Jaylen Waddle

Waddle brought in three of six targets for 40 yards in the Dolphins' 21-17 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Per usual, Waddle was the focal point of the Dolphins' offense. He led the team in catches and racked up a 26 percent target share. Tua Tagovailoa continued to force the ball his way, often to his detriment. Tua's only interception of the day came on a deep shot to a well-covered Waddle. He was nearly picked off while throwing to Waddle a second time later in the game. Fantasy managers, of course, are thrilled to see Tagovailoa doing whatever it takes to get the ball in Waddle's hands. Facing a weak Jets secondary in Week 14, Waddle will remain in the WR2 ranks despite the quiet showing today.

Tagovailoa struggled with down-to-down accuracy for the better part of four quarters in this game, as evidenced by his 52 percent completion rate. Tua could have found the end zone once today, but he threw a short pass at De'Von Achane's head instead of leading him for a leisurely walk into the end zone. Per usual, he also forced the ball into Jaylen Waddle's hands, even win his top wideout wasn't open. Tua's only interception of the day came on a deep shot to Waddle near the end zone. A Saints safety sitting over top broke on the ball for an easy interception. Tagovailoa nearly had a second interception while forcing the ball to Waddle on a short toss, but the ball hit the ground as a Saints defender attempted to bring it in. The Dolphins are now riding a three-game win streak into Week 14, but Tua has to play better if Miami is going to stay hot. He will be a low-end QB2 next week versus the Jets.

Mike McDaniel said his return is in play and we'd tentatively consider Waller an optimistic questionable. If he plays, Waller is a streamable TE1 against the Saints with the Dolphins hurting for secondary options to accompany Jaylen Waddle and De'Von Achane.

He'll play against the Saints and should be considered a WR1/WR2, though a Darren Waller return could conceivably keep his ceiling lower than it has been. Waddle will be an easy play in most fantasy leagues regardless of Waller's status.
