Drake and Frank Gore are listed as co-starters on the Dolphins' depth chart ahead of the team's Week 1 matchup with the Titans.
Drake still profiles as the centerpiece of Miami's offense, but the depth-chart slotting does serve as a useful reminder of head coach Adam Gase's stated intention to give Gore a portion of the work. The biggest concern for Drake is the possibility of Gore poaching carries near the goal line, where the former's speed and agility-based skill set arguably loses value relative to what the stocky 35-year-old offers. Given that Gore barely played during the preseason, Week 1 will provide the first real hint of what can be expected from both backs throughout the campaign.
