Dolphins running back De'Von Achane did not attend the first day of voluntary offseason workouts on Tuesday.
'It's part of the business,' new head coach Jeff Hafley told reporters.
Achane, 24, is entering the final year of his rookie contract and is looking for a long-term extension.
'Those are talks for another time between Achane and Sully (general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan) ... that's part of the business, it's part of what every team goes through. They'll work it out,' Hafley said.
The Dolphins overhauled their offense this offseason under Hafley and Sullivan, trading or releasing veterans such as quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receivers Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill.
Achane is expected to play a featured role alongside new quarterback Malik Willis and new offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik.
A third-round draft pick in 2023, Achane ran for a career-high 1,350 yards (fifth in the NFL) and eight touchdowns and made his first Pro Bowl last season. He led the league with 5.7 yards per carry and added 67 catches for 488 yards and four scores in 16 starts.
Achane has gained 4,334 yards from scrimmage and scored 35 touchdowns in 44 career games (36 starts). He has rushed for more than 100 yards 10 times, including a career-high 203 yards with four total TDs as a 2023 rookie in a 70-20 blowout of the Denver Broncos.
