Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Monday that he's "optimistic" that RB Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) and WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) will be back for Saturday night's Wild Card game vs. the Chiefs. Both guys missed the final two games of the regular season. We'll track their progress throughout the week. We have more concern about Waddle, who will be returning from a high-ankle sprain.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) is inactive for tonight’s game vs. the Bills. He’s expected back for next week’s Wild Card game. WR Cedrick Wilson stepped into a full-time role with Waddle out last week, catching two of four targets for 27 yards and a score.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) is not expected to play vs. the Bills tonight, NFL Network reports. Waddle returned to a limited practice on Friday but never seemed likely to play in this one just two weeks after suffering a high-ankle sprain. He is expected to be ready for next week's playoff opener, per NFL Network, although he's unlikely to be at 100%.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Bills. He returned to a limited practice on Friday after sitting out the previous two days. We’ll look for an update on Waddle’s status on Sunday morning. We won’t get Miami’s inactives until a little before 7 pm ET.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. He stretched with the team before practice but then headed off to rehab with trainers, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe. HC Mike McDaniel wouldn't rule Waddle out for Sunday night's game vs. the Bills, but we're tentatively expecting him to miss that one.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) will "most likely" miss Week 18's game vs. the Bills, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. That game will be for the AFC East title if Miami loses today and Buffalo wins. But Waddle's absence would not be a surprise considering he's dealing with a high-ankle sprain. Rapoport adds that Waddle is expected back for the playoff opener.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Ravens. He was always unlikely to play in this one and could also miss next weekend's regular-season finale vs. the Bills with his high-ankle sprain. WR Cedrick Wilson is the likely Waddle replacement but is no more than a cheap flier for DFS tournaments. WR Tyreek Hill and RBs Raheem Mostert and De'Von Achane are candidates for more targets with Waddle out.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel confirmed on Wednesday that WR Jaylen Waddle has a high-ankle sprain. "It's tough to rule him out for this week [due to his toughness]," McDaniel added. "It's a high ankle sprain. It's not overly severe. But [high-ankle sprains] are tough when you make a living on cutting." We'll track Waddle's status over the next few days, but consider him unlikely to play against the Ravens on Sunday.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Monday that WR Jaylen Waddle's injury, which was originally announced as a shin, is "more of a high-ankle sprain." If it's a true high-ankle sprain, Waddle will likely miss multiple weeks. We'll look for more on his status, but fantasy owners should plan on being without Waddle in Week 17.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle was knocked out of Sunday's win over the Cowboys by a third-quarter shin injury. He also missed some time earlier in the game after getting poked in the eye. We should learn more about the shin injury on Monday.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle went off for 8 catches, 142 yards, and 1 score in Sunday’s blowout win over the Jets. His score came on a well-thrown deep ball from Tua Tagovailoa. Waddle briefly left with a chest injury but returned to easily pace Miami in all major receiving categories. Of course, an inactive Tyreek Hill helped. We’re guessing Hill returns for Week 16 vs. Dallas, putting Waddle back in the WR2 mix.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle suffered an apparent chest injury on the first drive of Sunday's game vs. the Jets. He made his way off the field and into the blue medical tent. We'll update his status when we know more.
Update: Waddle returned later in the first quarter.
Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (ankle) is INACTIVE for today’s game vs. the Jets. He tried to give it a go but evidently didn’t feel well enough in pregame warmups. Hill’s absence removes 30% of Miami’s targets, 32% of the catches, 41% of the receiving yards, and 48% of the receiving TDs. It’s obviously a huge loss for QB Tua Tagovailoa, who is not a must-start against this tough Jets defense. The Dolphins figure to lean more on their run game today, while WR Jaylen Waddle and potentially the RBs get a boost in target share.
Despite seeing 8 targets, Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle underwhelmed in Sunday’s win over Vegas. The third-year WR managed 4 catches for 55 yards. His totals could have been higher, though, as Tua Tagovailoa overthrew him on a deep ball that was picked off. Waddle’s now been under 70 yards in six of his past seven outings. Aside from Week 13 at Washington and Week 14 vs. Tennessee, his rest-of-season schedule looks tough. As long as Tyreek Hill stays healthy, Waddle projects as a volatile WR2/3 down the stretch.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle hurt his left knee in the first quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Chiefs. He was able to get off the field under his own power and is officially questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.
Update: Waddle returned on Miami's next possession.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa went off for 324 yards, 3 TDs, and 1 INT in Sunday's win over New England. Tua wasn’t perfect in this one, as he threw at least one pass that should have been picked off. He also lost a fumble. Still, when you’re firing 56% of your targets at Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, good things are bound to happen. Sure enough, that duo alone combined for 15 catches, 233 yards, and 2 TDs. Tua’s remaining score went to Cedric Wilson at the goal line. Keep the young QB in lineups for a potential Week 9 shootout vs. Kansas City.
