Miami Dolphins DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle caught all four of his targets for 53 yards in Thursday's 30-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers. After his best performance of the season, Waddle failed to top 60 receiving yards for the eighth and has seen five targets or less for the seventh time in 2024. With Jonnu Smith (11 targets) emerging as a top target for Tua Tagovailoa in Thursday's loss, Waddle has found targets hard to come by. The offense got off to a slow start in the first half, being down 24-3, and the 26-year-old could not find a rhythm for the rest of the game. He has not been the wide receiver fantasy managers have hoped for this season, as he now ranks as the WR35 overall. Waddle will look to get back on track next week at home against the New York Jets.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa completed 37 of 46 passes for 365 yards and two passing touchdowns in their 30-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He also added six rushing yards on two attempts. Miami's offense started very slow in the first half but got things going after halftime. With it being 24-3 going into the locker room, they were forced to throw to attempt to get back into the game. Since returning in Week 8, Tagovailoa has played some of the best football of his career. In that span, he has tossed 13 touchdowns with only one interception. The 26-year-old has finished as a top-10 fantasy quarterback the past two games and may finish there in Week 13 when it's all said and done. Miami will look to get back on track next week when they return home to play the New York Jets.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (personal, wrist) caught six of nine targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in their 30-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers. This is the first time since Week 1 that Hill scored at least 20 PPR points in a game. The game script had the Dolphins down 24-3 at halftime, forcing them to throw the rest of the way. He could only haul in one pass for two yards through the first two quarters. He has now scored a touchdown in three of his last four games. The 30-year-old could've had an even better game if Tua Tagovailoa didn't miss him on a few throws. Hill will look to continue the solid play next week in a matchup against the division-rival New York Jets.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane carried the ball seven times for 14 yards in their 30-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He also caught eight of his nine targets for 56 yards and a touchdown. Achane once again scored 20-plus PPR fantasy points for the third straight game and the fifth time in the last six games. All the other Dolphins running backs are taking a back seat to Achane instead of being a backfield by committee as it was in 2023. While the rushing numbers weren't impressive, Achane's value in the passing game and red zone usage keep him in the RB1 realm. Week 14 presents a tough matchup against the New York Jets at home.

The Miami Dolphins have activated quarterback Tyler Huntley (shoulder) from injured reserve. Huntley made three starts for Miami earlier this season and, coincidentally, was placed on IR at the same time Tua Tagovailoa was activated following his concussion. Huntley and Skylar Thompson will both remain in depth roles as long as Tagovailoa is healthy.
