Reverts to practice squad
Gaskin reverted to the Vikings' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
ANALYSIS
Gaskin played seven snaps Sunday (two on offense, five on special teams), and he lost three yards on his lone carry. Gaskin served as the No. 3 running back behind Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler, and he would likely reprise that role should he be elevated for Week 2 against the 49ers.

Gaskins' drop-off in production has been notable, as he racked up just 26 rushing yards in four games last season after having compiled 972 yards from scrimmage back in 2020. He then re-signed with Miami in the offseason but later ended up in Minnesota after the Dolphins cut him. Gaskin will now compete for a backup role behind Alexander Mattison, joining an inexperienced RB group that also includes Ty Chandler and Kene Nwangwu.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Likely to be cut
Gaskin figures to be released by the Dolphins after the team drafted Devon Achane, Barry Jackson of The Miami Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Achane joins Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson at the top of the depth chart at running back, and the trio figures to handle the vast majority of the touches in the Miami backfield. That leaves no role for Gaskin, who also has no guaranteed money left on his contract and would be easy to let go to make room for depth at another position.
