Miami Dolphins

Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has been officially activated off the team's injured reserve ahead of Sunday's outing against the Arizona Cardinals. The Dolphins released quarterback Tim Boyle in a corresponding move. It's merely a formality, as Jonathan Jones of CBS reported on Friday that Tagovailoa would be getting the start in Week 8. It is fantastic news for the Dolphins and fantasy managers, as the team has scored just three offensive touchdowns in his absence. The Alabama product should be an immediate boost to the outlook of all Dolphins' skill players. Arizona is one of the league's better matchups for opposing passing attacks, letting up the second-most yards per pass play (7.4). The 26-year-old will be a high-end QB2 for the contest and is RotoBaller's QB14 in this week's rankings.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tyler Huntley (shoulder) was placed on the Injured Reserve list on Friday. With Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) missing the last few games, Huntley has been under center. However, he didn't do much with his afforded opportunity, throwing for 377 yards, one touchdown, and one interception off 59.1% passing. Fortunately for the Dolphins, Tagovailoa will be back on the field for the Week 8 meeting with the Cardinals, which will hopefully provide a much-needed spark to a stagnant offense.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane gets a huge boost this week with starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) back in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Miami offense has been disappointing overall in 2024, scoring only 70 points in six games. Despite this, the 23-year-old has seen consistent volume as a runner and in the passing game. He now gets a solid matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, who rank 20th in fantasy points per game to opposing running backs and allowed the seventh most rushing yards per game (114.4). This is a prime spot for Achane to return to the RB1 conversation. He is a must-start in all formats and is RB15 in the latest RotoBaller running back rankings for Week 8.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday according to Cameron Wolfe of the NFL Network. However, head coach Mike McDaniel expressed optimism that his star wideout would be able to suit up. Hill popped up on the injury report on Thursday as a limited participant, but was then downgraded to a non-participant on Friday. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status throughout the weekend. If Hill is able to suit up, he should be locked into all lineups as a high-end WR1 with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returning. If the 30-year-old is unable to play, No.2 wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (quad) should be viewed as a low-end WR1.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (quad) fully practiced on Friday and was removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. He was limited earlier in the week with a quad injury but is good to go for Week 8. Over the last four games, the 25-year-old caught 13 of 21 targets for 119 yards and zero touchdowns. That should all change this week, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) coming off injured reserve after he suffered a gruesome concussion back in Week 2. Miami now gets a matchup at home against the Cardinals, who allow the sixth most fantasy points per game to wide receivers in PPR formats. The O/U for this game projects to be a high-scoring affair and currently sits at 46.5. With Tua back, lock him into your lineup as a WR2, as he is currently ranked 21st among all wideouts in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 8.
