Two grabs in Week 11 win
Waddle secured two of three targets for 37 yards in the Dolphins' 34-19 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle recorded double-digit gains on both his catches, but he was once again very modestly involved. The 2021 first-round pick hasn't topped 57 receiving yards since Week 1 despite being healthy and holding down his usual No. 2 receiver role, but he'll have a fresh opportunity to bounce back against a vulnerable Patriots defense at home in Week 12.

Paces pass catches in win
Waddle brought in three of six targets for 57 yards and rushed once for minus-1 yard in the Dolphins' 23-15 win over the Rams on Monday night.
Analysis: Waddle tied Jonnu Smith for the team lead in receptions while setting the pace in both receiving yards and targets. The fourth-year pro's yardage tally was his second highest of the season, with his 109-yard effort in Week 1 the only one to eclipse it. Waddle now has six targets in two of Tua Tagovailoa's first three games back from his IR stint, giving the wideout some momentum and an optimistic outlook heading into a Week 11 home matchup against the Raiders.

Snaps TD drought in loss
Waddle caught both of his targets for minus-4 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Waddle wasn't targeted until just 2:34 remained in the fourth quarter, when he made a 12-yard catch to convert a third-and-7. He had an injury scare on the very next play, when Waddle stayed down after Damar Hamlin fell on his leg, but the wide receiver stayed in the game and proceeded to catch a game-tying seven-yard touchdown with 1:38 remaining. Unfortunately for Waddle's fantasy managers, he was credited with a 23-yard loss on the game's final play, as he got the ball on a lateral and ran…read more

Stays quiet in Tua's return
Waddle caught four of six targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: Waddle's fantasy managers had high hopes for a bounce back in Tua Tagovailoa's (concussion) return, but Waddle put forth yet another subpar outing as the Dolphins fell to 2-5. After posting 109 receiving yards in Week 1 against the Jaguars, Waddle hasn't exceeded 46 yards in any subsequent game. He'll try to snap that unsavory streak in a Week 9 road game against the Bills.

Cleared for Week 8 along with Tua
Waddle (quadriceps) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cardinals after being a full participant in practice Friday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Waddle avoided an injury designation with an uncapped practice Friday after limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday. He has a nice opportunity to break out of his slump with Miami getting Tua Tagovailoa back under center for the first time since Week 2 after the starting quarterback cleared concussion protocol.

Another limited practice
Waddle (quad) remained limited at practice Thursday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: While Waddle maintained his practice level from Wednesday, Tyreek Hill was added to Miami's injury report Thursday after being limited by a foot injury. The duo's status thus is worth tracking ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals. If Waddle is available this weekend, his fantasy prospects could be looking up, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) trending toward a return from IR.

Limited participant to begin Week 8
Waddle was a limited participant in practice Wednesday due to a quadricep injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Waddle still has two opportunities to upgrade to full practice participation, which would put him in position to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. Meanwhile, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returned to practice Wednesday for the first time since Week 2, and the expectation is that he'll clear the five-step concussion protocol and return from injured reserve to start Sunday. Waddle would stand to benefit substantially from Tagovailoa's return under…read more

Nonfactor in Week 7 loss
Waddle secured one of two targets for 11 yards during Miami's 16-10 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle and Tyreek Hill combined for just two catches and 19 yards on four targets. Coming off a bye, the Dolphins' offense turned in yet another miserable performance despite facing off against a vulnerable Colts secondary, with the mid-game departure of Tyler Huntley (shoulder) only compounding the issues for Miami's passing game. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) will be eligible to return from IR as early as Week 8 against the Cardinals, but it's unclear when Miami anticipates the franchise…read more

Four grabs in win
Waddle brought in four of eight targets for 46 yards in the Dolphins' 15-10 win over the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle checked in tied for second in targets and third in both receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for the Dolphins, flashing some improved chemistry with quarterback Tyler Huntley. The upside of Waddle and the other members of the Dolphins' air attack is naturally capped without Tua Tagovailoa (IR-concussion), but the fourth-year wideout heads into a Week 6 bye with no fewer than four receptions in any game this season, albeit while exceeding 41 receiving yards only once. Waddle…read more

Team-high yardage total in loss
Waddle secured four of six targets for 36 yards in the Dolphins' 31-12 loss to the Titans on Monday night.
Analysis: Miami's offense ironically got off on a very good foot with 30 yards over its first two plays, and Waddle accounted for 14 of those on the Dolphins' first play from scrimmage. However, much like the team as a whole, it would go on to be a quiet and largely unproductive night for Waddle, who did record an 18-yard grab in the fourth quarter but gained just four yards on his other two catches. Like fellow wideout Tyreek Hill, Waddle doesn't figure to come close to flashing his true potential while…read more

Another modest showing Sunday
Waddle secured four of five targets for 26 yards in the Dolphins' 24-3 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.
Analysis: Like his position mate Tyreek Hill, Waddle saw his considerable upside capped by having to play with Skylar Thompson (ribs), and upon the latter's exit from the contest, Tim Boyle, as his two quarterbacks. Waddle now has back-to-back four-reception outings, and he's netted a forgettable 67 receiving yards in that pair of contests. There's not much reason for optimism in the short term, either, as Tua Tagovailoa's (IR-concussion) future is in limbo and Thompson may have an uphill battle to be…read more

Four catches in Week 2 loss
Waddle brought in all four targets for 41 yards and rushed once for four yards in the Dolphins' 31-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.
Analysis: Considering how ineffective Tua Tagovailoa was in an injury-shortened three-interception performance and the fact Waddle was pulled from the game early due to the lopsided score, the fourth-year wideout's numbers weren't a complete washout. Waddle actually outproduced position mate Tyreek Hill (3-24-0) through the air, but his numbers still were a far cry from his 5-109-0 line Week 1 versus the Jaguars. Waddle will look to boost his numbers back up with either Tagovailoa or Skylar Thompson as…read more

Clears 100-yard mark in Week 1 win
Waddle brought in all five targets for 109 yards in the Dolphins' 20-17 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He also rushed once for three yards.
Analysis: Waddle was overshadowed by fellow wideout Tyreek Hill -- who finished with seven receptions for 130 yards and a touchdown -- but the fourth-year pro made quite an impact in his own right. The Alabama product connected with Tua Tagovailoa for a big 63-yard reception to start an early third-quarter drive, and he also played a key role in a late second-quarter march that resulted in the Dolphins' first touchdown by drawing a pass interference penalty and subsequently recording a 20-yard grab.…read more

Not on Week 1 injury report
Waddle (undisclosed) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: The Dolphins took a cautious approach to Waddle's recovery from an undisclosed injury for most of training camp, and the star receiver is now fully healthy to begin the regular season. The same goes for Tyreek Hill (thumb), so Tua Tagovailoa will have both his top pass-catching options available for Sunday's season opener against the Jaguars. Meanwhile, both Odell Beckham (undisclosed) and River Cracraft (upper body) will miss at least the first four games of the season, while rookie Malik…read more

Practicing, has no setbacks
Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Waddle (undisclosed) and Tyreek Hill (thumb) will both practice and have had "no setbacks," Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Analysis: McDaniel seems to be indicating that Hill and Waddle, both of whom have been held out of practice recently due to minor injuries, remain on track to suit up for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Jaguars. Waddle practiced in a non-contact jersey last week, but it seems likely that his activity level will now be ramping up. If McDaniel doesn't offer more information on the health of Miami's star wide receivers earlier, Wednesday's official practice report will reveal more about the…read more

Still in non-contact jersey
Waddle (undisclosed) is practicing in a red non-contact jersey Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Waddle has been managing an undisclosed minor injury since early August, so while it's encouraging to see him still taking some reps, fantasy managers are eager for the star playmaker to resume practicing fully. The Dolphins are taking a cautious approach to Waddle's health, but with just 12 days remaining before the regular-season opener against Jacksonville on Sept. 8, next week seems like a reasonable target for Waddle to begin truly ramping up his workload. With Odell Beckham (undisclosed)…read more

Practicing with non-contact jersey
Waddle (undisclosed) is wearing a non-contact jersey Monday at practice, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Waddle's participation in any fashion is a good sign for the Dolphins, 13 days ahead of their regular-season opener against Jacksonville. The WR room has been hit by injury after injury this summer, but it seems Waddle and Tyreek Hill (hand) are on track to be ready for Week 1, leaving the lower portion of the depth chart as the bigger question mark.

Back at practice Wednesday
Waddle (undisclosed) is practicing in full pads Wednesday and confirmed that he's nursing a minor injury, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: It's unclear whether Waddle participated in team drills Wednesday, per Omar Kelly of The Miami Herald, but in any case, it's encouraging to see the star wide receiver back at practice for the first time since Aug. 7. Waddle also noted that his undisclosed injury wouldn't have limited him during the regular season, but that the Dolphins opted for caution during the preseason. Friday's exhibition game against the Buccaneers will be Waddle's final chance to play during the preseason.

Still sidelined at practice
Waddle (undisclosed) did not practice Tuesday, Barry Jackson and Omar Kelly of The Miami Herald report.
Analysis: Waddle has missed roughly two weeks of practice due to an undisclosed injury which coach Mike McDaniel labeled as minor. It still doesn't seem like Waddle's status for Week 1 is in jeopardy, but the standout wide receiver could be in danger of missing his final opportunity to log preseason game reps, which will come Friday versus the Buccaneers.

Dealing with minor injury
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that Waddle is missing practice this week due to a minor, unspecified injury, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: McDaniel made it clear he doesn't consider the injury serious, noting that Waddle and Braxton Berrios are dealing with "minor stuff" and nothing more. The Dolphins are four and a half weeks out from their season opener Sept. 8 against Jacksonville, at which point Waddle should make his first regular-season appearance since signing a three-year, $84.75 million extension in May.

Signs lucrative extension
Waddle signed a three-year, $84.75 million contract extension with the Dolphins on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The deal includes $76 million guaranteed.
Analysis: Waddle is now one of the top five highest-paid receivers in the NFL with an annual salary of $28.25 million. The 2021 first-round pick has been dominant since entering the league, ripping off three straight seasons with 1,000-plus yards, including a 2022 campaign where he produced 1,356 yards and eight touchdowns across 17 regular-season games. The 25-year-old battled injuries last season but is fully healthy ahead of the 2024 campaign. Waddle is still the clear No. 2 receiver behind Tyreek…read more

Miami picks up fifth-year option
The Dolphins officially exercised Waddle's fifth-year option Monday.
Analysis: Miami has made no secret of plans to pick up Waddle's fifth-year option this offseason, and the move is now official prior to Thursday's deadline. That keeps the third-year standout under contract for two more seasons and provides the Dolphins more time to negotiate a long-term deal with Waddle.

Fifth-year option to be exercised
General manager Chris Grier said Tuesday that he expects the Dolphins to pick up Waddle's fifth-year option, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Dolphins have consistently stated a desire to come to terms with Waddle on a long-term contract, and Grier specifically dismissed trade rumors earlier this offseason. The third-year pro has recorded three straight 1,000-yard seasons to begin his career, becoming the first wideout to do so in franchise history, and there's little question of his value as a No. 2 read behind Tyreek Hill. Picking up Waddle's fifth-year option will keep him under contract with the Dolphins for two more seasons.

Wanted long term in Miami
General manager Chris Grier said Wednesday that the Dolphins have "no thoughts of trading [Waddle]," Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Grier dismissed recent rumors of Waddle being a trade candidate, saying "he'll be around here for a long time." Teammate Tyreek Hill recently weighed in on social media to dispel talk about such a trade, as did Waddle himself, so it's unsurprising to see the Dolphins' brass take a similar stance. The third-year pro recently became the first wideout in Miami's history to record three straight 1,000-yard seasons, posting a 72-1,014-4 receiving line across 14 regular-season games in 2023.

Quiet finish to season
Waddle (ankle) brought in two of five targets for 31 yards and rushed once for nine yards in the Dolphins' 26-7 wild-card loss to the Chiefs on Saturday night.
Analysis: Waddle was able to suit up after putting in three limited practices during the week following a two-game absence to close out the regular season. However, as his final numbers indicate, the third-year pro wasn't able to make any appreciable impact in the frigid temperatures.

Analysis: Waddle pushed to play Week 18 against the Bills, but Miami's medical staff advised against it, suggesting he could do more harm than good. The week of rest sounds like it will be good for Waddle, who has battled various minor injuries for most of the season.

High-ankle sprain not severe
Head coach Mike McDaniel noted Wednesday that Waddle is dealing with a high-ankle sprain that isn't "overly severe," Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Though high-ankle injuries often force at least one-game absences for players like Waddle who are highly reliant on speed and the ability to change direction, McDaniel isn't yet discounting the possibility of the receiver being able to play Sunday against the Ravens. That said, Waddle's practice participation this week will be affected by the ankle issue, and he seems likely to carry an injury designation into the weekend if he isn't ruled out for the game at the conclusion of Friday's…read more

May have high-ankle injury
Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Waddle may have suffered a high-ankle injury during Sunday's 22-20 win against the Cowboys, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Waddle first departed in Week 16 due to an eye injury, but after he was cleared to return, he eventually exited again due to what was called a shin issue at the time. After further testing, the Dolphins are honing in on the nature of the concern, and if he's diagnosed with the injury mentioned by McDaniel on Monday, Waddle could be in line for an absence of some kind. Wednesday's practice report will reveal how much work, if any, Waddle was able to handle as the team begins prep for Sunday's…read more

Set for evaluation Monday
Waddle is set to undergo further evaluation Monday after exiting Sunday's 22-20 win over the Cowboys in the third quarter with a shin injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The fact that the wideout wasn't able to check back into a closely contested game despite being listed as questionable to return is a discouraging sign. Before exiting the game, Waddle hauled in one of four targets for 50 yards over 28 snaps, with his production taking a noticeable hit from the week prior (season-high 142 receiving yards on eight catches) following the return of No. 1 wideout Tyreek Hill from an ankle injury. Even if Waddle's evaluation reveals no significant injury, his…read more

Waddle caught eight of nine targets for 142 yards in Sunday's 30-0 win over the Jets.
Analysis: With Tyreek Hill (ankle) sitting out for the first time this season, Waddle stepped up with his highest yardage total of 2023. Waddle briefly went to the blue medical tent to have his chest examined in the first quarter, but the receiver said after the game that he just had the wind knocked out of him, per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel.

Back in Sunday's game
Waddle (chest) returned to Sunday's game versus the Jets, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Waddle missed a stretch of plays in the first quarter after enduring a hard fall on a long completion that was negated by an offensive penalty, but after being tending to on the turf and going to the sideline tent, he was able to rejoin his teammates on the field. He'll thus be the Dolphins' top pass catcher for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa with Tyreek Hill (ankle) inactive.

Leading receiver as Hill plays hurt
Waddle caught six of eight targets for 79 yards in Monday's 28-27 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Waddle exited for a few plays in the first quarter after taking a big hit at the end of a 16-yard catch over the middle, but he returned later on the same drive. Tyreek Hill (ankle) then left the game on the following possession, leaving Waddle as Miami's top wideout until Hill's return in the third quarter.

Modest yardage in big win
Waddle brought in five of eight targets for 52 yards in the Dolphins' 45-15 win over the Commanders on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle tied with Tyreek Hill for the team lead in receptions while setting the pace in targets, but the disparity between the two receivers' final production was stark considering Hill's gaudy 157-yardage tally. Waddle's middling day was particularly disappointing considering his 114-yard day in Week 12 against the Jets, and outside of his two 100-yard efforts, he's been limited to 63 yards or fewer in seven of his last nine contests.

Tops 100 yards in Week 12 win
Waddle caught all eight of his targets for 114 yards in Friday's 34-13 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Waddle shrugged off a tough matchup with a Jets secondary that came in allowing the fewest fantasy points in the league to wide receivers, as he set a season high in catches while coming seven yards short of his season high. This was only Waddle's second 100-yard performance of 2023 after he posted six such games last season.

Contained to four catches Sunday
Waddle secured four of eight targets for 55 yards in the Dolphins' 20-13 in over the Raiders on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle was a distant second to Tyreek Hill in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, but he still averaged a solid 13.8 yards per grab. The third-year speedster flashed with a season-high 121-yard performance in Week 9, but he's combined for just 97 receiving yards on 14 targets over the subsequent pair of contests. Waddle will look to bump his production back up in a Week 12 Black Friday road divisional matchup against a stingy Jets secondary.

Held to three catches
Waddle recorded three catches on six targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Waddle suffered a knee injury early in the contest, but he was able to quickly return to the field. That didn't lead to much production, however, as the Miami offense was held back offensively by a strong Kansas City defense. As a result, Waddle's streak of three games with at least 50 receiving yards came to an end.

The wideout was able to walk off the field under his own power, but immediately headed into a medical tent for further evaluation.

Team-high yardage total in win
Waddle secured seven of 12 targets for 121 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 31-17 win over the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle led the Dolphins in receiving yards on the afternoon, with the exclamation point coming via a 31-yard scoring grab in the fourth quarter, his third score of the season. All of Waddle's end-zone trips this season have come within the last four contests, and Sunday's performance also qualified as his first 100-yard tally of the campaign.

The 2021 first-round draft pick has had an injury-filled third NFL season thus far.

Waddle exited Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Eagles in the second quarter with an apparent back injury. He was able to return after halftime, finishing with six receptions on as many targets for 63 yards.
Analysis: Waddle was seen favoring his back on the sidelines in the second quarter before being taken to the locker room for further treatment. It appears that the Dolphins' No. 2 wideout avoided serious injury, as he was able to return in the second half and tack on four more receptions to his final total.

Finds end zone in win
Waddle secured five of 10 targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 31-16 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle drew a team-high number of targets and recorded his first touchdown of the season on a two-yard grab just past the midway point of the first quarter. The third-year pro's modest 7.0 yards per reception was a season-low figure by a wide margin, but the amount of attention he's drawing from Tua Tagovailoa -- 26 targets through four games played -- is certainly encouraging. Waddle should have a good opportunity for a bump in his production during a Week 6 home matchup against the Panthers.

Four catches in return to action
Waddle brought in four of five targets for 46 yards in the Dolphins' 48-20 loss to the Bills on Sunday.
Analysis: Making his return after a Week 3 absence due to a concussion, Waddle was relatively quiet but still finished as the runner-up or tied for second on the team in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The third-year wideout's day was serviceable, especially in the context of an afternoon during which Tua Tagovailoa spread the ball around to eight different pass catchers. Waddle should have a good chance of improving on Sunday's modest numbers in a Week 5 home battle versus the Giants.

Miami proved it can get by just fine without him, but the Dolphins still would welcome Waddle back with open arms for the team's pivotal clash with the AFC East rival Bills on Sunday.

Analysis: Waddle was limited during Wednesday's session, but the wideout's ability to take every rep Thursday puts him on track to be available for Sunday's game against the Patriots. He'll combine with Tyreek Hill to give Miami's offense a formidable one-two combination at receiver.

Waddle recorded four catches on five targets for 78 yards in Sunday's 36-34 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Waddle looked to be in for a big game, as he ripped off a 35-yard gain on Miami's opening drive. It's not overly surprising that he was overshadowed by Tyreek Hill from there, though Waddle was also out-targeted by Durham Smythe. Despite the limited volume, he still managed a fairly productive game thanks to his big-play ability, as half of his receptions went for more than 20 yards.

Expects to play Week 1
Waddle (abdomen) said Tuesday he's "feeling good" and expects to suit up Week 1 versus the Chargers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Waddle has never truly seemed in danger of missing the regular-season opener, but it's encouraging to hear him confirm as much. The third-year wideout was limited at practice Tuesday, roughly three weeks after his initial abdominal injury. Barring any setbacks, Waddle is on track to suit up as one of Tua Tagovailoa's undisputed top two targets, alongside Tyreek Hill, in what could be a high-scoring affair in Los Angeles.

Limited in practice
Waddle (abdomen) was at practice Tuesday but didn't have a helmet during the media-access portion, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Analysis: The Dolphins still have more than a week to go before they need to release their first official injury report ahead of a Week 1 road game against the Chargers. It's been about three weeks now since Waddle first left practice early with a midsection injury that ended up keeping him out of preseason action. Recent appearances in practice, even on a limited basis, suggest he's on track for Week 1.

At practice, without pads
Waddle (abdomen) is present at Thursday's practice, but he isn't wearing pads and isn't expected to play in Saturday's preseason game against Jacksonville, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Dolphins reportedly are optimistic he'll be ready for Week 1 against the Chargers, and it's a good sign that he's hanging around the main practice field rather than staying indoors or being restricted to the rehab field. The Miami offense remains hugely dependent on Waddle and Tyreek Hill, with shaky depth at WR and no established receiving threat at TE or RB.

Optimism for Week 1
The Dolphins are optimistic Waddle (abdomen) will be able to play in Week 1 against the Chargers, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: "It's not ideal," WRs coach Wes Welker said of Waddle missing extended practice time. "I'm not too worried about it. It's more about his health and making sure he's ready to go." The third-year player hasn't practiced the last two weeks and won't play in the preseason finale. Any sort of missed time for Waddle would be bad news for Miami's top-heavy depth chart. Braxton Berrios, Cedrick Wilson, Robbie Chosen and River Cracraft are next up on the depth chart.

Won't play Saturday
Waddle (abdomen) is not in line to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Texans.
Analysis: Waddle has been missing practice of late, so his looming Saturday absence is not surprising. While the 2021 first-rounder isn't slated to see action versus Houston, fellow WR Tyreek Hill isn't among those listed by the Dolphins as not expected to play. Waddle's final opportunity to log exhibition action will arrive Aug. 26 against the Jaguars.

No-go for joint practices
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that Waddle (abdomen) won't participate in joint practices with the Texans this week, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: McDaniel tempered concerns by saying that Waddle wants to practice, but the team has decided to be cautious with the wideout, per Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site. Still, fantasy managers will be anxious to see the third-year wideout back as a full practice participant soon, with just under a month remaining before the Sept. 10 season opener against the Chargers. Waddle is dealing with an abdomen injury sustained in practices last week, and he looks likely to sit out the…read more

No timetable for return
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Sunday that Waddle (abdomen) doesn't have a return timetable, but he's happy with where the wideout is at in his rehab process, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Waddle left Wednesday's joint practice with Atlanta after suffering a midsection injury, and McDaniel initially said that the wideout was "fine." However, it's not surprising to see Miami proceed with an abundance of caution with one of its top offensive weapons. Waddle's next chance to suit up for game action will come Saturday in Houston, but the Dolphins may just shut him down for the remainder of preseason action to ensure he's as close to 100 percent as possible for the regular season.

Dealing with midsection injury
Coach Mike McDaniel said after Friday's 19-3 preseason loss to the Falcons that Waddle is "fine" following a midsection injury he suffered earlier this week, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Waddle left Wednesday's joint practice with Atlanta due to a health concern that McDaniel now has clarified. It's thus no surprise that Miami held out Waddle along with fellow wide receiver Tyreek Hill in its exhibition opener. The team likely will exercise caution with Waddle with the aim to get him some preseason action in one of its two final games before Week 1.

Not slated to play Friday
Waddle (undisclosed) is not in line to see action in Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons.
Analysis: Waddle left Wednesday's practice with an unspecified issue, but either way, it seems unlikely he would have played in the contest, with other key players like top QB Tua Tagovailoa, fellow WR Tyreek Hill and RBs Raheem Mostert and Jeff Wilson (undisclosed) also slated to sit this one out. Waddle's next chance to see preseason action will occur next Saturday against the Texans.

Exits Wednesday's practice
Waddle left Wednesday's practice with an apparent injury, though he headed to the locker room under his own power while being accompanied by trainers, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Wolfe notes that Waddle appeared to be holding his side as he left the field. Until further information is available, consider the wideout day-to-day as Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons approaches. Per Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa said that he hopes Waddle's injury will only sideline him a few days, though Tagovailoa couldn't confirm the severity of the issue.

Looking good at camp
Waddle's route running has been a highlight at training camp, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Analysis: Waddle played through a number of lingering injuries in 2022, but he's shown no signs of being anything less than in full form this offseason. It remains to be seen whether the standout receiver will suit up for preseason action, or whether Miami's first-team offense will get most of its reps leading up to the regular season in practice. Whatever the case, Waddle remains clearly atop the Dolphins' receiving depth chart alongside Tyreek Hill. The wideout tandem looks primed for a dominant target…read more

Banged up in defeat
Waddle caught three of seven targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Bills in the wild-card round. He also rushed once for eight yards.
Analysis: Waddle dropped what would've been a long gain on Miami's first throw of the game. He later picked up a shoulder injury while failing to make a contested catch, but Waddle played on during the second half, when he nearly scored with his lone rushing attempt. Although it wasn't Waddle's most productive day, his second season was still a big success, as he finished with 75 catches on 117 targets for 1,356 yards and eight touchdowns despite Tyreek Hill joining him in Miami's receiving corps.…read more

All clear for playoff debut
Waddle (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's road playoff game against the Bills.
Analysis: Waddle practiced fully Friday and will make his postseason debut. The 24-year-old wide receiver will be catching passes from rookie seventh-round pick Skylar Thompson in the wild-card round, as Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has been ruled out and Teddy Bridgewater (finger/knee) will dress in a backup role, if he suits up at all. Waddle could also be called upon to return kicks with Raheem Mostert (thumb) unavailable.

Waddle (ankle) remained limited at practice Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: In the wake of back-to-back limited practice listings, Waddle probably will need to work fully Friday in order to approach Sunday's playoff game against the Bills minus an injury designation.

Dealing with minor ankle issue
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that he'd "be very surprised" if Waddle (ankle) is unable to play Sunday against the Bills, Adam H. Beasley of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Waddle finished Sunday's regular-season finale with five receptions for 44 yards, but he appears to have picked up an ankle injury as well. He played 75 percent of Miami's offensive snaps during the win over the Jets, which is right around his season average, so it doesn't appear like the injury limited him Week 18 or will impact his availability for the wild-card round.

Waddle secured all five targets for 44 yards in the Dolphins' 11-6 win over the Jets on Sunday. He also rushed once for nine yards.
Analysis: Waddle worked perfectly in concert with rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson, pacing the Dolphins in receptions and checking in second in yardage and tied for second in targets. The second-year speedster finishes the regular campaign with 29 fewer receptions than his rookie tally of 104 -- unsurprising given Tyreek Hill's arrival this offseason -- but with new career highs of 1,356 receiving yards and eight touchdowns.

As the Dolphins aim to secure a playoff spot Sunday, Waddle will be working with third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson, whom head coach Mike McDaniel named the team's Week 18 starter with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) ruled out and with Teddy Bridgewater (finger/knee) listed as questionable and expected to be…read more

Waddle (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Though Waddle's reps have been capped both of the past two days, the health of his shoulder is a lesser concern for his Week 18 fantasy prospects than the state of the Miami quarterback room. Head coach Mike McDaniel has all but ruled out Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) for a second straight game, while top backup Teddy Bridgewater (knee) has been limited in practice the past two days while battling a dislocated finger on his throwing hand.

Held to 52 yards by New England
Waddle secured three of five targets for 52 yards during Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Waddle was held in check both by a conservative gameplan and Teddy Bridgewater (finger) being replaced by Skylar Thompson in the third quarter with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) already inactive, but it was nonetheless surprising to see him draw less targets than all of Raheem Mostert, Jeff Wilson and Trent Sherfield, not to mention Tyreek Hill.

Waddle caught five of six targets for 143 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-20 loss to Green Bay.
Analysis: Most of his production came in the first half, including an 84-yard TD in the first quarter, but Miami's offense imploded in the second half. Waddle has posted back-to-back 100-yard performances, giving him six on the season, and the second-year wideout has already established new career highs in receiving yards (1,260) and touchdowns (8) heading into a Week 17 clash with the Patriots.

Waddle secured three of seven targets for 114 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 32-29 loss to the Bills on Saturday night.
Analysis: Waddle's game-high receiving yardage total was his best since Week 8, while his trip to the end zone, which came on a 67-yard grab in which he got wide open in the middle of the field and capped off the Dolphins' first second-half drive, was his first touchdown since Week 10.

Analysis: Waddle was a ghost in the first half, failing to record a catch until the fourth quarter. The 24-year-old has now turned in consecutive fantasy duds while attempting to play through a leg injury. Waddle did reach 1,000 receiving yards on the year despite his recent poor play, a feat he has now accomplished in each of his first two seasons as a pro.

Waddle (fibula) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Waddle logged a limited session Wednesday, but consecutive full practices Thursday and Friday were enough for the wideout to gain clearance for the Week 14 game. Perhaps due to the injury, Waddle handled an abnormally low 52 percent snap share in the Dolphins' Week 13 loss to the 49ers. Expect his snap count to pick up Sunday, making him a strong bounce-back candidate this week if he incurs no in-game setbacks with his leg.

Meanwhile, Tyreek Hill missed Thursday's practice due to an illness, so it remains to be seen if the Dolphins will have both of their starting WRs versus Los Angeles. Waddle, who caught just one of five targets for nine yards in Miami's Week 13 loss to the 49ers, has compiled an overall 57-972-6 line on 90 targets through 12 games to date.

Analysis: After the Dolphins jumped out to a 30-0 halftime lead, Miami's offensive starters all eventually made an early exit from the contest. However, Waddle drew even with position mate Tyreek Hill for the team lead in receiving yards, checked in second in receptions to his fellow speedster and paced the Dolphins in targets. Waddle has no fewer than 66 receiving yards in any game since Week 5, a streak he'll try to extend in a Week 13 road showdown against the 49ers.

The second-year wideout's yardage total was actually his lowest since Week 5, but with 878 yards through 10 games, he'll head into a Week 11 bye with no shortage of momentum and value in all fantasy formats.

Assuming Waddle is good to go for the Week 8 contest, he'll be in a prime spot to take aim at his fourth 100-yard receiving game of the campaign.

Leads team with 88 yards
Waddle (shoulder) caught four of five targets for 88 yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Both Waddle and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion/ankle) were able to suit up after carrying questionable tags during practice this week. Tyreek Hill (7-72-0) had a lopsided 13 to five advantage in targets, but it was Waddle who produced more yardage with less opportunities. Both starting wideouts will benefit from having a healthy Tua back under center, especially heading into a favorable matchup against the Lions next Sunday.

Waddle (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday night's game against the Steelers after practicing in a limited fashion this week.
Analysis: Given that he was able to log limited practices this week, Waddle has a chance to suit up this weekend, though his status still will be worth tracking closely ahead of Sunday night's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Analysis: In Week 5, both Waddle and Tyreek Hill (quadriceps/foot) missed practice time and took questionable tags into the Dolphins' game against the Jets. The two receivers were cleared to play in the 40-17 loss, but both Waddle (three catches for 23 yards on four targets) and Hill (seven receptions for 47 yards on seven targets) turned in their worst and second-worst performances, respectively, of the season while working mostly with third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson. Like Waddle, Hill was a…read more

Three catches from third-string QB
Waddle (groin) caught all three of his targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: The final score is deceiving, as Miami actually had a chance to take the lead before the Jets pulled away with three fourth-quarter touchdowns following a missed Dolphins field goal. Due to the game being close throughout, Miami was able to use a run-first approach on offense following Teddy Bridgewater's first-quarter head injury. No Dolphins receiver reached 50 yards as Miami turned to third-stringer Skylar Thompson under center, even though Waddle and Tyreek Hill (foot) combined to catch all…read more

In uniform Sunday
Waddle (groin) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Analysis: The same goes for Tyreek Hill (quadriceps), which sets the stage for Miami's top two wideouts to catch passes in Week 5 from Teddy Bridgewater, with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion/back/ankle) inactive. Barring any in-game setbacks, the duo should see enough volume Sunday to maintain fantasy utility. Through four games to date, Waddle -- who was limited at practice Thursday and Friday -- has recorded 35 targets en route to catching 21 passes for 381 yards and three TDs.

Expected to play versus Jets
Waddle (groin), who is listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday against the Jets, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Waddle logged back-to-back limited sessions after not practicing Wednesday due to a groin injury and was listed as questionable for Week 5. However, the second-year wideout and Tyreek Hill (quadriceps), who's also listed as questionable, are both expected to be available for Teddy Bridgewater's first start in the absence of Tua Tagovailoa (concussion). Regardless, fantasy managers are still encouraged to confirm Waddle's status ahead of Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff before locking him into lineups.

Questionable for Sunday
Waddle (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets after practicing in a limited fashion Friday, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The same goes for Tyreek Hill (quadriceps), though fortunately for those considering either of Miami's top wideout options in Week 5 fantasy lineups, the team kicks off at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. Look for added context regarding the two receivers' statuses to come out in the hours leading up to Sunday's kickoff.

Upgrades to limited participation
Waddle (groin) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Analysis: Though he's not out of the woods just yet, Waddle's return to practice in some capacity after sitting out Wednesday's session is a good sign for his chances of suiting up Sunday against the Jets. If he's able to upgrade to full activity Friday, Waddle will likely enter the weekend without an injury designation and shouldn't face any restrictions with his snap count. He will, however, be catching passes from a new starting quarterback in Week 5, as Teddy Bridgewater is filling in for Tua…read more

Practicing Thursday
Waddle (groin) participated in the media-access portion of Thursday's practice, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Waddle was listed as a non-participant Wednesday, but his presence at Thursday's practice bodes well for his availability for Sunday's game against the Jets. The Dolphins' upcoming injury report will clarify the wideout's official participation level. In Miami's Week 4 loss to the Bengals, Waddle recorded an 86 percent snap share while catching two of his five targets for 39 yards.

Doesn't practice Wednesday
Waddle (groin) didn't practice Wednesday, Mike Masala of USA Today reports.
Analysis: Waddle was among 17 players listed on the Dolphins' first injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Jets. The wideout's status is therefore worth tracking in the coming days, but if he's able to suit up this weekend, Waddle will be catching passes from Teddy Bridgewater, who will draw his first start of 2022 with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion/back/ankle) having already been ruled out for Week 5.

Limited to two grabs Thursday
Waddle secured two of five targets for 39 yards in the Dolphins' 27-15 loss to the Bengals on Thursday night.
Analysis: Waddle uncharacteristically checked in third in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Dolphins on the night, with Teddy Bridgewater focusing more on Tyreek Hill and even Trent Sherfield after he entered the game for an injured Tua Tagovailoa (head/neck) in the second quarter. Waddle had produced a stellar 19-342-3 line on 30 targets through his first three games, so there's reason to believe he'll bounce back with stronger numbers irrespective of who's under center during a Week 5…read more

Active for Thursday's game
Waddle (groin) is listed as active for Thursday night's game against the Bengals.
Analysis: As is starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (back/ankle), which sets the stage for Tyreek Hill and Waddle -- barring any in-game setbacks -- to remain the focus of Miami's passing game Thursday. It's an arrangement that has led to a fantasy-friendly 19-342-3 line on 30 targets for Waddle through three games to date.

Analysis: Waddle and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (back/ankle) are both officially listed as questionable for Thursday Night Football but are expected to play barring any setbacks. The Dolphins' inactives list will confirm both players' status roughly 90 minutes before Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, in any case.

Questionable for Thursday
Waddle (groin) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Bengals after being listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (back/ankle) is also listed as questionable, but both players' Week 4 statuses should be officially confirmed upon the release of Miami's inactive list 90 minutes ahead of Thursday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. In the Dolphins' 21-19 win over the Bills this past Sunday, Waddle logged 32 of a possible 43 snaps on offense en route to catching four of his six targets for 102 yards.

Waddle (groin) was a limited participant at Tuesday's walk-through practice, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: The Dolphins estimated Waddle as a non-participant Monday, so he's seemingly trending in the right direction for Thursday's game against the Bengals. According to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network, head coach Mike McDaniel intimated earlier Tuesday that he expects Waddle to play Thursday, but whether the wideout approaches the contest with or without a designation will likely be determined by what he's able to do in practice Wednesday.

Dealing with groin injury
Waddle (groin) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, per Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site.
Analysis: Waddle led the team with 102 receiving yards during Sunday's narrow win over the Bills, but he apparently picked up a groin injury as well. The extent of the issue is unclear, but it's something worth monitoring, especially with the Dolphins on a short week.

Another stellar showing in win
Waddle brought in four of six targets for 102 yards and added one rush for nine yards in the Dolphins' 21-19 win over the Bills on Sunday.
Analysis: Waddle paced the Dolphins in receiving yards, significantly outpacing the runner-up in that category, fellow speedster and position mate Tyreek Hill (33 yards). The former also had a team-high 45-yard catch while forging his second straight 100-yard effort. Waddle's next opportunity to build on his 19-342-3 line comes in a Week 4 road matchup against the Bengals on Thursday night.

Eclipses century mark in wild win
Waddle brought in 11 of 19 targets for 171 yards and two touchdowns in the Dolphins' 42-38 win over the Ravens on Sunday.
Analysis: The eye-popping target volume says it all in terms of Waddle's chemistry with Tua Tagovailoa, and it underscores how intensive a comeback the Dolphins were forced to mount after entering the fourth quarter down 35-21. Waddle was an integral part of the unlikely victory, recording a six-yard touchdown grab in the second quarter and then capping off the rally via a seven-yard score with only 14 seconds remaining.

Races for 42-yard TD in win
Waddle caught four of five targets for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-7 win over the Patriots. He added eight yards on one rushing attempt.
Analysis: Waddle found a seam between three Patriots defenders and turned on the jets to score a 42-yard touchdown in the final seconds of the first half. Besides that splashy play, Waddle played second fiddle to Tyreek Hill, who led the team in targets (12) and scrimmage yards (100). The two explosive wide receivers showed they can coexist in this one, and Miami should continue to feature both in Week 2 against the Ravens.

Returns to full practice
Waddle (quad) practiced fully Thursday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: After logging a limited session Wednesday, Waddle was able to handle every practice rep Thursday, which sets the stage for the 2021 first-rounder to be available for Sunday's season opener against the Patriots. Heading into the upcoming campaign, Waddle and Tyreek Hill are in line to form a dynamic one-two punch at wideout for the Dolphins, and in that context both players should see steady target volume from QB Tua Tagovailoa in 2022.

Waddle (lower body) is practicing Wednesday without a protective sleeve on his leg, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Head coach Mike McDaniel suggested that Waddle was limited in Wednesday's session, but it's encouraging to see the second-year wideout operating without a leg sleeve. Waddle will have two more chances to upgrade his activity level prior to Sunday's season opener against the Patriots.

No concerns about Week 1
Coach Mike McDaniel said Thursday he's "very, very, very confident" Waddle (lower body) will be available Week 1 versus the Patriots, Alain Poupart of SI.com reports.
Analysis: Waddle returned to practice as a limited participant Tuesday, and he continues to work his way back from an unspecified lower body injury. There don't appear to be any real concerns about the second-year wideout's status for the regular-season opener, and he still has over a week to get fully healthy before Sept. 11. When healthy, Waddle is set to pair up with Tyreek Hill, forming the speediest one-two combo at receiver in the league as he looks to build upon a 104/1015/6 rookie stat line.

Practices in limited fashion
Waddle (lower body) is practicing in a limited capacity Tuesday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Waddle is dealing with an undisclosed lower body injury, the severity of which prevented him from seeing action during any of Miami's three preseason contests. The second-year wideout was previously termed day-to-day, however, so it looks like he can be expected to return to full health ahead of the Dolphins' season opener against New England on Sept. 11. When healthy, Waddle is locked in alongside Tyreek Hill as one of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's top targets.

Waddle is likely to slide down the wide receiver depth chart following Miami's acquisition of Tyreek Hill in a trade with the Chiefs, Travis Wingfield of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Waddle set an NFL rookie record with 104 catches last season, while also surpassing 1,000 receiving yards and scoring six touchdowns, but he no longer seems like the favorite for the No. 1 wideout spot entering the 2022 season.

Waddle caught five of seven targets for 27 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-24 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: While he didn't gain much in the way of yardage, Waddle still led the Dolphins in catches and targets, and his seven-yard TD grab in the first quarter opened the scoring. He also set a new NFL rookie record with 104 receptions, breaking the mark of 101 set by Anquan Boldin in 2003, and Waddle avoided an asterisk by doing it in 16 games.

Limited to three catches
Waddle brought in three of seven targets for 47 yards in the Dolphins' 34-3 loss to the Titans on Sunday. He also returned one punt for 15 yards.
Analysis: Waddle's recent run of high-volume efforts came to a halt Sunday against a feisty Titans secondary, leading to his lowest yardage total since Week 8. The rookie also saw a three-game streak of double-digit targets go by the wayside, as DeVante Parker led the way with 13 looks overall. Despite the downturn Sunday, Waddle will have a chance to hit the 100-catch mark with just one reception in Week 18 against the Patriots.

Waddle caught 10 of 12 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 20-3 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Waddle was the engine to Miami's offense, moving the sticks by getting free on a variety of underneath routes. His after-the-catch ability once again offered a consistent outlet for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, including on his one-yard touchdown from a misdirection push pass in the second half.

He'll thus target a potential return to action Week 16, when Miami faces the Saints on Dec. 27.

Analysis: The rookie posted his first career 100-yard effort in the Dolphins' fourth consecutive win, and both his reception and yardage totals paced all pass catchers on the afternoon. Waddle also recorded his fourth receiving touchdown of the season in the second quarter on a nine-yard scoring grab, and with at least eight catches in three of the past four games, he heads into a Week 13 home matchup against the Giants with no shortage of momentum.

Analysis: Waddle capped the opening drive with a one-yard rushing touchdown, easily out-sprinting the Jets defense to the edge. The rookie wide receiver has scored from in close on both of his rushing attempts this season, complementing a trio of receiving scores.

Analysis: Waddle co-led the team in receptions alongside Albert Wilson and Isaiah Ford, with a 35-yard grab accounting for a good chunk of his production. After 33- and 31-yard tallies in Weeks 4 and 5, Waddle has bounced back to eclipse 60 yards in four of the last five contests.

Analysis: The rookie bounced back from an underwhelming 4-29 line against the Bills in Week 8 with Sunday's effort, which featured team-leading figures in receptions, receiving yards and targets. With DeVante Parker (shoulder) having joined Will Fuller (finger) on injured reserve Saturday, Waddle easily profiles as Miami's most explosive wideout and should enjoy another significant role in a Week 10 Thursday night matchup against the Ravens.

Held to four grabs Sunday
Waddle brought in four of 12 targets for 29 yards in the Dolphins' 26-11 loss to the Bills on Sunday. He also returned two punts for 25 yards.
Analysis: The rookie was highly inefficient on a day when he logged the second-highest number of targets of his young career. Waddle had encouragingly recorded 17 receptions over the last two games on 21 targets, so the constant failure to connect with Tua Tagovailoa on Sunday was particularly alarming yet also largely explained by the elite Bills secondary. Waddle will aim for a significant turnaround in his numbers Week 9 against the visiting Texans.

The Alabama product now has a whopping 17 receptions on 21 targets over the last two games alone, making him a PPR darling despite typically recording many of his receptions relatively close to the line of scrimmage.

The duo connected for touchdowns of six and two yards -- Waddle's first trips to the end zone since Week 1. Despite the strong production, Waddle didn't work down the field regularly, as his longest reception of the contest went for just 14 yards.

Waddle is set to work as the Dolphins' top wide receiver Sunday against the Jaguars with DeVante Parker (shoulder) ruled out, and he's expected to be catching passes from Tua Tagovailoa, who is slated to return from a rib injury, Joe Schad of the Palm Beach Post reports.
Analysis: Waddle just put forth a disappointing two-catch performance against Tampa Bay with Parker sidelined, but that was with backup Jacoby Brissett under center. The only game Waddle played with Tagovailoa, his former Alabama teammate, under center for more than a quarter was Week 1, and that's also the only game in which the rookie first-round pick has found the end zone. Waddle will have a good opportunity to make it 2-for-2 in touchdowns with Tua against a vulnerable Jacksonville secondary in…read more

Struggles in blowout loss
Waddle caught two of six targets for 31 yards and added a two-yard run in Sunday's 45-17 loss to Tampa Bay.
Analysis: Waddle ranked third on the team in targets behind running back Myles Gaskin (10) and tight end Mike Gesicki (seven), with fellow wide receiver DeVante Parker (shoulder) inactive. The rookie first-round pick failed to do much with that volume and had a ball bounce off his hands in the fourth quarter, leading to an interception. Miami makes a concerted effort to get the ball in Waddle's hands often -- he has 36 targets through five games -- and there should be more room to operate against the…read more

Could see more work
Waddle could be in line for increased offensive usage with Will Fuller (finger) bound for injured reserve, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Waddle has handled a starting role in Miami's offense since Week 1, but he only played alongside Fuller for the past two weeks. With Fuller headed to IR, the Dolphins will now have to wait at least three more games before getting a good sample of what their scheme looks like with all of Waddle, Fuller and DeVante Parker healthy simultaneously. In the meantime, Waddle and Parker will continue to operate as the clear top wideouts. Top quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) could come off IR as early…read more

Target volume comes down to earth
Waddle secured three of four targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 27-17 loss to Indianapolis.
Analysis: Waddle is just one week removed from having seen 13 targets from Jacoby Brissett, but he took a back seat to DeVante Parker (4-77-1 on nine targets) against Indianapolis. If Will Fuller (hand) isn't able to suit up at Tampa Bay in Week 5, Waddle could end up handling more opportunities, but it still isn't easy to trust the rookie as an every-week fantasy option -- especially with Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) still out at least one more game.

Can't do much with big volume
Waddle caught 12 of 13 passes for 58 yards in Sunday's 31-28 overtime loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: He was Jacoby Brissett's favorite option on the afternoon, but Waddle wasn't able to do much with his team-leading volume. The rookie's longest catch went for only nine yards, and he got tackled for a safety on a botched wide receiver screen late in the first quarter. With Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) out for at least two more games, Waddle may need to rely on his ability to gain yards after the catch to post stronger numbers Week 4 at home against the Colts.

Six catches in shutout loss
Waddle caught six of eight targets for 48 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 35-0 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Waddle led the Dolphins in targets and receiving yards, but his most memorable play was a special teams miscue -- he muffed a punt return near midfield in the final minute of the first half. Backup quarterback Jacoby Brissett looked Waddle's way often after replacing the injured Tua Tagovailoa (ribs) in the first quarter, but Miami's pecking order in the passing game could change in Week 3 against the Raiders if Will Fuller (personal) makes his season debut alongside Waddle and DeVante Parker,…read more

Projected to start again
Waddle and DeVante Parker are in line to continue to serve as Miami's top wide receivers Sunday against the Bills, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.
Analysis: Will Fuller, who was expected to return to the team's lineup this weekend, won't be available for Sunday's contest due to a personal matter. In Week 1, Waddle hauled in four of his five targets for 61 yards and a TD, while Parker recorded a 4-81-0 stat line on a team-high seven targets. The duo (who started at WR in the team's season opener) should continue to be key cogs in Miami's passing game Week 2, with Albert Wilson, Preston Williams (foot/knee), Mack Hollins and Jakeem Grant also…read more

Impressive debut
Waddle recorded four receptions on six targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' Week 1 victory over New England.
Analysis: Waddle was out-targeted by only DeVante Parker, and he finished second on the team with 61 receiving yards. He showed explosiveness in a variety of ways and picked up 17 yards on the team's first play from scrimmage. Waddle played a key role at other points in the game, hauling in a deep reception of 36 yards that set up a field goal just before halftime. On the team's opening possession of the second half, Waddle found the end zone on a three-yard catch. While Will Fuller (suspension) will…read more

Regular-season debut on tap
In his NFL regular-season debut Sunday against the Patriots, Waddle could see an expanded role in Miami's offense with Will Fuller (suspension) unavailable, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Per Furones, the No. 6 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft is projected to play a key role in the Dolphins' run-pass option offense in any case, and with Fuller out this weekend Waddle should have an immediate opportunity to rekindle his on-field chemistry with his former college quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa. At 5-foot-10, 182 pounds, Waddle profiles as an explosive playmaker, and while it remains to be seen how steady his volume will be early on in his pro career, the Alabama product has a…read more

Survives injury scare
Waddle caught three of four targets for 21 yards while missing some snaps due to injury during Saturday's preseason win against the Falcons.
Analysis: With six wide receivers sitting for the Dolphins -- notably, DeVante Parker (undisclosed) and Will Fuller (foot) -- Waddle got the start and was targeted on three of Tua Tagovailoa's first four passes. On the 10th play of Miami's opening drive, though, Waddle was undercut by an Atlanta defender while blocking. The scary moment included the rookie first-round pick remaining on the field for awhile, going to the blue medical tent and eventually walking to the locker room under his own power, all…read more

Returns punt for 24 yards
Waddle wasn't targeted in Saturday's preseason game against the Bears, but he did have a 24-yard punt return in the first quarter.
Analysis: Waddle worked with the first-team offense and got plenty of snaps alongside Tua Tagovailoa, who threw six of his 11 passes to tight ends. The rookie first-round pick at least got a chance to show off his talent on special teams, though he'll have tough competition for return work on a team with WR/RS Jakeem Grant. In any case, Waddle should see at least one or two targets in the second week of the preseason, even if one or two of the Dolphins' veteran wideouts (Will Fuller, DeVante Parker,…read more

Listed as backup for now
Waddle is listed as a backup on the Dolphins' first depth chart of the season, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.
Analysis: Waddle is listed behind entrenched starters DeVante Parker and Will Fuller (suspension/foot) in addition to Albert Wilson, who opted out of the 2020 season. Wilson is an experienced slot playmaker who could certainly contribute on offense if he's retained his explosiveness heading into his age-29 season, but Waddle's status as a first-round pick should let him find his way into the starting lineup sooner rather than later. As Mark Inabinett of AL.com reports, Waddle recently said his surgically…read more

Still dealing with ankle problems?
Waddle's surgically repaired right ankle is "still somewhat of an issue" nine months after the initial injury, according to PFN's Adam Beasley.
Analysis: The sixth overall pick dislocated his ankle last October and had surgery the same night, later making it back for a brief appearance in the College Football Playoff National Championship, where he caught three passes for 34 yards just two and a half months after suffering the injury. Despite the unusually quick return to action and subsequent early draft slot, Waddle reportedly still walks with a slight limp at times and has been tightly wrapping his right ankle before every practice. Then…read more

Signs rookie contract
Waddle signed his rookie contract, which is worth $27.1 million and includes a $17.1 million signing bonus, with the Dolphins on Friday, Josh Tolentino of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The 2021 sixth overall pick is now set to reunite with his college quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, on the Dolphins. Will Fuller figures to have the same type of field-stretching role Waddle will have this season but is only on a one-year deal; therefore, whatever Fuller's short-term impact may be, don't expect it to hinder Waddle too much from emerging as the team's top future playmaker for years to come.
