Jaylen Waddle's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

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.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (quadriceps) was listed as a limited practice participant on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Waddle could pick up a questionable tag on Friday's final injury report, but he seems to be on the right side of questionable for Week 8 against the Arizona Cardinals. Tyreek Hill (foot) was added to the injury report on Thursday and was limited in practice, so Miami's top two wideouts have injury concerns heading into the game against the Cardinals. The good news is that the 25-year-old Waddle should be good to play and will have a much higher fantasy ceiling and floor as a WR2 with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) tracking towards making his return from Injured Reserve. In addition, Arizona's defense has surrendered the sixth-most half-PPR fantasy points to receivers in seven games.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (quad) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Waddle is no stranger to the injury report but it would be best to keep an eye on the situation as we head into the weekend. With the Dolphins hoping to start quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) in Week 8 against the Arizona Cardinals, Waddle would see a huge boost in potential fantasy production. Waddle has all but disappeared without Tagovailoa in the lineup. He has not exceeded 8.6 fantasy points in a game since Week 1 when Tagovailoa last played a full game. In the five games since, Waddle has only caught 17 passes for 160 yards. He also has not caught a touchdown this season. He has been completely unplayable but things are looking up. Luckily Waddle was able to participate in practice in some capacity so for now there is no immediate worry about his status for Sunday's game. However, fantasy managers should still monitor the situation on Thursday and Friday.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle caught 1-of-2 targets in Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The numbers are all season-low marks for the fourth-year wideout, and the first time in his young career he registered fewer than four targets. No Dolphins pass-catcher recorded more than three targets or two receptions in the contest aside from tight end Jonnu Smith, who led the team with seven catches and 96 yards on seven targets. It's a significant disappointment for Waddle's managers in an excellent matchup. It's anticipated that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa will practice ahead of the team's Week 8 outing and might make his return when the Dolphins host the Arizona Cardinals next Sunday. If not, it could be another week of Tim Boyle calling signals with Tyler Huntley (shoulder) forced from Sunday's loss in the second half.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle gets a strong matchup when his team takes on the Indianapolis Colts on the road in Week 7. While he's yet to eclipse 46 yards since his 109-yard outing in Week 1, Waddle has been consistent -; albeit unspectacular -; recording four receptions in four straight matchups. It's difficult to trust him as more than a FLEX option this week due to the lack of ceiling in the Dolphins' offense sans quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion). However, the Colts present as one of the weaker matchups against opponents across the board, and the 25-year-old saw his highest target total of the season his last time out in Week 5 (8). The former Alabama Crimson Tide is RotoBaller's PPR WR46 this week ahead of a 44-point over/under outing.
