Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill led the team with a 26.6% target share in Week 9. As a result, he posted another monster fantasy line: 7 catches, 143 yards and 1 score. Hill continues to create separation with ease. And it’s hard to see a dud creeping up here, as a hyper-accurate Tua Tagovailoa continuously feeds his playmakers. Jaylen Waddle contributed 5-85-1, giving him 85+ yards in 4 straight. Both guys are top-5 PPR WRs entering a Week 10 date with Cleveland.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa returned Sunday night for his 1st game action since the scary concussion at Cincinnati in Week 4. He completed 21 of 35 passes in the win over the Steelers for 261 yards and 1 TD. Tagovailoa took nary a sack, avoided turnovers and even ran for 15 yards on 4 rushes. WR Tyreek Hill led the offense with 13 targets and 7 catches (for 72 yards), while WR Jaylen Waddle paced the group with 88 yards (on 5 targets, 4 receptions). TE Mike Gesicki drew 7 targets for the 2nd straight game but managed just 3 catches for 27 yards. The whole group gets a high-ceiling matchup at Detroit in Week 8, with solid-to-good spots the next 2 weeks as well vs. Chicago and Cleveland.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Steelers. He was limited in practice all week, adding some risk to his fantasy profile. But Waddle is available if you were waiting on him.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Steelers. That late kickoff could put fantasy owners in a tough spot. We’ll look for an update on Waddle’s status on Sunday morning.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We're expecting him to play vs. the Steelers on Sunday night, but we'll see how he's listed on the final injury report tomorrow.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He banged that shoulder up late in last week's loss to the Vikings but was able to return. Waddle should be fine for Sunday night's game vs. the Steelers, but we'll get another update on his status tomorrow.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle suffered an apparent left shoulder injury last in Sunday's game vs. the Vikings. Stay tuned for an update.
Update: Waddle returned in the 4th quarter.
Dolphins WRs Tyreek Hill (quad, foot) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) were full participants in practice all week and are not listed on the final injury report. Both guys should be ready for full-time roles vs. the Vikings on Sunday, although QB Skylar Thompson adds volatility to the situation.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) put in a full practice on Wednesday -- his 1st since prior to Week 3. The groin shouldn't be any issue in this Sunday's game vs. the Vikings.
Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that he plans to start QB Skylar Thompson vs. the Vikings this weekend. McDaniel said QB Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) will be inactive for that one. QB Teddy Bridgewater has a chance to clear concussion protocol by Sunday but would back up Thompson in that case. Thompson is a 7th-round rookie out of Kansas State, where he posted a 62% completion rate and 8.0 yards per attempt across 5 seasons. Thompson had an impressive preseason, ranking 15th among 77 QBs in Pro Football Focus' passing grades. He went 19-of-33 (58%) for 166 yards (5.0 YPA), 0 TDs and 1 INT in relief of Bridgewater vs. the Jets last week. Thompson is just a low-end QB2 for Week 6 and should be considered a downgrade for Miami's skill-position guys.
Miami WRs lost their starting QB for the 2nd straight game Sunday, when Teddy Bridgewater left after his 1st snap with a concussion and an elbow injury. Tyreek Hill still managed to catch all 7 of his targets for the game, though he gained only 47 yards. Jaylen Waddle caught all 3 of his targets for 23 yards. We'll see What the QB situation is for Week 6 against Minnesota.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Jets. He played his usual allotment of snaps with this injury last week, so we’re not expecting it to be a big factor today.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Dolphins WRs Tyreek Hill (quad) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) are expected to play vs. the Jets today. Both guys carry elevated risk after limited weeks of practice, but you'd need to be stacked at WR to consider benching either guy. Both boast big upside in this plus matchup.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) is questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Jets. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. Waddle played through this issue last week, registering his usual snap rate but catching just 2 balls for 39 yards. The floor here is lower than usual, but Waddle still has big upside in a plus matchup vs. the Jets.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He's on track to play vs. the Jets this weekend, but it'd be nice to see him get in a full practice tomorrow.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) did not practice on Wednesday. He played through this issue last Thursday night, but it's at least slightly concerning that he's not practicing coming off the long week. We'll see if Waddle gets back on the field tomorrow.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) is active for tonight's game against the Bengals. He never seemed to consider it in doubt. Use Waddle as planned in fantasy football lineups.
Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa (back, ankle) is expected to play vs. the Bengals tonight, "barring a setback," according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. It's safe to assume that Tua won't be at 100%, though, adding some risk to his Week 4 fantasy profile. Pelissero also confirms that WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) "should be good to go" for tonight.
The Dolphins list WR Jaylen Waddle (groin) as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Bengals. He got in limited practices on Tuesday and Wednesday. We've seen nothing to suggest that Waddle is in danger of missing this one, but you'll need to check back tomorrow around 7 pm ET to make sure he's active.
Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle recorded 4 grabs for 102 yards in a Week 3 win over Buffalo. He was on his way to busting before catching downfield balls of 32 and 45 yards in the 4th quarter, the latter of which came on 3rd and 22. His 6 targets (on 20 team pass attempts) paced the team on a day that turned up only 39(!) offensive plays. That helped contribute to a dud from Tyreek Hill (2-33), who had an 8-yard catch wiped out on a questionable penalty. Waddle and Hill remain top-15 fantasy WRs moving forward.
