Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle exited late in Sunday night's game vs. the Patriots to get checked for a concussion. HC Mike McDaniel didn't have an update afterward. But Waddle was interacting with teammates in the post-game locker room, per ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques. We'll look for more information on Waddle's status and track his practice participation this week.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill was held to 5 catches on 9 targets for 40 receiving yards in Sunday night’s win over the Patriots. Teammate Jaylen Waddle led the team in receiving with 86 yards on 4 catches in the divisional bout. It’s a familiar anecdote that Patriots HC Bill Belichick is good at tailoring a game plan around attempting to shut down an opponent’s most effective playmaker, so fantasy managers should have no reason to go away from Hill looking forward. Both he and Waddle are prime plays in Week 3 vs. the Broncos. This Miami offense has started the year firing on all cylinders.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert racked up 121 rushing yards, including a 43-yard TD, on 18 carries in Week 2 vs. the Patriots. The ageless wonder also added 6 receiving yards on his lone target in the victory. Teammate Salvon Ahmed contributed 6 touches of his own before a groin injury took him out of the contest, though this backfield was more or less the Mostert Show for the second game in a row. It’s worth mentioning that rookie De’Von Achane made his debut on Sunday night, though he only received a couple of touches. Mostert will look to continue his success in Week 3 vs. the Broncos.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa completed 21 of 30 passes for 249 yards with 1 TD and INT apiece in Sunday night’s win vs. the Patriots. His Week 2 stats aren’t as eye-popping as last week’s 466-yard aerial assault, though Miami had significant contributions from RB Raheem Mostert on the ground in this divisional contest. Fantasy managers can confidently start Tagovailoa again next week vs. the Broncos.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane is active for tonight's game vs. the Patriots. It's the rookie's regular-season debut after being scratched for the opener. Achane can't be trusted in season-long lineups but is an interesting flier in one-game DFS tournament contests.

Ravens WR Odell Beckham has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game vs. the Bengals with an ankle injury. We'll update his status when we know more. Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, and Nelson Agholor will operate as Baltimore's top three WRs the rest of the way.

The Dolphins added Edge Jaelan Phillips to the injury report Friday and list him questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots with a back injury he suffered in Friday's practice. We'll see about his status Sunday, but the late kickoff might mean you need to go with another option in your IDP lineup.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) is not listed on the final Week 2 injury report. He sat out on Wednesday but put in full practices on Thursday and Friday. He’s ready for lead-back duties in Sunday night’s game vs. New England.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) returned to a full practice on Thursday. He'll be ready for lead-back duties in this weekend's game vs. the Patriots.

Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. "Just vet rest and maintenance. He’s good to go," NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe tweeted. It sounds like Mostert will be ready for a full workload vs. the Patriots this weekend, but we'll keep an eye on his status over the next few days.

Dolphins TE Durham Smythe led the team with 33 routes run in Week 1. The former Round 4 pick came close to hauling in one TD, but he ultimately wound up with 3 grabs for 44 yards on a 15.5% target share. Not bad for a guy believed to be an afterthought in Miami’s top-heavy offense. We’re not rushing out to grab Smythe in fantasy circles — but he is a name to monitor in deep (or TE premium) formats.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill started hot, snagging 11 balls for 215 yards and 2 TDs in a win over Los Angeles. His yardage marked the third-most in a season-opener in league history, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Hill scored from deep and in close, showcasing his extraordinary burst throughout the game. On the day, Hill saw a 33.3% target share and accounted for 46.1% of Tua Tagovailoa’s 466(!) passing yards. If Tua continues to cook, Hill will retain an overall WR1 upside for the road ahead. The upcoming schedule just isn’t a cakewalk: at New England, vs. Denver, and at Buffalo.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane is a healthy scratch for today's game vs. the Chargers. The rookie has some work to do to earn a role in this offense. Raheem Mostert and Salvon Ahmed will handle backfield duties for Miami today.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reports that Dolphins RB De'Von Achane is not expected to play vs. the Chargers today. The rookie wasn't listed on the final injury report but has "some rust" after missing time in August with a shoulder injury, per Pelissero. Achane remains worth stashing on fantasy benches but is unlikely to be a viable fantasy starter for at least another few weeks. Raheem Mostert figures to handle the majority of RB touches for Miami today. Salvon Ahmed will be the No. 2 RB.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (oblique) isn’t listed on the final Week 1 injury report. He was sidelined for a good chunk of August, but Waddle practiced all week, including full workouts on Thursday and Friday. He should play his usual role vs. the Chargers this weekend.

Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) put in a full week of practice and isn’t listed on the final injury report. He’ll make his regular-season debut vs. the Chargers on Sunday. Miami could certainly use Achane with RB Jeff Wilson on IR, but the rookie would be a desperation fantasy play after getting 0 first-team snaps this preseason.

Ravens WR Odell Beckham (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 1 injury report. He was limited in Thursday's practice but a full participant on Friday. It doesn't look like the ankle will be an issue in Sunday's opener vs. the Texans.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (oblique) was upgraded to full participation in Thursday's practice. He's good to go for this weekend's potential shootout vs. the Chargers.

Ravens WR Odell Beckham was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Thursday with an ankle issue. Check back tomorrow to see if Beckham practices and how he's listed on the final injury report for Sunday's opener vs. the Texans.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (oblique) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He's been dealing with this injury since mid-August. We're still expecting Waddle to play vs. the Chargers on Sunday, but his status is worth monitoring over the next few days.
