Jaylen Waddle Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill is believed to have suffered a dislocated knee in Monday night's game vs. the Jets, according to multiple reports. He was transported from the stadium to the hospital to confirm that diagnosis and start getting treatment. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport notes that this injury "often comes with multiple ligament tears." Hill's 2025 season is over, and it's fair to wonder about his football career. He turns 32 in March.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill suffered a gruesome left knee injury in the third quarter of Monday night's game vs. the Jets. Trainers rushed to stabilize the knee in an air cast before Hill was carted off the field. This looks like a season-ending injury, but we'll update Hill's status when we know more. It's a huge loss for the Dolphins offense and will open up considerable target opportunity for WRs Jaylen Waddle, Malik Washington, and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, TE Darren Waller, and RB De'Von Achane.

There's "optimism" that Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) will be able to play vs. the Bills on Thursday night, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Waddle is listed as questionable after being limited in practice on Tuesday and Wednesday. "Waddle will test his shoulder pregame" before a final decision is made, Rapoport adds. "They hope he is able to go, but no guarantees early on." We'll get Miami's inactives around 7 pm ET tonight. Waddle will carry elevated risk in fantasy lineups if he does suit up. See where he lands in the Week 3 WR rankings.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Bills. He was not listed on the injury report on Monday, but he was added on Tuesday and limited in the final two practices of the week.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle suffered an apparent left shoulder injury in the third quarter of Sunday's opener vs. the Colts. He was in obvious discomfort as he worked his way off the field. We'll update Waddle's status when we know more.

Update: Waddle returned on Miami's next possession.

Dolphins TE Darren Waller had a setback with his hip injury before Thursday's practice and is "doubtful" to play vs. the Colts this weekend, HC Mike McDaniel said Friday. It's an inauspicious start for Waller, who came out of retirement to join the Fins in early July. He's not worth rostering outside of the deepest of fantasy leagues. Waller's absence in the opener will just mean more targets for WRs Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle and RB De'Von Achane. Julian Hill and Tanner Conner will handle TE duties for Miami.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill missed his third consecutive practice on Friday due to an oblique injury, according to David Furones of Sun Sentinel.

The Dolphins have traded TE Jonnu Smith, CB Jalen Ramsey, and a 2027 Round 7 pick to the Steelers in exchange for S Minkah Fitzpatrick and a 2027 Round 5 pick.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Jets. He practiced all week, including a full workout on Friday, so the knee shouldn’t be a major issue. But Waddle is a shaky WR3 with QB Tyler Huntley under center.

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that the team is preparing QB Tyler Huntley to start this weekend's game vs. the Jets. QB Tua Tagovailoa will be limited in practice on Wednesday with his hip injury, and it sounds like he hasn't been ruled out for Week 18 yet. But fantasy owners should be planning as if it'll be Huntley under center again for now. He played well in the Week 17 win over the Browns, completing 22 of 26 passes (85%) for 225 yards (8.7 YPA) and one TD, adding another 52 yards and a score on the ground. Just as importantly, the Dolphins stayed pass-heavy, registering a +11% pass rate over expected. That makes it easier to trust guys like WR Tyreek Hill and TE Jonnu Smith in Week 18 fantasy lineups, although Huntley is still a downgrade from Tagovailoa.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist, rest) is active for today’s game vs. the Browns. WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) is inactive. His absence gives Hill and TE Jonnu Smith potential target boosts. But both guys took big hits in the Week 17 Rankings with QB Tua Tagovailoa out.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport calls Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) "unlikely" to play vs. the Browns this afternoon. Waddle is listed as questionable after returning to limited practices on Thursday and Friday. He wouldn't have been a recommended fantasy play with QB Tyler Huntley anyway. Rookie Malik Washington should again operate as Miami's No. 2 WR today but isn't a viable fantasy option in any format.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Browns. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. HC Mike McDaniel sounded optimistic about Waddle’s availability for this one on Friday. We’ll look for further updates on him but won’t get Miami’s inactives until a little after 2:30 pm ET on Sunday. We’re currently projecting Waddle to play, but he lands outside the top 40 WRs in the Week 17 Rankings.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) returned to a limited practice on Thursday -- his first since going down in Week 15. That gives Waddle a chance to play against the Browns this weekend. We'll see what he does in Friday's practice and how he's listed on the final injury report.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should not be counting on him to play vs the Browns this weekend.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist, personal) is active for today’s game vs. the 49ers. He did not practice on Wednesday, was a full participant on Thursday, but then was limited on Friday. Hill, of course, has been playing through the wrist issue for much of the season. He seems fine to keep in Week 16 fantasy lineups, especially with WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) inactive.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the 49ers. Waddle has had an underwhelming season and ranks just fourth among Dolphins in targets. But he still leaves behind 5.3 targets per game. His absence means added target upside for WR Tyreek Hill, TE Jonnu Smith, and RB De'Von Achane. Rookie Malik Washington figures to slide in as Miami's No. 2 WR but is really only in play in DFS tournaments.
