Phinsider Radio show notes: Where could Duke Johnson make an impact? Tua time through 2021?

Phinsider Radio show notes for Oct. 28, 2021.

Who joins Miami’s rotation at running back?

• Patrick Laird, Gerrid Doaks and newly signed Duke Johnson are all options.
• Barry Jackson — Doaks or Laird seems more likely to be used this weekend than Johnson, who just arrived. The Dolphins protected Doaks from being poached by another team this week; they did not do so with Laird.

Duke Johnson

• Former Miami Hurricane, a third-round pick in 2015 draft
• Four years in Cleveland and two years in Houston
• Averages 4.2 yards per carry, eight touchdowns and 1931 rushing yards

Gaskin averages 4.5 yards per rush, Malcolm Brown 3.8

Gaskin long of 19, Brown long of 24 — the team’s only big run this season

• Shines are a receiver, 77 percent career reception percentage, 12 touchdowns and 9.2 yards per reception.

Gaskin is third on the team with 36 targets, Ahmed has 15.

Gaskin averages 5.2 yards per reception.
