Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has trailed off a little bit in the last two games, with only three catches each against the Commanders and the Saints. The Dolphins' passing game has been very low-volume in the last few games as they rely heavily on De'Von Achane and the defense to win three straight. This week, Waddle has a good matchup against the Jets, who traded away Sauce Gardner and have allowed four receiver touchdowns in the last six weeks. Even in his down games, Waddle continues to lead the way in targets, so he still has potential upside if the game script calls for passing. He is the WR12 in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, making him a solid WR2 with WR1 upside if the Dolphins have to air it out a little more.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle will be coming off his bye week this Sunday for a home game against the Saints. Waddle has been a huge part of the Dolphins' recent surge and emerged as a reliable starter every week. The 27-year-old had over 80 yards five times in his last seven games and has hauled in three touchdowns during that span as well. Waddle has at least six targets in nine of his last 10 games and is averaging 65.6 receiving yards per game. With 6.6 targets per game, he's getting plenty of looks from Tua Tagovailoa, and he's the WR9 in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings in what should be a favorable spot against the Saints.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (foot) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. This seems a bit odd as Waddle wasn't dealing with a foot injury before the bye week. It's unclear when he suffered the injury, but the fact he was limited suggests it's a minor issue. Waddle should be ready to go against the New Orleans Saints in Week 13. Fantasy managers should check back on Thursday and Friday just in case something changes.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has been emerging as a regular starter and high-end WR2 since the season-ending injury to Tyreek Hill (knee). He has clearly established himself as the top target in the Dolphins' passing game, and before Sunday, he had posted at least five catches in five of his previous six games. However, in Sunday morning's matchup in Madrid, he was held in check by the Commanders, catching just three passes for 52 yards. He still led he team in targets with seven and receiving yards with 52, but it was a quiet day for the offense aside from De'Von Achane, who had a big day and helped the team claim a 16-13 victory. The Dolphins have their bye week after their Spain trip and return to action in Week 13 against the Saints in what should be a good matchup for Waddle to bounce back.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is in a great matchup in Spain this week as his team takes on the Commanders as part of the NFL International Series. Waddle caught five of his seven targets last week against the Bills and finished with 84 receiving yards and his fifth touchdown of the season. He has operated as the clear No. 1 receiver in Miami since Tyreek Hill's knee injury, and he has at least five catches and 80 yards in five of his last six games, including three touchdowns and a 100-yard performance. The Commanders have allowed the third-most fantasy points to receivers this season, and since he'll get so much attention from Tua Tagovailoa this week, Waddle checks in as the No. 13 WR in RotoBaller's rankings, making him a fringe WR1 and an excellent WR2 this week. He should be started in almost all formats.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle led the team in receiving again in their Week 10 upset win over the Buffalo Bills, catching five of his seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown. Waddle had an outstanding 38-yard touchdown catch where he also drew a pass interference penalty in the game, and continues to assert himself as one of the best wide receivers in the league. Outside of a monsoon game in Cleveland in Week 7, where Waddle caught only one of four targets for 15 yards, the 26-year-old has posted at least 80 receiving yards in every game since Tyreek Hill (knee) went down in Week 4. Waddle has recorded 29 receptions for 485 yards and three touchdowns on 43 targets in that span, averaging 16 PPR points per game. Waddle projects for another strong fantasy day in Week 11 when the Dolphins travel to Madrid to face a putrid Washington Commanders defense.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle was reportedly on the trade block ahead of the trade deadline. The Dolphins view Waddle as part of their future, but they at least wanted to listen to offers. It doesn't sound like the Dolphins planned to move Waddle unless they were blown away with an offer. The highest bidder for Waddle was the Buffalo Bills who offered a first-round pick for him. The Dolphins declined that offer as they clearly don't want to deal their star to their division rival. It remains to be seen if the Dolphins will keep Waddle through the offseason, but it appears the price is higher than a first-round pick.

From RotoBaller

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle was not traded at the deadline, so he'll remain the top target for Tua Tagovailoa in Miami as they host the Bills in Week 10. Waddle has been heavily targeted since the season-ending injury to Tyreek Hill (knee), and he has been the best Dolphins' receiver for fantasy. He has at least five catches in four of his last five games, with the one exception being the bad-weather game in Cleveland. He has at least 80 yards in four of his last five games, along with two of his four touchdowns on the year. He had five catches for 39 yards and a touchdown against the Bills in their first meeting this season, and he'll look to most an even better game at home in the rematch this week. He's the WR18 in RotoBaller's rankings, and he brings both a high floor and a high ceiling since he gets so many targets from Tua and has been a PPR beast.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has enjoyed a fantastic bounce-back season in 2025, leading the team with 41 catches for 586 yards and four touchdowns in nine games. Waddle had been in plenty of trade rumors with the current state of the Dolphins, but the team is committed to their 26-year-old star wideout and views him as a piece of their future. Waddle has emerged as the no-doubt WR1 after Tyreek Hill (knee) went down in Week 3, and has been among the most productive wideouts in the league. Waddle ranks as WR13 in PPR points since Week 4, and he should continue to return borderline WR1 fantasy production as one of the most explosive players in the league and the focal point of head coach Mike McDaniel's passing attack.

The Denver Broncos were among the teams that explored a trade for Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. But in the end, the Dolphins' asking price was too "steep" for Denver. Miami also received calls on pass-rusher Bradley Chubb, but they decided to hang onto both players at Tuesday's trade deadline. Linebacker Jaelan Phillips was shipped to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday in exchange for a third-round draft pick next year. Denver ultimately stood pat at the deadline and will move forward in 2025 with receivers Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion), and rookie Pat Bryant as their top wideouts. The 26-year-old Waddle will probably keep a higher fantasy ceiling the rest of the way this year in Miami as quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's top pass-game target with Tyreek Hill (knee) done for the year. Waddle has had at least 80 receiving yards in four of the last five games and two touchdowns during that span.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, a trade involving Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is "highly unlikely." There have been reports that the Dolphins would consider moving him. However, Schefter added, citing a "well-placed source," dealing the wideout isn't anticipated for a "variety" of reasons, including Miami seeking "a 1-plus" in exchange. With the Fins potentially looking at a rebuild, it's possible the 26-year-old could be on the move after this season. For now, it seems he'll at least finish out the year in South Beach. Waddle, selected No. 6 overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, began his career by surpassing the 1,000-yard receiving mark in three-straight seasons. While Waddle took a step backward in 2024, he's been a top fantasy option throughout the 2025 campaign, amassing 41 catches (59 targets) for 586 yards and four touchdowns.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle could be on the move ahead of the trade deadline. Originally, the Dolphins had no plans of moving on from Waddle, but things have changed in Miami. Former general manager Chris Grier didn't want to trade Waddle, but he's no longer making the decisions for the Dolphins. The organization knows the situation they're in and that young talent such as Waddle can bring a haul back to Miami. Basically, the Dolphins would need to be blown away to give up Waddle, but it's something they'll consider. It depends on the organization, but a move elsewhere could be good for Waddle's fantasy value. This is a situation to monitor during the upcoming trade deadline.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle caught six of his nine targets for 82 yards during Thursday's Week 9 loss against the Baltimore Ravens. Waddle has quietly been quite productive despite Miami's overall offensive struggles this year. In the five games since Tyreek Hill was placed on injured reserve, he is averaging 4.8 catches, 80.2 receiving yards, and 0.4 touchdowns. He ranks as the overall WR7 in PPR leagues so far, albeit with at least one more game played than most of his fellow receivers. On a points per game basis, he ranks 23rd. Managers should continue to trust Waddle as a solid WR2 option heading into a potentially negative game script scenario against the Buffalo Bills.

From RotoBaller

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle should be deemed a quality WR2 option when Miami plays host to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night Football. The Ravens have been among the league's worst in defending the pass, ranking a lowly 27th against fantasy receivers. While Miami has been a trainwreck for most of this season, from a fantasy perspective, there's a lot to like with Waddle. With fellow receiver Tyreek Hill (knee) out for the year and tight end Darren Waller (pectoral) on injured reserve, Waddle is clearly the team's top option and facing a defense that has had consistent issues defending receivers over the past two seasons. Waddle should have a solid target floor, and with the potential for a high-scoring game, there is a reasonable chance for a big performance on the table.
