Kansas City Chiefs defeat Miami Dolphins as De’Von Achane suffers season-ending injury

The Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Miami Dolphins 24-10 at Hard Rock Stadium, improving to a 3-0 record for the season. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs with 246 passing yards and two touchdowns, connecting with Kenneth Walker III and Travis Kelce.

The game was marked by a significant injury to Dolphins star running back De’Von Achane. During an 11-yard run in the first quarter, Achane suffered a torn ACL. Medical testing confirmed the injury, which will end his 2026 season. Achane, who recently signed a four-year, $64 million contract extension, was a central figure in the Dolphins' offense.

Following Achane's exit, Ollie Gordon II took on a larger role for Miami, recording 41 rushing yards and a touchdown. The Dolphins' loss drops them to 0-3 on the season, intensifying their rebuilding process. The Chiefs' victory highlights a balanced offensive approach, though some analysts noted concerns regarding their ground game and defensive line performance.
