Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Broncos. He had been listed as questionable after returning to a limited practice on Friday, so Waddle is trending toward a Week 4 return. It'll be WRs Braxton Berrios, River Cracraft, Erik Ezukanma, Cedrick Wilson, and Robbie Chosen behind target-hog Tyreek Hill against Denver tomorrow.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (concussion) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Broncos. He missed the first two practices of the week but returned to a limited workout on Friday. That means he's made some progress through the protocol -- but still has multiple stages to pass through. We're still not expecting Waddle to play on Sunday but will keep you updated on his status.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (concussion) remained sidelined on Thursday. He now looks like a long shot to play vs. the Broncos this weekend. We'll see if Waddle is able to get back on the field tomorrow, but fantasy owners should not plan on having him in Week 3 lineups.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (concussion) won't practice on Wednesday, HC Mike McDaniel said. Waddle still has multiple stages of the protocol to work through and isn't looking like a good bet to play vs. the Broncos this weekend. We'll update his status again tomorrow.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle is in the concussion protocol, according to multiple reports. He left Sunday night's game late for the check. Waddle looks unlikely to be ready for Week 3, but we'll keep an eye on his status.

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 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 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.

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.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (midsection) told reporters that he expects to play in the season opener vs. the Chargers. He missed most of August but was spotted on the practice field on Thursday. We'll get Miami's first official practice report of the season on Wednesday.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (midsection) was in uniform for Tuesday's practice but remained on the rehab field, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe. HC Mike McDaniel said that the team is being cautious with Waddle, with the goal to have him ready for Week 1. Waddle has been out since August 9. But, at this point, there's no reason to believe he won't be ready for the season opener.

Per beat writer Hal Habib, Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle has been out of practice since Wednesday with an injury to his midsection. “Fortunate that it's not something that I know will be a long-term deal,” HC Mike McDaniel said this weekend. "But he’s… steadily rehabbing. And working with the trainers, which fires me up." Waddle should be fine for Week 1 vs. the Chargers, but we’ll keep an eye on his return. The third-year pro looks poised for another impactful season in 2023. “I think Waddle has probably had one of the best camps on our team this year,” QB Tua Tagovailoa said. “And it really started with OTAs. From the first day he came he showed up and he was locked in. So it's kind of unfortunate to see something like that happen. I hope that it's just, you know, a couple days or whatever and I hope he gets better.” Waddle sits top-15 in our WR rankings.

Per reporter Cameron Wolfe, Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle “intentionally put on weight” over the offseason. The third-year WR was already stout at a listed 5’10, 182 pounds. Waddle owns 179 career catches — a number only five WRs have topped across their first two NFL seasons. Waddle profiles as a fringe WR1 for 2023.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle posted an empty 3-catch, 44-yard line against Buffalo. Waddle mishandled a couple of potentially game-changing deep balls. He was also tackled inside the 1 on a rush attempt. Prior to that, the young WR picked up a shoulder injury that he quickly returned from. His 2nd season ends with 80-1400-8 in 18 games. Going forward, his value is closely tied to the health of Tua Tagovailoa.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) practiced fully on Friday and doesn't carry an injury tag for Sunday's Wild Card game vs. the Bills. Teammate WR Cedrick Wilson (hip, groin) is listed as questionable. With rookie QB Skylar Thompson set to be the starter this weekend, the fantasy appeal of all Dolphins' pass-catchers takes a tangible hit. Waddle has a combined 8 catches and 96 receiving yards in the last 2 games with Thompson primarily serving as the QB. Be cautious with Waddle and any other receiver on the Dolphins for fantasy playoff contests. The upside simply isn't there for any of them.

Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle (ankle) once again practiced in a limited fashion on Thursday. Teammate Cedrick Wilson (hip, groin) logged limited participation as well. It's good to see this duo is managing some work in practice so far. We'll have their final injury designations for Sunday's Wild Card game vs. the Bills tomorrow.
