Miami Dolphins Transactions

Sunday, January 15

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) is active for the wild-card game against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but he will serve in a backup role to rookie Skylar Thompson with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) ruled out. Bridgewater was limited in practice this week after dislocating the pinkie finger on his throwing hand in Week 17. He hasn't played since, although he'll be available in case of emergency on wild-card weekend in a very tough matchup against the Bills defense on the road in a hostile environment. Thompson will likely have a rough go of it in just his third career start, so we would recommend that fantasy managers stay away from him. Wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle will see their targets, but they have a considerably lower ceiling and floor.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is expected to be the team's starting quarterback next season, according to league sources. And if the Dolphins pull off a huge upset and beat the division-rival Buffalo Bills in the wild-card round on Sunday, there's a chance that Tagovailoa could be cleared from the concussion protocol to play in the Divisional Round. But regardless of what happens against the Bills, the Dolphins have been pleased with Tagovailoa's development under first-year head coach Mike McDaniel, according to sources. Medical professionals are also confident that he should be able to resume his NFL career next year after he suffered two concussions. The 24-year-old has been in the concussion protocol since the day after Christmas, but his long-term prognosis looks promising.
		Miami Dolphins offensive tackle Terron Armstead (hip, knee, pectoral, toe) is officially active for the wild-card game against the division-rival Buffalo Bills on Sunday after coming into the game with a questionable tag. The 31-year-old only put in one limited practice on Friday, but he'll be on the field for the third meeting against Buffalo this year. Armstead didn't play in the Week 18 regular season finale and was uncertain if he'd be able to play in the postseason, but his return will be huge for Miami's offensive line against a tough Bills pass rush. Armstead is expected to return to left tackle to help protect rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson's blind side. The Dolphins will be missing offensive linemen Brandon Shell (knee), Kendall Lamm (ankle) and Liam Eichenberg (hand).
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) is questionable to return against the Buffalo Bills. Waddle exited during the first quarter of Sunday's Wild Card game after failing to catch a pass on the right sideline. Prior to departing, the second-year wideout had zero receptions on two targets. Trent Sherfield should step into the No. 2 receiver role (alongside Tyreek Hill) until Waddle can return.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) returned to Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills. He exited during the first quarter and was initially listed as questionable to return. Now, the second-year wideout has checked back into the contest and will look to bounce back from a frustrating start in which he was unable to haul in either of his two targets.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (ankle) and quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) were both limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. The Dolphins fully expect Waddle to be active on Sunday in the wild-card game against the Buffalo Bills. However, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) already ruled out and Bridgewater questionable to play with a dislocated pinkie finger and knee injury, Waddle and All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill will have much lower ceilings against a strong defense. The Dolphins said earlier this week that they were preparing to start rookie Skylar Thompson on Sunday. Thompson would be making just his third career start, so Miami's offense could struggle mightily to move the football this weekend.
		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (illness) was a full participant in practice on Thursday, which has him trending in the right direction after only logging a limited session on Wednesday. Wilson was unable to play against the Buffalo Bills back in Week 15, so Sunday will be the first time this year he's faced their defense. Raheem Mostert (thumb) is still dealing with a fractured thumb and is in danger of missing this game, which means the bulk of the workload would fall on Wilson's shoulders. On top of that, since rookie Skylar Thompson is slated to start, they could rely on Wilson even more. Starting him in DFS or any other format still presents a big amount of risk, because the Bills could make this a high-scoring affair.
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that as of Friday, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has not advanced to the on-field football activity portion of the league's concussion protocols. He was already ruled out for this weekend's game against the Buffalo Bills. Meanwhile, the Dolphins are optimistic that Teddy Bridgewater (pinkie) will be active as rookie Skylar Thompson's backup this Sunday. Tagovailoa is dealing with his second concussion of the season, and his slow progress is concerning. Even if the Dolphins pulled off a monumental upset and beat the Bills on wild-card weekend, it's probably a long shot that Tagovailoa would be able to play next weekend.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) will not play in the Wild Card game against the Buffalo Bills. Mostert suffered a broken thumb in the playoff-clinching win over the Jets, so it remains to be seen whether he could return next week should the Dolphins survive and advance. With Mostert out of the picture, Jeff Wilson Jr. should see a healthy workload. That said, Buffalo should score with ease and force rookie Skylar Thompson into obvious passing situations. It's tough to project Wilson to have much volume or touchdown upside, so he's generally a weak DFS play in this game.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (ankle) and running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (illness) both returned to full practices on Friday and have been removed from the injury report for wild-card weekend. They will both play on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. Miami is probably going to be forced to rely on the arm of rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson often this weekend, but even then, fantasy managers should find it difficult to trust both Waddle and Tyreek Hill against a strong defense. Even with Raheem Mostert (thumb) being ruled out, Wilson will also be a hard-to-trust DFS RB with Thompson leading Miami's offense on the road in a hostile environment. Salvon Ahmed should back up Wilson in the backfield.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) was limited in practice all week and is officially questionable to suit up in Sunday's wild-card game against the division-rival Buffalo Bills. The Dolphins have already announced that seventh-round rookie Skylar Thompson will make the start this weekend, so if Bridgewater is active, he'll be the backup. The 30-year-old fractured the pinkie finger on his throwing hand in Week 17 and served as Thompson's backup in the Week 18 regular season finale. Starter Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) hasn't played since Christmas Day after suffering his second concussion of the year. Fantasy managers should stay far away from Thompson in playoff leagues.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice while dealing with a fractured thumb. Mostert suffered what the team is referring to as a serious break of his thumb in the Week 18 win over the New York Jets, and his status for Sunday's wild-card contest against the Buffalo Bills is now in question. Fantasy managers are already fading most of Miami's offensive skill players with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) ruled out and rookie Skylar Thompson expected to make the start against a formidable defense. Mostert did have 17 carries for a season-high 136 yards on the ground in the most recent meeting with Buffalo in Week 15, but things are much different now. If Mostert is unable to play, Jeff Wilson Jr. will be asked to take on a bigger role.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (ankle) and running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (illness) were both limited in Wednesday's practice. It would be a big surprise if either Waddle or Wilson were unable to play this weekend against the Buffalo Bills in their wild-card matchup on Sunday. Waddle was the WR7 in half-point PPR scoring in his second NFL season and caught five passes for 44 yards in Week 18 against the New York Jets with rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson under center, but all of Miami's offensive skill players have real bust potential for fantasy managers with Thompson expected to make another start against Buffalo. Wilson could see a bigger role in the backfield if Raheem Mostert can't play through a fractured thumb, but he, too, should be faded in a difficult matchup.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. In addition to a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand, Bridgewater is dealing with a knee injury that could sideline him for the wild-card game on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. The 30-year-old served as rookie Skylar Thompson's backup in the Week 18 regular season finale. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has already been ruled out and the Dolphins are planning as if Thompson will make a second straight start this weekend. However this plays out under center for the Dolphins this weekend, fantasy managers should be avoiding Miami's QB situation against a tough Bills defense.
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that offensive tackle Terron Armstead (toe) is frustrated and unsure if he'll be able to return for the playoffs. Armstead missed the last two weeks, didn't practice on Wednesday and may not be able to play in the wild-card game this Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. He's also dealing with pectoral, knee and hip injuries. Not having the Pro Bowl tackle for a tough matchup against the Bills defense would just be another dagger for a Dolphins team that is extremely beat up entering the postseason. They'll also be without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) and potentially running back Raheem Morris, who is dealing with a fractured thumb.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) was not present at practice on Thursday for the second straight day this week. Mostert is dealing with a significant fractured thumb, and his availability for this weekend's wild-card game against the Buffalo Bills is in serious jeopardy. Jeff Wilson Jr. is also dealing with an illness this week, so Miami's backfield is pretty banged up heading into the postseason. With quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) ruled out and rookie Skylar Thompson in line to get the start, fantasy managers are going to want to downgrade all of Miami's offensive skill players in fantasy leagues, including wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's wild-card playoff game against the Buffalo Bills. Head coach Mike McDaniel said that as of Wednesday, Tagovailoa still hasn't been cleared to resume football activities with the team after suffering his second concussion of the season on Christmas Day. Teddy Bridgewater is also dealing with a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand that he suffered in Week 17, so the Dolphins are currently preparing to start rookie Skylar Thompson this weekend. The 24-year-old Tagovailoa played in only 13 games in his third NFL season but still had a career year thanks to the addition of All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill. Injuries have been a problem for Tua early in his career, and it's fair to wonder if his head injuries will continue to be an issue heading into 2023.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert suffered a broken thumb in the win over the New York Jets in Week 18. Since Miami clinched a playoff berth by way of a win and Patriots' loss, his status for the Wild Card game against the Buffalo Bills is in jeopardy. However, running backs have played with broken fingers before, so DFSers should monitor his status up to game day on Sunday. His pass-catching upside and ball security could be affected, but his speed and touchdown upside will likely remain the same if he can play. If he can't play Jeff Wilson Jr. should see a healthy workload as the clear cut RB1.
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) hasn't been cleared for any football activity yet, but the team is hoping to have more clarity on Wednesday. The Dolphins are hoping for the best and to have Tagovailoa available in the wild-card round this Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, but they'll have to see how he progresses through the concussion protocol this week. The 24-year-old hasn't played since Christmas Day after suffering his second concussion of the year. He'd be a shaky DFS pick against a strong Bills defense if he makes his return this weekend. If he sits out again, there is a chance that Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) could start over rookie Skylar Thompson.

Sunday, January 08

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) is officially active for the Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Jets on Sunday. While he's active, he will not start and will serve as rookie Skylar Thompson's backup in a must-win game for the Dolphins. Bridgewater suffered a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand in last week's loss to the New England Patriots. It's possible that the 30-year-old enters Sunday's game if Thompson is struggling. Miami also signed Mike Glennon and elevated him from the practice squad to the active roster as additional QB depth. With Thompson getting the starting nod, fantasy managers need to downgrade all of Miami's offensive weapons.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (ankle) is questionable to return against the New York Jets in Week 18. He hauled in two of four targets for 23 yards before exiting. Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield should lead the receiver corps until Hill can return. Miami, led by third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson, needs a win and New England loss in order to secure a Wild Card spot.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the New York Jets. He briefly exited and was listed as questionable, but he's now back in the contest as Miami looks to keep its playoff aspirations alive. The Dolphins need a win and New England loss in order to secure the No. 7 seed.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) exited Week 18 against the New York Jets and is officially listed as questionable. The 30-year-old rushed 11 times for 71 yards before departing the contest. Jeff Wilson Jr. should lead Miami's backfield until Mostert can return.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (thumb) exited Week 18 against the New York Jets and won't return. The 30-year-old rushed 11 times for 71 yards before departing the contest. Jeff Wilson Jr. should lead Miami's backfield the rest of the way.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee, finger) is questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup with the New York Jets. The veteran is banged up and wasn't expected to play. However, it appears he's moving in the right direction after practicing in a limited capacity during the week. Bridgewater got the start for the injured Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) in the Week 17 loss to the Patriots, amassing one touchdown, one pick, and 161 yards passing before exiting with a pinky injury. That said, Skylar Thompson would be in line to start even if Bridgewater is available in Week 18, but neither man offers much from a fantasy standpoint against a tough Jets defense.

		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is officially ruled out for Week 18 against the New York Jets on Sunday. This comes as no surprise, as the Dolphins said earlier this week that Tagovailoa wasn't in their QB plans for the regular season finale in a must-win game. And with Teddy Bridgewater (pinkie) dealing with a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand, rookie Skylar Thompson will make his second career start this weekend. Tagovailoa has suffered two concussions this year, so it remains to be seen if he'll even be available to play if the Dolphins make the postseason with a win and some help in Week 18. If he has played his last game of the 2022 season, the 24-year-old would finish with a 64.8% completion percentage, a career-high 3,548 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and eight interceptions in 13 games in his third NFL season.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) returned to a full practice on Friday and has been removed from the final injury report. He will suit up on Sunday in the Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Jets. Waddle put in limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday. The Dolphins need to win and get some help this weekend in order to secure the AFC's final playoff spot, so Miami is playing all their starters. However, the 24-year-old pass-catcher's fantasy ceiling and floor will be lowered with third-string rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson making only his second NFL start with both Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) and Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) injured. Taking passes from Bridgewater and Thompson last week, Waddle caught three passes for 52 yards.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger, knee) and wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) were limited in Wednesday's practice. Bridgewater is dealing with a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand, and his status for Week 18 against the New York Jets will depend on swelling and how well he can grip a football. This could come down to a game-time decision. If he doesn't get clearance, rookie Skylar Thompson would make his second career start in a must-win game with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) unlikely to play. Waddle has dealt with a shoulder injury at times this year, but he should be fine to start this weekend. The second-year wideout is the WR7 in half-point PPR scoring this year, but he'll need to be downgraded in Week 18 in DFS and season-long leagues with either Bridgewater or Thompson tossing him the pigskin.
		Miami Dolphins linebacker Bradley Chubb (ankle) was seen stretching, but did not take part in Wednesday's practice. The 26-year-old is coming off of a missed game in Week 17 where the Dolphins lost to the New England Patriots. Now, with Miami's playoff hopes hanging in the balance, the team will hope to welcome back their high-profile mid-season trade acquisition. However, with Chubb missing practice, his situation is not off to a strong start for the Dolphins' crucial matchup against the New York Jets. Keep an eye on his status heading into Week 18.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee, finger) remained limited during Thursday's practice. This is the second day in a row that Bridgewater has been limited in practice. He continues to deal with a knee issue and dislocated pinkie finger in his throwing hand. It sounds like Bridgewater was able to make short throws during Thursday's practice. It appears the 30-year-old has a good shot at suiting up for the Week 18 matchup against the New York Jets. Otherwise, Skylar Thompson would make his second career start with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) unlikely to play. The Dolphins offense would take a hit if Thompson does end up making the start.

		With the Miami Dolphins preparing to be without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) and with Teddy Bridgewater dealing with a dislocated pinkie finger, the team signed veteran quarterback Mike Glennon to their practice squad on Wednesday, according to a source. If both Tagovailoa and Bridgewater are unavailable for the Week 18 game against the New York Jets, rookie Skylar Thompson would be in line to make his second career start, with Glennon serving as his backup. The 33-year-old Glennon has not made an appearance for an NFL team this year. He played in six games (four starts) for the New York Giants in 2021 and went 90-for-167 for 790 yards, four touchdowns and 10 interceptions.
		Tests on Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater's pinkie finger on his throwing hand showed that it was dislocated, but not broken, according to a source. His availability for the Week 18 contest against the New York Jets will come down to swelling and if he can grip the ball well enough to throw. The Dolphins already said that Tua Tagovailoa, who is still in the concussion protocol, isn't in the plans this week, so if Bridgewater isn't cleared, it will be rookie Skylar Thompson making his second career start against a tough defense. Miami signed veteran Mike Glennon as insurance. Either way, fantasy managers will need to downgrade the Dolphins pass-catchers for their matchup against rookie cornerback Sauce Gardner and the Jets defense.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (finger) exited Sunday's loss to the Patriots. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport provided an update, reporting that the signal-caller suffered a broken finger on his throwing hand, putting his availability in doubt for Week 18 against the New York Jets. However, he will undergo further imaging to determine the severity of the injury. Bridgewater got the start for Tua Tagovailoa (head), who was ruled out with a concussion, and finished 161 yards off 12-for-19 passing while throwing a touchdown and a pick. If Tagovailoa doesn't clear concussion protocol and Bridgewater can't go for the AFC East matchup, Skylar Thompson would likely be in line to start. Thompson went 12-for-19 passing for 161 yards, one touchdown, and one pick, so he isn't the most enticing option on the planet for fantasy managers.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (pinkie) suffered a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand in the third quarter of the Week 17 loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday and will undergo testing and imaging on Monday. The Dolphins hope that Bridgewater's finger isn't broken as well, but we'll know more soon. Tua Tagovailoa is still in the concussion protocol, so if Bridgewater cannot play in Week 18 against the New York Jets, rookie Skylar Thompson would likely be in for his second career start in a must-win game for Miami. After taking over for Bridgewater on Sunday, Thompson went 12-for-21 for 104 yards, a touchdown and an interception. Stay tuned for more details on Bridgewater's and Tagovailoa's injury situations as the week unfolds.
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel told reporters on Monday that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is not part of the team's QB plans for the Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Jets, while Teddy Bridgewater (pinkie) and rookie Skylar Thompson are. Tagovailoa remains in the concussion protocol after missing Week 16, while Bridgewater is undergoing tests on a dislocated pinkie finger on his throwing hand. Fantasy managers should be fully expecting Tagovailoa to be out again this week, and the 24-year-old might not even be available if they make the playoffs after suffering his second concussion of the year. If Thompson makes his second career start against the Jets, it will be another fantasy downgrade for wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

		Miami Dolphins tackle Terron Armstead (toe, pec, knee, hip) has been ruled out for Week 17 against the New England Patriots. This comes as no surprise considering he missed practice all week long and had been listed as doubtful. Greg Little projects as the starting left tackle in his absence.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) hopes to return for the playoffs if the team is eligible, according to Jay Glazer of FOX Sports. He suffered his third concussion against the Green Bay Packers on Christmas Day and was deemed inactive for Week 17. It looks like he'll miss Week 18, too, putting Teddy Bridgewater in line to start against the New York Jets. Glazer added that Tagovailoa, while reviewing film, failed to remember some of the mistakes he made against the Packers, which indicated to head coach Mike McDaniel that the quarterback could be concussed.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (right finger) is questionable to return against the New England Patriots in Week 17. He exited in the third quarter after completing 12 of 19 passes for 161 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Skylar Thompson took over at quarterback with Bridgewater sidelined.

Saturday, December 31

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee) will officially start against the New England Patriots in Week 17 after Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) was ruled out. Bridgewater saw some action earlier this season, mainly in Weeks 4 and 6. Between those two games, he went 37-for-57 with three touchdowns, three interceptions, 21 rushing yards, and five sacks. This week, he'll go up against a Patriots defense that has been stingy against opposing quarterbacks. With that said, the unit will be without Jack Jones (knee) and Marcus Jones (concussion), who have been ruled out, and possibly Jonathan Jones (chest) and Jalen Mills (groin), both listed as questionable. As a result, Bridgewater ranks as a fringe top-24 option and is only relevant in leagues where you can start multiple quarterbacks.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) remained away from the team on Thursday, which is another indicator that he's unlikely to play in Week 17 against the New England Patriots. His absence could extend even further, as nobody knows when he may be back, not even his brother. Tagovailoa suffered his second concussion of the year last Sunday but didn't have symptoms until Monday. Teddy Bridgewater is preparing to make the start this weekend in a crucial divisional matchup. While nobody knows for sure when Tagovailoa will be back for Miami, fantasy managers shouldn't expect to have him for championship matchups this weekend. Bridgewater would be a low-end QB2 for those in superflex leagues if he ends up making the start.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has officially been ruled out for Week 17 against the New England Patriots, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. Tagovailoa suffered his second concussion of the year in the Christmas Day loss to the Green Bay Packers and has been away from the team this week, so backup Teddy Bridgewater will get the nod on Sunday against the Pats. The question now becomes, does the 24-year-old Tagovailoa clear the concussion protocols in time to play in Week 18? He's being evaluated on a day-to-day basis, but there's no guarantee we see Tua again this season if the Dolphins don't make the playoffs. With Bridgewater under center, Miami's offensive skill players should receive a downgrade in fantasy. However, receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle remain must-starts.

		NFL chief medical officer Dr. Allen Sills said on Tuesday that Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head) showed zero injury behaviors and reported zero symptoms "that would have triggered the (league's concussion) protocol" during the Week 16 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. However, head coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Tagovailoa had been put in the league's concussion protocol after reporting symptoms. It's not uncommon for people to show symptoms on a delayed basis, though, and this is the second time that Tagovailoa has been in the concussion protocol. His multiple head injuries in 2022 calls into question his availability for the rest of the season. If the 24-year-old cannot get cleared this week, backup Teddy Bridgewater would be in line to start in Week 17 against the New England Patriots.
		The Miami Dolphins placed running back Myles Gaskin (illness) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday and activated offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg (knee) off Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Gaskin will miss the final two regular season games after missing the Week 16 game on Christmas Day against the Green Bay Packers. If the Dolphins make the playoffs, they'd have to advance to the AFC Championship for Gaskin to have a shot at returning before the season is over. The 25-year-old has been operating as RB depth behind Jeff Wilson Jr. and Raheem Mostert this year, putting him well off the fantasy radar. Gaskin has only been active in four games and has 10 carries for 26 yards while adding four catches on six targets for 28 yards through the air.
		Doctors have confirmed that Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head) suffered a concussion in the Christmas Day loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Head coach Mike McDaniel said Tagovailoa has been feeling "better than yesterday." Tagovailoa didn't show any symptoms of a concussion during or after the Week 16 game, but he self reported symptoms on Monday and was placed in the league's protocols. It's the 24-year-old's third head injury of 2022 and the second time he's been in the concussion protocol, so he's unlikely to play in Week 17 against the New England Patriots. Fantasy managers must plan accordingly. With backup Teddy Bridgewater in line to start, it will lower the ceiling and floor of wideouts Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was placed in the league's concussion protocol on Monday. Tagovailoa appeared to emerge from his team's Week 16 loss unscathed but apparently that wasn't the case as he reported symptoms when he spoke to team doctors on Monday. Tagovailoa has been in the league's concussion protocol twice in the 2022 season now, including the infamous head injury he suffered during Week 4. Head coach Mike McDaniel stated that he was unsure when Tagovailoa might have suffered the injury during Week 16's game. McDaniel went on to say that backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater will be taking snaps with the first-team offense while Tagovailoa is sidelined but the coach would not name a starting quarterback for Week 17's important matchup against the New England Patriots. Fantasy gamers should err on the side of caution and be planning to be without Tagovailoa in Week 17.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) is officially active for the Christmas Day meeting with Green Bay. The 27-year-old got banged up in Week 14 and subsequently missed the following contest with Buffalo. With Wilson back in the lineup, he will likely split work with Raheem Mostert, who had 136 yards off 17 carries against the Bills in Week 15. Although Mostert may get more touches than Wilson, both men should be considered nothing more than flex options in Week 16.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee) is available for the Christmas Day showdown with the Packers. The veteran was listed on the injury report because of his knee, which is nothing new for the signal-caller. However, with Tua Tagovailoa under center in Week 16, Bridgewater won't be a factor for fantasy managers.

Friday, December 23

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running backs Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) and Myles Gaskin (illness) are both listed as questionable to play on Christmas Day on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers in Week 16. Wilson was held out as a precaution in last week's loss to the Buffalo Bills, but he was limited in practice all of this week and is trending toward making his return this weekend. The last time Wilson saw double-digit carries was in Week 12 against the Texans, when he carried the ball 13 times for 39 yards and his fourth rushing TD of the season. If the 27-year-old is active on Sunday, he figures to split the backfield work with Raheem Mostert, who had 17 carries for 136 yards last Saturday, making both backs shaky RB3/flex options for fantasy purposes.

Thursday, December 22

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. After being considered "close" to suiting up in Week 15 but eventually missing the game against the Buffalo Bills, the 27-year-old appears to be on the right track for Week 16 with an early appearance at practice. Wilson's limited participation is a good sign, but his situation is one to monitor throughout the week. If he plays against the Green Bay Packers, the fifth-year back will likely return to being a flex-level player in a committee alongside teammate Raheem Mostert.
		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) is feeling better this week and is hopeful to play in Week 16 against the Green Bay Packers on Christmas Day this Sunday. Apparently Wilson was very close to playing in last week's loss to the Buffalo Bills but was ultimately held out as a precaution. The 27-year-old returned to a limited practice on Wednesday, and barring a setback to close out the week, it's looking like he'll return to Miami's backfield to share touches with Raheem Mostert. With Wilson out last Saturday, Mostert had season-highs in rushing yards (136), scrimmage yards (156) and snaps (76 percent). Wilson's return against Green Bay would muddy the waters in Miami's backfield.

		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) was close to playing in the Week 15 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Saturday, and the team considers him day-to-day. Wilson injured his hip in Week 14 and was inactive for the first time this year on Saturday. With the 27-year-old out, Raheem Mostert led Miami's backfield with 17 carries for 136 yards while also catching one of his two targets for a 20-yard gain. We'll have to monitor Wilson's practice status this week, but he appears to have a good chance of returning to action on Christmas against the Green Bay Packers in Week 16. If Wilson is active, there's a good chance that he'll be sharing more of the backfield touches with Mostert, making him a shaky fantasy flex in what is the semifinals in most fantasy leagues.

		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) was been officially ruled out for the Week 15 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The 27-year-old was questionable coming into this contest due to hip discomfort. It sounds like Wilson has been improving, but not enough to suit up for this game. In his absence, Raheem Mostert should get a bulk of the carries in the backfield. The Dolphins should mix in Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskin as well, but Mostert is the best streaming option between the three backs.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (ankle) was listed as a full participant in the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday. Hill went down as limited on Tuesday's practice estimation. The 28-year-old speedster was in and out of the lineup in the Sunday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers due to an ankle injury, but he still managed 81 receiving yards and two touchdowns (one on a fumble recovery). Barring a setback, the Cheetah should be able to play on Saturday against the division-rival Buffalo Bills in Week 15. It's not the greatest matchup -- Hill caught two of four targets for a season-low 33 yards against Buffalo in Week 3 -- but he remains a must-start WR1 in fantasy nonetheless.
		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) missed his second straight practice of the week on Wednesday. Wilson injured his hip in the Week 14 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night and is looking likely to sit out this weekend against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday unless he can return to practice on Thursday. If Wilson is unable to get the green light against Buffalo, Raheem Mostert would likely see the majority of the team's backfield touches, with Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed combining to serve in a change-of-pace role. Mostert saw double-digit carries (11) last Sunday for the first time since Week 8 with Wilson going down with injury. If Wilson is out, Mostert will have more fantasy appeal, albeit in a tough matchup.
		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) is officially listed as questionable for the Week 15 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. He was able to get in a limited practice session on Thursday, but continues to deal with hip discomfort. It sounds like Wilson is improving, but it's unknown if he'll be healthy enough to suit up on Saturday. Otherwise, Raheem Mostert would likely see a majority of the carries in the Miami backfield. The expectation is that Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskins would be mixed in as well. However, Mostert would be the only back worth using as a flex play for Week 15.

		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report. Wilson was injured in the Sunday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers and is in danger of missing the Week 15 game against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday unless he gets back to practice on Wednesday or Thursday. Raheem Mostert saw double-digit carries (11) for the first time since Week 8 and turned them into only 37 rushing yard in Week 14, adding one catch for seven yards. If Wilson is unable to play this weekend, Mostert should operate as the primary RB for Miami and would on the RB2/3 borderline in a tough matchup against the Bills. Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed would be battling for backup duties.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on the team's Tuesday practice estimation. Hill fought through an ankle injury in the Sunday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers and was in and out of the lineup all night. Despite playing just 67 percent of the offensive snaps, he caught four of 10 targets for 81 yards and a touchdown and added a second TD on a fumble recovery. The 28-year-old All-Pro wideout is fully expected to be able to suit up in Week 15 against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday. Hill had just two grabs for a season-low 33 yards against Buffalo in their first meeting in Week 3, but he remains a high-end, must-start WR1 in the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues.

		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) is listed as day-to-day, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. The coach said that Wilson's test results "are more positive than the worst-case scenario it could have been. We have avoided the worst-case scenarios for sure." It doesn't mean that Wilson won't miss any time after he was hurt in the second quarter of the Sunday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, but it good news overall. If Wilson isn't able to play in Week 15 against the Buffalo Bills, Raheem Mostert would receive a fantasy boost as the likely backfield leader. Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskin would also have elevated roles. Mostert finished with a team-high 11 carries for 37 yards and also caught his only target for seven yards in the passing game.

Monday, December 12

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (hip) won't return to Sunday night's meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers. The 26-year-old walked off the field during the team's fifth possession and was eventually transported to the locker room on a cart because of a hip injury. Wilson's evening would end with four carries for 26 yards, a stat line amplified courtesy of a 20-yard carry in the second quarter. Raheem Mostert, who had been involved even before Wilson's injury, should become Miami's undisputed primary option out of the backfield for the rest of Week 14.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (ankle) dealt with an ankle injury during the Sunday night loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, but he still finished the game and caught four of his 10 targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in the 23-17 defeat. Hill also recovered a fumble for another score. But he played a season-low 32 offensive snaps. It doesn't sound like a significant injury for the Cheetah, but it's something that needs to be monitored heading into next Saturday's game against the Buffalo Bills. The 28-year-old speedster is obviously a must-start in all fantasy lineups when he's active, but there's a chance he could be limited or out to begin the fantasy playoffs in Week 15. If that's the case, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield would likely serve as the top two pass-catchers for Miami.
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that wide receiver Tyreek Hill's (ankle) injury seems to be more bumps and bruises that he can work through. It sounds as though Hill will be good to go for Week 15 against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday. The 28-year-old All-Pro wideout played just 67 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday night's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers while going in and out of the game, but he still managed four catches on 10 targets for 81 yards and a touchdown. He added another score on a fumble recovery. Hill appears to be on the right track, but fantasy managers should monitor his practice status on a shorter week. He is an absolute must-start in all fantasy formats if he plays against Buffalo.

Saturday, December 10

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill (illness) and Jaylen Waddle (fibula) do not carry injury designations heading into the weekend and will suit up for a Week 14 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Both wideouts managed to practice in full on Friday and should have no limitations for Sunday night's contest. Hill and Waddle have both been dominant this season and should be able to find success against a Chargers defense that has allowed almost 26 points per game. In what is projected to be a high-scoring affair, the two Dolphins pass-catchers should be locked into all fantasy lineups.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee) is questionable for Sunday's meeting against the L.A. Chargers. Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the injury report, so Bridgewater's status for Week 14 won't make a difference for fantasy managers, anyway. That said, even if Tagovailoa goes down during the game, Skylar Thompson would likely be the guy to take over under center.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday. So far, this week is going as expected since the team was counting on him to be limited early on. He suffered an ankle injury against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13, but it shouldn't be one that keeps him out of the Week 14 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. As long as he has Tyreek Hill and then the possibility of also Jaylen Waddle, he should be ready for a solid week. He can be looked at as a mid-QB1 in all fantasy formats.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (illness) missed practice on Thursday with an illness. As long as Hill is able to do something on Friday, he should play in a Week 14 Sunday night showdown against the Los Angeles Chargers. When active, the Cheetah is an elite must-start WR1 for fantasy managers. In half-point PPR scoring, Hill is the WR3 heading into Week 14 with 96 catches for 1,379 yards and five touchdowns in his first year in Miami. The Chargers defense has been much better against the pass than against the run this year, but Hill should be locked into all starting fantasy lineups if he's feeling well enough to play on Sunday night.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (leg) returned to a full practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday with a fibula injury. The return to a full practice on Thursday is a good sign that Waddle will be a full-go in Week 14 on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers after leaving the game briefly in the Week 13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The 24-year-old caught just one of his five targets for nine yards in last week's loss, but that can be chalked up as an outlier with the second-year pass-catcher getting injured in the contest. Expect him to bounce back if he's fully healthy this weekend. In half-point PPR leagues in 2022, Waddle has been the WR9 with 57 receptions (89 targets) for 972 yards and six touchdowns in 12 games.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (leg) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. He briefly exited last Sunday's game against the 49ers but was able to return. The 24-year-old was limited to start the week with a fibula injury and will have two more chances to log a full practice ahead of Sunday's contest against the Chargers. The former first-round pick has been terrific this season, catching 57 passes for 972 yards and six touchdowns over 12 games in 2022. Waddle remains a must-start in all league formats despite the tough matchup against a Chargers defense that ranks second in DVOA versus opposing WR2s.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) is expected to be limited in practice early in the week due to the ankle injury he suffered in the Week 13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, but it shouldn't prevent him from playing in Week 14 on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers, according to a source. Tagovailoa was injured late on Sunday and didn't return with the game already decided. The 24-year-old has had a breakout season in 2022 with the addition of All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill, and he threw for 295 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in the Week 13 loss. Against the Chargers defense in a showdown on Sunday night, Tagovailoa should be considered a midrange QB1 in fantasy.

Tuesday, December 06

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Miami Dolphins placed offensive tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) on Injured Reserve on Monday and signed former No. 1 overall pick Eric Fisher in a corresponding move, according to league sources. This will be Jackson's second stint on the Injured Reserve this year due to an ankle injury, so there's a chance we won't see him again in 2022. The 23-year-old played just one game since he came off IR the first time, and the former first-rounder has played in just two games this year. Fisher started 15 games for the Indianapolis Colts in 2021 and could see significant playing time sooner than later in Miami with Terron Armstead (pectoral) also injured for the Dolphins offensive line.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) didn't return to the Week 13 loss to the 49ers. Obviously, that left many fantasy managers concerned. However, per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Tagovailoa's injury isn't considered serious, and he could have returned to the game if needed. The signal-caller has already missed plenty of time this season but has played well when he's been on the field. That said, he's expected to be under center in Week 14 against the Los Angeles Chargers, barring a setback. If he can't suit up, Teddy Bridgewater (knee), who didn't play on Sunday, or Skylar Thompson, may lead the offense.

Sunday, December 04

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin (shoulder, ankle) and quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee) are officially inactive for Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Both players had been listed as questionable. Gaskin totaled 21 scrimmage yards last week, but with Raheem Mostert (knee) returning to complement Jeff Wilson Jr., he would not have been a key contributor even if healthy. Meanwhile, Bridgewater's absence will put rookie Skylar Thompson in position to back up Tua Tagovailoa once again.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (leg) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting with the 49ers. The wideout suffered a leg injury, although fortunately, he was able to job off the field when going for X-rays. Fantasy managers are certainly anxiously awaiting an update on this one. However, if Waddle doesn't make it back, he'll finish the day by catching none of his four targets.
		Miami Dolphins linebacker Elandon Roberts (calf) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the 49ers because of a calf injury. The 28-year-old was leading the team with 71 total tackles heading into Week 13 while also being responsible for 2.5 sacks. It will be a tough blow if Roberts misses time, so fantasy managers are hoping for a positive update.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (leg) returned in the second half of Sunday's meeting against the 49ers. The wideout suffered a leg injury and briefly exited for X-rays. However, while it's good news Waddle made it back out there, fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if he carries an injury designation heading into the Week 14 matchup versus the Los Angeles Chargers.

Saturday, December 03

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was removed from the final injury report on Friday and will suit up in Week 13 against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Meanwhile, running back Myles Gaskin (ankle, shoulder) is listed as questionable after returning to a limited practice on Friday. Mostert missed the Week 12 game coming off the team's bye week, but he'll return this weekend and is expected to slot in behind Jeff Wilson Jr. in Miami's backfield. The 30-year-old did find the end zone on the ground in each of his previous two games, but he also saw just 17 rushing attempts combined while sharing touches with Wilson. Against a tough 49ers run D, Mostert will be a volatile, touchdown-dependent RB3/flex for fantasy managers.

Friday, December 02

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		The Miami Dolphins ruled out right tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) for the Week 13 game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday are listing left tackle Terron Armstead (pectoral, toe) as doubtful to play. The Dolphins are likely to be without both starting offensive tackles for a big game in Week 13 against the tough 49ers pass rush, so this could be a big storyline in Sunday's game. Jackson played in Week 12 for the first time since the season opener, but the 23-year-old former first-rounder suffered a new injury to the same ankle. With both Jackson and Armstead likely to miss this game, the Dolphins will turn to Brandon Shell and Greg Little to bookend their offensive line. It's bad news for the Dolphins offense overall.

Thursday, December 01

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was listed as limited in Wednesday's practice. Mostert was held out of the easy Week 12 win over the Houston Texans coming off the team's bye week, but the Dolphins expect him to return this Sunday to face his former team, the San Francisco 49ers. Jeff Wilson Jr. has become Miami's preferred back, but he and Mostert will likely share the backfield touches this weekend against a stout Niners defense. Coming off an injury and dealing with shared touches in a bad matchup doesn't exactly make Mostert enticing from a fantasy perspective. If he's active, he'll be a low-upside, touchdown-dependent RB3/flex that is looking to score for a third consecutive game.
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that left tackle Terron Armstead (pectoral) won't have surgery and isn't being ruled out for Week 13 against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. According to sources, Armstead has been telling people he's aiming to play this weekend after straining his pectoral muscle in the Week 12 win over the Houston Texans. The Dolphins will be smart with the 31-year-old, but if he can play, that will obviously be great news for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami offense while going up against a strong 49ers pass rush. Starting right tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) is also iffy for this game, so Miami's offensive line will be something to watch in this matchup.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (cramping) wasn't listed on the team's injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. He exited the Week 12 win over the Texans early due to cramping and did not return. The 28-year-old was removed for precautionary reasons and will suit up against the 49ers in Week 13. Hill has been terrific this season, catching 87 passes for 1,233 yards and four touchdowns across 11 games. The former Kansas City Chief has a tough matchup on Sunday against a 49ers defense that ranks 15th in DVOA against opposing WR1s. Despite the tough matchup, Hill is a must-start in any format for Week 13.
		Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin (shoulder, ankle) did not practice Wednesday. He logged a season-high 24 snaps with backfield teammate Raheem Mostert (knee) ruled out for last Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. The 25-year-old will have two more chances to practice this week to have an opportunity to suit up against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. The former seventh-round pick has 26 rushing yards on 10 carries over three games in 2022. Gaskin is buried on the RB depth chart behind Jeff Wilson and Mostert and is not on the fantasy radar even if he is active against the 49ers.

Wednesday, November 30

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that running back Raheem Mostert (knee) "should be ready to go this week." "I think he could've played (vs. Houston) and if we had adhered to his hopes and desires he might've played last week. It was too risky to what he means to the team," McDaniel said. Fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on Mostert's practice status this week, but barring any setbacks, it sounds like he'll be back on the field this Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. However, Jeff Wilson Jr. has quickly taken over as the Dolphins' lead back after coming over from San Francisco, which has made Mostert a low-upside, touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in fantasy. Mostert has found the end zone in his last two games played, but he hasn't seen double-digit carries since Week 8.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) popped up on the injury report but was listed as a full participant in the team's practice on Wednesday. Barring any setbacks, fantasy managers should have no concerns regarding Tagovailoa's availability for a Week 13 bout with the San Francisco 49ers. Despite the tough matchup, the third-year signal-caller should remain in starting lineups in all fantasy formats on Sunday.

		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said he's confident that left tackle Terron Armstead (pectoral) will play again this year after getting hurt in the Week 12 win over the Houston Texans. Armstead doesn't have a return timetable, but McDaniel said he wouldn't rule out a return within a few weeks. The 31-year-old was diagnosed with a strained pectoral on Sunday. Not having Armstead for a Week 13 matchup against a scary San Francisco 49ers defense could pose some problems for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and the rest of the Miami offense. It's likely that Greg Little will be asked to step up in Week 13 and protect Tagovailoa at left tackle.

Monday, November 28

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead (chest) is expected to miss time after suffering an injury during Sunday's game. The 31-year-old is believed to have a pectoral strain, but it's not as bad as originally believed. The Dolphins expect the three-time Pro Bowl tackle to miss some action down the stretch of the season. However, it doesn't sound like this injury is going to be season-ending for Armstead. His absence is certainly a blow to this offensive line going forward.

Sunday, November 27

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) has been ruled out for the Week 12 matchup against the Houston Texans. He was doubtful heading into this game as the Dolphins will take the cautious approach here. Jeff Wilson Jr. will be the lead back against one of the worst defenses in the league. That being said, he's looking like a strong fantasy option for Sunday's slate. The expectation is that Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskin will get mixed in as change-of-pace backs, but Wilson is the best play here.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (cramping) is questionable to return against the Houston Texans in Week 12. With the Dolphins leading by two scores late in the game, it seems unlikely that Hill will return to the contest even if he does start to feel better. The 28-year-old turned nine targets into six catches for 85 yards before exiting. He should be fine to play against the 49ers in Week 13.

Friday, November 25

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that running back Raheem Mostert's (knee) availability for the Week 12 game against the Houston Texans on Sunday will go right up to the game. McDaniel said that if Mostert can't play, it will have been very close. The 30-year-old missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday, so he'll have to get in at least a limited practice on Friday to receive a questionable tag for the weekend. With the injury aside, Mostert has lost fantasy appeal with the arrival of Jeff Wilson Jr., who has basically taken over as the Dolphins' lead back. Even if Mostert is active against Houston, he'll be a shaky touchdown-dependent RB3/flex with limited upside. If he's out, Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskin would be fighting for change-of-pace work behind Wilson.
		Houston Texans rookie first-round cornerback Derek Stingley (hamstring) will miss his second straight game in Week 12 against the Miami Dolphins due to a strained hamstring. Stingley has been sidelined at practice since last week and will not play this Sunday, leaving Houston's secondary vulnerable against perhaps the best receiving duo in the NFL in Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Stingley hasn't allowed a touchdown pass all season. He was replaced at outside cornerback by Desmond King against the Washington Commanders last week, starting opposite Steven Nelson with Tavierre Thomas filling in as the primary nickel. Stingley has 43 tackles, one interception and one sack in nine starts for the Texans in his first year in the NFL.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) is officially listed as doubtful to play in Week 12 against the Houston Texans. Head coach Mike McDaniel said it will be an uphill battle for Mostert to play on Sunday against the Texans, so it will be the Jeff Wilson Jr. show against Houston's last-ranked run defense this weekend. Fantasy managers that have Wilson rostered need to fire him up in a starting spot in all leagues. It's a disappointing development for Mostert's managers with the Dolphins coming off their bye week. The 30-year-old is now clearly behind Wilson in Miami's backfield and will be more of a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex when he returns to action. With Mostert most likely out Sunday, Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskin will battle for change-of-pace work behind Wilson.

Monday, November 14

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah (triceps) is done for the year. The 28-year-old suffered a torn tricep during Sunday's win over Cleveland and will require season-ending surgery. Ogbah will finish the year with 11 total tackles and one sack, so his absence isn't a significant loss for IDP managers.

Sunday, November 13

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee) will be inactive for Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. The veteran's "chronic knee issue had a flare-up this week," so he'll sit out Sunday's contest. Rookie Skylar Thompson will dress and serve as Tua Tagovailoa's backup this week.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Trent Sherfield (toe) is listed as questionable for the Week 10 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The 26-year-old has emerged as a quality third option behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. The team will likely have Sherfield test his toe pregame before making a final decision. His absence would likely mean Cedrick Wilson Jr. moves into the third receiver role. However, Wilson hasn't been able to make much of an impact this season. Fantasy managers shouldn't run the risk of streaming Wilson even if he does play over Sherfield. The absence of Sherfield would likely just increase the value of Hill and Waddle.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Trent Sherfield (toe) is officially active for the Week 10 game against the Cleveland Browns after popping up on the injury report Sunday morning as questionable. Despite being active, Sherfield cannot be trusted in fantasy lineups and should be on the waiver wire in most single-year leagues. The 26-year-old has 18 catches on 25 targets for 184 yards and no touchdowns in nine games this year. There just aren't enough targets for Miami receivers that aren't named Tyreek Hill or Jaylen Waddle. If Sherfield is limited at all on Sunday, Cedrick Wilson Jr. should see more playing time behind Hill and Waddle. With Sherfield active, Erik Ezukanma and River Cracraft are healthy scratches.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was able to practice in full on Wednesday. Waddle has been limited in practice to begin the week recently, so he appears to be getting close to full health heading into a Week 9 matchup against the Chicago Bears on the road. The 23-year-old second-year wideout has topped 100 yards receiving four times this year, including in two of the last three weeks, and has found the end zone five times in eight games in 2022. The presence of All-Pro Tyreek Hill hasn't hurt his fantasy value like many were worried about, and he remains a must-start this weekend. Waddle is the WR4 in half-point PPR leagues at this juncture.
		The Miami Dolphins signed linebacker Bradley Chubb to a five-year, $119 million contract extension on Thursday. Miami recently acquired Chubb from the Broncos just before the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday. Chubb and a 2025 fifth-round pick will be moved to the Broncos for a 2023 first-round pick, a 2024 fourth-round selection, and running back Chase Edmonds. The 26-year-old instantly boosts Miami's defense after recording 26 tackles and 5.5 sacks over eight games in 2022. Chubb should hold steady fantasy value with his new team and remains an elite option in IDP leagues.

		The Miami Dolphins activated offensive lineman Austin Jackson (ankle) from Injured Reserve on Tuesday and placed offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg (knee) on Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Eichenberg suffered an MCL injury in the Week 8 win over the Detroit Lions and will now miss at least the next four games. Jackson has been out since getting injured in the season opener, and it remains to be seen if he'll be healthy enough to return to the starting right tackle job in a Week 9 matchup versus the Chicago Bears on the road. Greg Little and Brandon Shell have been filling in at right tackle with Jackson on the sidelines.
		The Miami Dolphins acquired outside linebacker Bradley Chubb and a fifth-round pick in 2025 from the Denver Broncos on Tuesday in exchange for running back Chase Edmonds, a first-rounder in 2023 and a fourth-rounder in 2024, according to a source. It's a lot to give up, but Chubb is an ascending young pass-rusher that is now expected to sign a long-term extension with Miami. The 26-year-old will make Miami's pass rush much better alongside Emmanuel Ogbah, Jaelan Phillips and Melvin Ingram. Back in Denver, their defense loses its best pass-rusher. Through eight weeks in 2022, Chubb has recorded 26 tackles (15 solo), four tackles for loss, eight QB hits, 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles.
		The Miami Dolphins acquired running back Jeff Wilson Jr. from the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday in exchange for a fifth-round draft pick in 2023, according to a source. The move comes shortly after the Dolphins sent running back Chase Edmonds and two draft picks to the Denver Broncos for edge rusher Bradley Chubb. Both Raheem Mostert and Wilson spent time with Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel in San Francisco. Wilson's fantasy value took a nosedive after the Niners acquired Christian McCaffrey, and although he'll likely be backing up Mostert in Miami, his rest-of-season outlook may have slightly improved. The 26-year-old had 92 carries for 468 yards (career-high 5.1 yards per carry) and two touchdowns on the ground, adding 10 catches for 91 yards through the air, in eight games in 2022. Wilson should slot in behind Mostert and ahead of Salvon Ahmed and Myles Gaskin in Miami.

		Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard (groin) is active for Week 8 against the Detroit Lions. He had been listed as questionable after closing out the week with limited participation in practice.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was removed from the final injury report on Friday and will be active in Week 8 against the Detroit Lions. Mostert practiced in full on Wednesday before putting in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. The 30-year-old has taken over lead-back duties from Chase Edmonds the last three weeks and has become a solid RB2 play for fantasy managers. He's played at least 62 percent of the offensive snaps each of the last four weeks and has totaled 63 rushing attempts for 310 yards (4.92 yards per carry) and a touchdown while catching eight of 13 targets for 50 yards and another score. Against a bad Lions defense this weekend, Mostert could have a second strong week for his fantasy managers.

		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed on Wednesday that safety Brandon Jones (knee) suffered a season-ending torn ACL in the Week 7 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. It's a significant blow for a young versatile playmaker who was having a strong season in his third year in the league. The 24-year-old was entering Week 8 tied for 17th in overall fantasy points among defensive backs in IDP leagues. Jones will end his season with 49 tackles (26 solo), two sacks, three passes defensed and one forced fumble in seven games played. Miami's secondary will be missing a big-time playmaker for the rest of the 2022 season. Eric Rowe will start at strong safety this weekend against the Detroit Lions.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited in Wednesday's practice. The second-year wide receiver has started out the week labeled as questionable, but there is a decent shot that he will be ready for Week 8. Waddle dealt with the same shoulder issue leading up to Miami's Week 7 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he continued to be a major factor in their offense. Keep an eye on Waddle's status as the week progresses, but this report shouldn't worry fantasy managers as of now.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) and running back Raheem Mostert (knee) were both listed as limited practice participants on Thursday. Waddle put in his second straight limited practice, but he doesn't appear to be in danger of missing Week 8 against the Detroit Lions. If active, Waddle has a pretty good shot at picking up his fourth 100-yard game of the 2022 campaign against the Lions' weak secondary. Mostert was limited after being a full-go on Wednesday, so his status needs to be monitored heading into the weekend. He has seen double-digit carries each of the last four weeks and has clearly taken over this backfield from Chase Edmonds, so if Mostert is active, he'll be a strong RB2 choice in Week 8.

		Miami Dolphins safety Brandon Jones (knee) suffered a knee injury on Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the fourth quarter and has been ruled out for the rest of the contest. Before leaving the game, the team's leader in tackles had seven tackles (two solo). For the rest of the game, expect Eric Rowe and Clayton Fejedelem to see more defensive snaps in Miami's secondary. The 24-year-old Jones came into the Week 7 game with 42 tackles (24 solo), two sacks, three passes defensed and one forced fumble in six games. It remains to be seen if Jones' injury is serious enough to keep out in Week 8 against the Detroit Lions. Fantasy managers in IDP leagues that have been using Jones as their starting defensive back will need to have backup options heading into next Sunday's game.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) will play on Sunday night versus Pittsburgh. The 30-year-old dealt with a knee issue during the week, forcing him to practice twice in a limited capacity. However, he logged a full session on Friday, so it appeared he was in line to play all along. The 30-year-old has 47 carries for 231 yards and a touchdown in the last three games, erasing all doubt about who's the No. 1 option out of the backfield. While the Steelers defense hasn't been horrible at stopping opposing fantasy backs in 2022-23, it's certainly not good enough to keep Mostert out of fantasy consideration.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's game versus the Steelers. Waddle was considered questionable heading into this one after practicing in a limited capacity throughout the week. The 23-year-old had a stellar Week 6 showing against the Vikings, finishing with six catches for 129 yards. With Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) back in the lineup, Waddle's ceiling is higher than it's been in quite some time.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited at practice on Friday, his third straight session with the designation. As a result, he's considered questionable heading into Week 7 against Pittsburgh. Had the wideout practiced in full, fantasy managers would have a reason to be optimistic. Waddle is coming off one of his best performances of the year, compiling six catches for 129 yards versus the Vikings in Week 6. With Miami losing its previous three games, the Fins will certainly do everything to get him out there on Sunday. But if Waddle can't go, Tyreek Hill, who leads the Dolphins in receiving this season, will likely get even more attention, while tight end Mike Gesicki, who is tied for a team-high three receiving touchdowns, would be a hit-or-miss fantasy option.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. He played through the knee issue during the Week 6 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The 30-year-old has taken over Chase Edmonds as the team's lead back and has logged at least 14 rushing attempts over the last three weeks. He has rushed for 309 yards on 71 attempts and a touchdown while catching eight passes for 64 yards over six games in 2022. The knee issue shouldn't keep the veteran from suiting up against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he has two more chances to log a full practice. Mostert is a borderline RB2 against the Steelers in Week 7.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) was limited again in practice on Thursday. There's nothing to suggest that Waddle will be in danger of missing the Week 7 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football. He's coming off his third 100-yard game of the season in the Week 6 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The 23-year-old second-year wideout already has 30 catches on 49 targets for 533 yards and three touchdowns in six games in 2022. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is returning from his concussion as well, so both Waddle and Tyreek Hill are must-starts in fantasy football starting lineups against a Pittsburgh defense that has given up a lot of yards so far this year.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was able to put in a full practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Mostert should be in line to serve as Miami's lead back once again this Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers ahead of Chase Edmonds, who has just three carries in the last two games. Meanwhile, Mostert has 32 carries in that two-week span for 162 yards and a touchdown while also catching two passes for eight yards. The Steelers defense has allowed the 12th-most half-point PPR fantasy points per game to opposing RBs through the first six weeks. Miami's offense should have a higher ceiling with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returning this week. Mostert is a low-end RB2 in fantasy.

		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said he doesn't expect to see much from wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) in practice on Wednesday, but McDaniel also said he's optimistic that Waddle will play on Sunday night in Week 7 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Waddle will likely be limited in Wednesday's practice session, but it's looking like Miami expects him to play this weekend. The 23-year-old second-year wideout had his third 100-yard game of the season in the Week 6 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, going for six catches (10 targets) and 129 yards. When healthy, he's a must-start in fantasy lineups, especially with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) set to return as the starter this week.

		The Miami Dolphins have named quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) as their starter in Week 7 against the Steelers. The report comes from head coach Mike McDaniel. The 24-year-old entered the concussion protocol in Week 4 during their game against the Bengals but has since been cleared. The team elected to stick with rookie Skylar Thompson (thumb) as the starter on Sunday, with Teddy Bridgewater as his backup. The expectation was that the Alabama product would return this week, which the team has now confirmed. Given the publicity and controversy surrounding the situation, it will be worth monitoring as the week progresses to ensure he does suit up. For now, fantasy managers can expect Tagovailoa to return to action, which bodes well for their elite receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) is officially active for Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. He had been listed as questionable but seemed confident that he would be able to play. Indeed, Mostert will suit up and serve as Miami's lead back on Sunday afternoon. His expanded role with the Dolphins puts him in the low-end RB2 conversation in fantasy football.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Skylar Thompson (right thumb) is questionable to return against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 6. Teddy Bridgewater has entered the game in his place. Although Tua Tagovailoa and Bridgewater both cleared concussion protocol, the Dolphins opted to start Thompson this week. He completed seven passes for 89 yards before exiting. It will be interesting to see whether Bridgewater remains in the game if Thompson is cleared to return.

Saturday, October 15

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) cleared protocol on Saturday morning and is expected to return in Week 7 against the Steelers. In the meantime, rookie Skylar Thompson will be under center versus the Minnesota Vikings, with Teddy Bridgewater to serve as his backup. The 2022 seventh-round pick finished with 166 yards and an interception during the Week 5 meeting with the Jets after Bridgewater (concussion) went down. That said, Thompson has low expectations for Sunday's game, so fantasy managers shouldn't look in his direction unless absolutely necessary.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) said his knee is fine and he will play in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. Mostert was held out of practice on Wednesday but was limited on Thursday, putting him on track to play this weekend. Although the Dolphins haven't come out and said Mostert is their clear lead back, they've utilized him that way each of the last two weeks -- he's out-carried backfield mate Chase Edmonds 33 to six. Although Edmonds is still a threat to vulture valuable goal-line carries, Mostert has become the best fantasy bet in this backfield as an RB2 choice for fantasy managers heading into Week 6 against the Vikes.
		Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill (foot, quadriceps) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) are without injury designations on Friday and will play in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. Hill was seen in a walking boot after last week's loss to the New York Jets, but his injury was never considered serious and that was confirmed when he practiced in full all week. Waddle was also a full participant all week, so both receivers should be at full strength for rookie quarterback Skylar Thompson's first career start. Thompson basically played the entire game last week when Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) left after the first snap of the game. Hill caught all seven of his targets for 47 yards, while Waddle had three catches for 23 yards. Temper expectations from both wideouts this weekend.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) was limited in practice on Thursday and Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. Mostert said on Thursday that he would play this weekend after seeing a season-high 18 carries for 113 yards and a touchdown in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets. Fantasy managers will want to check Mostert's status on Sunday morning, but if he's active as expected, he'll be firmly in play as an RB2 after out-carrying backfield mate Chase Edmonds 33 to six in the last two games.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (concussion, pectoral) is officially listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. Bridgewater progressed throughout the week from a DNP on Wednesday to limited on Thursday and a full-go on Friday. The 29-year-old signal-caller left after the first snap of last week's loss to the New York Jets and never returned due to the league's new concussion protocol. He's expected to clear the protocol before Sunday's game, but even if he's active, he'll serve as the backup to rookie Skylar Thompson against Minnesota. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) was ruled out earlier in the week, but he also practiced in full on Friday and has a good shot to return in Week 7 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) missed Wednesday's practice with a knee injury. Tight end Durham Smythe (hamstring) was also sidelined. Mostert played 69 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, handling a season-high 18 carries for 113 yards and a touchdown while adding one reception for a nine-yard gain. Meanwhile, Chase Edmonds saw just one touch and played a season-low 15 percent of the snaps. It's a bit of a surprise that Mostert is on the injury list, but if he's able to return to practice on Thursday, he should have a good chance of playing and leading Miami's backfield this Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. If Mostert is limited or out this weekend, Edmonds and Myles Gaskin would likely split touches in Week 6.
		Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill (foot) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) were both full participants in practice on Wednesday. Hill was seen in a walking boot on his injured foot after the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, but the injury wasn't deemed serious and he appears to be on track to suit up in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has already been ruled out, and Teddy Bridgewater (concussion, pectoral) is expected to back up rookie Skylar Thompson in his first career start this Sunday. Hill and Waddle are must-starts for fantasy managers when they are active, but you should expect a much lower ceiling and floor while taking passes from the inexperienced Thompson again this weekend.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (concussion, pectoral) wasn't able to take part in practice on Wednesday. Bridgewater remains in the league's concussion protocol, and if he gets cleared before Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings, he will serve as the backup to rookie Skylar Thompson in his first career start. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) returned to a limited practice Wednesday, but he's already been ruled out for Week 6. Bridgewater suffered a concussion on the first snap of the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets and never returned. In Thompson's first career NFL start, fantasy managers will need to downgrade all of Miami's offensive skill players.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) will be on the practice field on Thursday on a limited, non-contact basis, according to a source. It's another step in the concussion protocol for Bridgewater, but even if he clears the protocol and is active in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings, he'll serve as the backup to rookie Skylar Thompson, who will be making his first career NFL start after playing in his first game in last week's loss to the New York Jets when Bridgewater was injured on the first snap of the game. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has already been ruled out for Week 6.
		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Perhaps the Dolphins were just resting Mostert after he had a season-high 18 carries for 113 yards and a touchdown on the ground in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets. While the Dolphins refuse to label him as their lead back heading into Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings, Mostert has out-carried Chase Edmonds 33 to six in the last two weeks. Edmonds has more touchdowns so far this year, but Mostert has looked much more explosive with the ball in his hands. The Dolphins will continue to involve Edmonds, but Mostert has taken the lead at this point and will be in play as an RB2 against the Vikings.

		Despite suffering a left foot injury and being in a walking boot after the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets, the Miami Dolphins are optimistic that Pro Bowl wide receiver Tyreek Hill (foot) will be able to play in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings, according to a source. The bad news for Hill owners is that quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) and Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) look likely to miss this Sunday's game, so Hill will be taking passes from third-string rookie Skylar Thompson in his first career NFL start. Fantasy managers need to monitor Hill's practice status for this week, but for now it appears that he'll play. Hill caught all seven of his targets for 47 yards last week, and he hasn't scored since Week 2.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) will not play in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. McDaniel said the team is excited to have Tagovailoa back on the practice field on Wednesday. While fantasy managers still won't have Tagovailoa this weekend, it's good news that he's scheduled to throw this week while he progresses through the league's updated concussion protocol. With Teddy Bridgewater also dealing with a concussion, it's looking like rookie third-stringer Skylar Thompson will make his first NFL start this Sunday against the Vikings. As a result, fantasy managers should downgrade all of Miami's offensive skill players. It remains to be seen if Tagovailoa will have a shot at returning in Week 7 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) is in the NFL's concussion protocol after leaving the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets early, despite passing a locker room examination. A booth ATC spotter believed Bridgewater stumbled after he was hit on his first snap of the game on Sunday. It came as the league and Players Association changed the concussion protocols after a nearly two-week investigation into whether the protocol was followed properly with Tua Tagovailoa on Sept. 25. Bridgewater's injury forced rookie Skylar Thompson into the game, and he could make his first career start in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings if neither Tagovailoa nor Bridgewater are able to clear the concussion protocol.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) is not ready to do any football activities, according to head coach Mike McDaniels. The organization hasn't ruled out Tagovailoa for Week 6, but it doesn't sound too promising. Backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is in concussion protocol after leaving Sunday's game. It sounds like Bridgewater has a good chance of clearing the league's protocols in time for Week 6. However, fantasy managers are likely going to have to wait at least one more week to see Tagovailoa on a football field again.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (foot) was seen in a walking boot following their 40-17 loss to the Jets on Sunday. The 28-year-old was already dealing with a quadriceps injury entering the game, creating concerns about his availability moving forward. When asked on Monday about the severity of the injury, head coach Mike McDaniels stated "he looked pretty good today, but we'll take that day by day." The former Chief has been off to an excellent start with 38 receptions for 524 yards and two touchdowns over the first five weeks. The injury is expected to limit him in practice this week and could create a questionable tag entering Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins. Fantasy managers will need to monitor his status as the week progresses and hope he is able to suit up for Week 6.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quadriceps) is expected to suit up for Sunday's AFC East showdown with the New York Jets. The veteran didn't practice on Wednesday but managed to log limited sessions on Thursday and Friday, so it's undoubtedly good news for a team that will enter Week 5 without quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Instead, Hill will catch throws from Teddy Bridgewater, although that shouldn't stop fantasy managers from putting the wideout into their starting lineups against a hit-or-miss Jets defense.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) will play in Week 5 against the Jets, barring a setback, according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter. While there was a chance the wideout would miss this one after logging two-straight limited practices during the week, he didn't appear to be in any real danger of sitting out on Sunday. Tyreek Hill (quadriceps) is also forecasted to be in the lineup, so that's even better news. However, Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) won't play, forcing Waddle to catch throws from Teddy Bridgewater. But the veteran is a capable signal-caller, so Waddle should remain in all starting lineups.
		Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill (quadriceps) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) are both active in Week 5 against the New York Jets. Both Hill and Waddle came into this one as questionable, but there wasn't much doubt that they'd play. It's great news for the Dolphins offense, but they'll be taking passes from quarterback Teddy Bridgewater with Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back, concussion) ruled out on Sunday. Hill and Waddle are both must-starts in fantasy lineups, but they'll surely have lower ceilings and floors with Bridgewater running the show against the Jets in Week 5.
		Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard (groin) and running back Salvon Ahmed (back) are both officially inactive in Week 5 against the New York Jets. Howard was injured in last week's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, so the Dolphins secondary will be at less than full strength against the Jets on Sunday. With the 29-year-old sidelined, both Kader Kohou and Keion Crossen will battle for more playing time in the secondary. Ahmed has been active in just two games so far in 2022 and hasn't logged a single offensive snap. Myles Gaskin will serve as depth in Miami's backfield against New York behind Chase Edmonds and Raheem Mostert.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (elbow, head) has been taken to the locker room for further evaluation. He is officially listed as questionable to return versus the New York Jets. With Tua Tagovailoa (head) inactive and Bridgewater now sidelined, the Dolphins will turn to third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson, who excelled during the preseason. This latest development could lead to a more run-heavy approach for Miami, which bodes well for players like Raheem Mostert and Chase Edmonds.
		Miami Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead (toe) is questionable to return against the New York Jets in Week 5. The talented lineman initially exited the contest in the first quarter. Miami has been forced to play third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson in the wake of injuries to Teddy Bridgewater (elbow, head) and Tua Tagovailoa (head), so the last that Miami wanted was to lose a key pass protector.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (elbow, concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 5 versus the New York Jets. With Tua Tagovailoa (head) and Bridgewater both sidelined, the Dolphins will rely on third-string quarterback Skylar Thompson. Anticipate a decrease in production from Miami's pass catchers.
		Miami Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead (toe) has been ruled out for the remainder of Week 5 against the New York Jets. The talented lineman initially exited the contest in the first quarter and won't return. Skylar Thompson, Miami's third-string quarterback, was thrust into action Sunday and will be without one of his top pass protectors for the remainder of this divisional clash.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (foot) was seen wearing a walking boot after the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets. Despite the ailment, the speedster still finished with a game-high seven catches to total 47 yards. Hill, who was riding a questionable tag heading into Sunday because of a quadriceps injury, is now dealing with another issue. While the ailment isn't considered serious, the team may take a cautious approach and keep him out for the Week 6 clash with the Minnesota Vikings.

		Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill (quadriceps) and Jaylen Waddle (groin) are both listed as questionable to play in Week 5 against the New York Jets. NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe reports that head coach Mike McDaniel is very hopeful that Hill will play on Sunday. The Dolphins will manage Hill's quad injury after he popped up on the injury report on Thursday. Fantasy managers will know early on Sunday whether Hill and Waddle are playing, but both appear to be on the right side of questionable. They'll be taking passes from Teddy Bridgewater on Sunday if they're active, which will lower their fantasy ceiling. If one or both of Hill and Waddle are inactive or limited, Cedrick Wilson Jr., River Cracraft and rookie Erik Ezukanma would have expanded roles.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) was back at practice on Thursday after being held out of the team's Wednesday session. This bodes well for his availability in Week 5 against the Jets, but fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status at Friday's practice. With Tua Tagovailoa (head, neck) ruled out, Waddle's outlook isn't as encouraging with Teddy Bridgewater under center. We saw him gravitate towards Tyreek Hill when he entered in Week 4, so the sophomore figures to be more of a low-end WR2 this week.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quad) was limited during Thursday's practice. This appears to be a new injury because he was able to fully practice on Wednesday. It sounds like Hill was fine after Thursday's limited session, but fantasy managers should still be aware of this. Possibly, the Dolphins were just being cautious and trying to give Hill some extra rest. He should be a fine WR1, assuming he does suit up against the New York Jets in Week 5.

		Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard (groin) is day-to-day with a groin injury that he suffered in last week's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. "He will do everything in his power to play against the Jets," head coach Mike McDaniel said on Wednesday. Meanwhile, cornerback Byron Jones (ankle) isn't ready to begin the 21-day process of returning from the Physically Unable to Perform list. If Howard doesn't make anymore progress this week and can't play on Sunday, the Dolphins secondary will be short-handed for a matchup against the New York Jets.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) didn't take part in Wednesday's practice. After back-to-back 100-yard games with two touchdowns in Weeks 2 and 3, Waddle disappointed in last Thursday night's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals when he caught two of five targets for a season-low 39 yards. The 23-year-old second-year wideout has two more days to get back on the practice field, but his fantasy ceiling and floor will be lowered with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head, neck) already ruled out for Week 5 against the New York Jets. If Waddle is active, he'll be a more shaky WR2 for fantasy managers with Teddy Bridgewater running the offense. If he sits, River Cracraft will have a bigger role opposite Tyreek Hill.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has already been ruled out for Week 5 against the New York Jets. However, there's no clear timetable on how long he could be out moving forward. Veteran Teddy Bridgewater will start in his place as long as he's out and is a decent streaming option in one of the league's best passing attacks. Bridgewater has never been a fantasy superstar, but Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill are elite weapons at wide receiver, so his ceiling is as high as it's ever been. The Jets present a favorable matchup for quarterbacks, so Bridgewater can be started for fantasy managers in a tough spot at QB.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head, neck) remains in concussion protocol. However, per NFL insider Ian Rapoport, all of his latest tests "came back clean." Tagovailoa has been taking a beating over the last few weeks, and he was recently carted off the field on a backboard during the Thursday night loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. With that said, even though the Dolphins have some time to rest before the Week 5 divisional matchup against the New York Jets, fantasy managers may not see the signal-caller in uniform. In any event, as long as the 24-year-old is on the shelf, Teddy Bridgewater will be under center.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head, neck) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with head and neck injuries. The 24-year-old stayed down after being slammed to the ground on a sack during the second quarter. He was stretchered off the field and won't return Thursday. Tua completed eight of 14 passes for 110 yards and one interception before exiting. Tagovailoa is being taken to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center for further evaluation. The Dolphins reported that he is conscious and has movement in all his extremities. Teddy Bridgewater replaced Tagovailoa in Thursday's game. Stay tuned for further updates.
		Miami Dolphins cornerback Xavien Howard (groin) suffered a groin injury in Thursday's Week 4 game against the Cincinnati Bengals and is questionable to return. Before leaving the contest, Howard had two tackles (one solo). Miami's aggressive defense has done a pretty good job of containing Cincinnati's explosive passing attack through three quarters on Thursday night, but potentially losing Howard for the rest of the contest could make things difficult for Miami's secondary to close out the game. The 29-year-old was on the weekly injury report with a groin injury leading up to Thursday's game, so he obviously aggravated the injury in this one.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (neck, head) is expected to be discharged from the hospital on Thursday night. The 24-year-old was stretchered off the field after a scary play during Thursday's contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was taken to a nearby hospital to be further evaluated. The NFLPA is currently investigating the handling of Tagovailoa during last week's contest when the young quarterback when down with a possible concussion. It sounds like Tagovailoa could play in Week 5, but he has a long road ahead of him to get cleared for that contest. In the meantime, Teddy Bridgewater is expected to remain the quarterback until further notice.
		Initial Scans returned negative for Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head, neck), and he is scheduled for an MRI on Friday. According to Josina Anderson of CBS Sports, Tua traveled back with the team in a neck brace, and all initial scans were negative; nothing was broken. The 24-year-old stayed down after being slammed to the ground on a sack during the second quarter. He was stretchered off the field and ruled out the rest of Thursday's game against the Bengals. Tagovailoa suffered a concussion and nothing "more serious," per Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel. Tagovailoa's health is the team's top priority, and it is unclear how much time the former first-round pick will miss. Teddy Bridgewater will start in Week 5 against the New York Jets if Tua isn't medically cleared. Stay tuned for more updates.
		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said he hasn't thought about a timetable for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's (head, neck) return to football after he suffered a scary concussion in Thursday night's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Tagovailoa underwent an MRI exam as an extra precaution on Friday after being discharged from the hospital Thursday night. "When it comes to head injuries and concussions, things that severe, the only thing I'm worried about is the person first," McDaniel said. Even with extra time to recover before a Week 5 game on Oct. 9 against the New York Jets, it seems unlikely that the 24-year-old would play. For however many games he's forced to miss, Teddy Bridgewater will lead Miami's offense.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back) is expected to play in Thursday night's matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was a limited participant in practice the last two days and will suit up for Thursday Night Football. Tagovailoa should have all his weapons available on Thursday, as star wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) is also expected to play. The 24-year-old has been incredible this season, throwing for 925 yards and an 8:2 touchdown-to-interception ratio over three games. He is a borderline QB1 against a Bengals defense that is ninth in pass DVOA this season.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) should be good to go for Thursday Night Football against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 23-year-old was limited at practice the last two days but will suit up Thursday against the Bengals. He has hauled in 15 receptions on 25 targets for 273 yards and three touchdowns over three games. The former first-round pick owns a whopping 31% of the team's target share, sixth among all wide receivers. Waddle is a must-start in Week 4 and will have a plus matchup against a Bengals defense that is 22nd in DVOA against WR2s.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (back, ankle) is active and will start against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. There was some concern about Tagovailoa after he was limited during each of the last two practices. Despite that, Tagovailoa will be active and have Jaylen Waddle (groin) alongside him. The 24-year-old has been surprisingly sharp under center this season. However, fantasy managers shouldn't get too carried away on the Tua Train. He'll be a borderline QB1 for this Week 4 matchup.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (ribs, toe) is inactive for the Thursday night matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The 26-year-old has two receptions for 20 yards through the first three games. It doesn't sound like he was going to make much of an impact anyway. The expectation is that Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle (groin) will get a majority of the targets. It's tough to trust any other wideouts on this roster outside of them.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) will suit up for the Week 4 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. This shouldn't come as a surprise because it seemed like Waddle was going to play all along. Fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned about this groin issue holding him back. He should be considered a low-end WR1 for this upcoming Thursday night matchup.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back) is officially listed as questionable to play on Thursday night against the Cincinnati Bengals. He was listed as a DNP in Monday's estimated practice but has been limited the last two days. Despite getting pretty banged up in the Week 3 win over the Buffalo Bills, Tagovailoa plans to play in Week 4 on a short week. Fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting him to throw for six touchdowns again like he did in Week 2, but Tagovailoa should have all of his weapons available to him this week and should be viewed as a low-end QB1 for fantasy managers. Just make sure to check back before Thursday's game for confirmation that he's officially active.
		Miami Dolphins wide receivers Jaylen Waddle (groin) and Cedrick Wilson Jr. (ribs, toe) are both listed as questionable to play on Thursday night against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 4. Waddle was listed as a DNP on Monday's estimated practice report before being limited the last two days. Wilson has been listed as limited all week. Fantasy managers will need to check back before Thursday's contest, but as long as Waddle is active, he's a must-start in fantasy lineups. He has three touchdowns through three weeks and has racked up 15 receptions on 25 targets for 273 yards and one TD in the last two games. If one or both of Waddle and Wilson were to sit out, Tyreek Hill would be heavily targeted, while rookie Erik Ezukanma and Trent Sherfield would have bigger roles in the passing attack.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back) could be held out of action in Week 4 against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night. According to head coach Mike McDaniel, Tagovailoa would be limited in practice and questionable for the game if it were a normal week. The third-year signal-caller "will do everything he can" to play, but the Dolphins seem confident in backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater if he isn't able to suit up. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle figure to get a bit of a downgrade, but both will remain must-start options in what could be a high-scoring affair. Bridgewater would be nothing more than a low-end QB2 if he is to start on Thursday.

		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (back) briefly exited Sunday's Week 3 matchup after a quarterback sneak. The quarterback was stumbling around, which is a sign of a possible concussion. The NFLPA is looking further into the matter considering Tagovailoa returned to the field minutes after sustaining the injury. Tagovailoa mentioned that he believes he hyperextended his back during the game. Regardless, the Dolphins have a short week, so fantasy managers will have to monitor his status closely.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back) has been a hot topic of discussion after he was seen getting up wobbly from a hit against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, and Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said he's also dealing with a sore ankle and back. Since Miami has a quick turnaround against the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday Night Football, this is worth monitoring. McDaniel said he can't say for sure if Tagovailoa will play, so this could be a close call up to kickoff. If Tagovailoa is active, he's at risk for a bust performance, but his upside remains high in what could be a high-scoring affair with a ton of offensive talent on each side.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle, back) is not in the league's concussion protocol on Monday, according to head coach Mike McDaniel, although he was listed as DNP at practice Monday. The NFL is reviewing their concussion protocol after Tagovailoa was allowed back in the Week 3 win over the Buffalo Bills after appearing extremely wobbly on the field. The 24-year-old is reportedly dealing with a sore ankle and back following the divisional clash, and his status could be in question with a quick turnaround on Thursday night this week against the Cincinnati Bengals. A week after throwing for six touchdowns, Tagovailoa came back to Earth, throwing for under 200 yards and just one score on Sunday. He should be considered questionable to play against the Bengals this week, for now. If he can't go, the Dolphins would turn to backup Teddy Bridgewater.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (groin) was listed with a groin injury on the practice report and didn't practice. The Dolphins didn't actually practice on Monday, though, so the DNP was just an estimation on the short week. Miami plays the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday night in Week 3. Waddle played 74 percent of the offensive snaps in the Week 3 win over the Buffalo Bills and caught four of six targets for 102 yards, his second straight week with 100-plus yards. The 23-year-old second-year pass-catcher's injury doesn't seem too severe, but we'll need to keep a close eye on him as Thursday approaches. If he cannot play or is limited, Cedrick Wilson Jr. (ribs, toe), who was listed as limited on Monday, would have a bigger role next to Tyreek Hill.

		Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer (foot) is officially inactive for the Week 3 game against the Miami Dolphins. Fellow safety Micah Hyde (neck) is also out for the rest of the 2022 season, so Buffalo's secondary will be extremely short-handed on Sunday against a Dolphins team that put up 40-plus points in their come-from-behind win over the Ravens last week. The Bills defense is still a strong fantasy unit, but the loss of Hyde and Poyer for this one is concerning. They'll be starting safeties Damar Hamlin and Jaquan Johnson. Rookies Kaiir Elam and Christian Benford will start at cornerback. The group has made three combined starts in the NFL entering Sunday's game.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (ribs, toe) is officially active for Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills after he was initially listed as questionable to play. Running back Myles Gaskin will be a healthy scratch for the second straight week. Wilson will continue to serve as the team's distant No. 3 receiver behind studs Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, who both went off in last week's win over the Baltimore Ravens. The 26-year-old has just two catches on three targets for 20 yards through his first two games in Miami, so he should remain on the waiver wire in most leagues. Miami is facing a beat up Buffalo secondary this Sunday, but Wilson is likely to remain off the fantasy radar.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head) is questionable to return against the Buffalo Bills in Week 3. He suffered a concerning injury and looked woozy as he required assistance getting to the sideline. The 24-year-old was subsequently taken to the locker room, presumably to be evaluated for a concussion. He had put together a solid performance before exiting, completing eight of 10 passes for 76 yards and one touchdown. Teddy Bridgewater will take over at quarterback for the duration of Tagovailoa's absence.
		Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (head) has returned to Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills. He suffered a scary head injury in the first half but was evaluated for a concussion and subsequently cleared to return. The 24-year-old will look to build on a solid stat line that consisted of eight completions, 76 yards, and one touchdown in the first half.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (ribs) is likely to be a game-time decision in Week 3 against the Buffalo Bills. "Ced wants to play. We want him to play," head coach Mike McDaniel said. "We will take that up until game time." The good news is that Wilson will get some work in at Friday's practice, giving him a chance to suit up for the big divisional clash. He's been a distant No. 3 receiver behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle through the first two weeks, catching only two passes on three targets for 20 yards. If the 26-year-old isn't given the green light to play this weekend, Trent Sherfield and Erik Ezukanma will battle for targets as the No. 3 Dolphins wideout.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (ribs) was seen wearing a red non-contact jersey at Wednesday's practice. The former Cowboy exited Miami's Week 2 win against the Baltimore Ravens early after a rib injury. Wilson practicing early on is a good sign, but there is still a chance that he fails to suit up. With Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle seeing a large majority of the Dolphins' receiving work, Wilson's possible absence shouldn't be impactful for any fantasy football league.

		Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin is inactive for the Week 2 contest against the Baltimore Ravens, while left tackle Terron Armstead (toe) is active after being listed as questionable on Friday. Gaskin didn't log a single offensive snap in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots and is now a healthy scratch in Week 2. The Dolphins will roll with Chase Edmonds, Raheem Mostert and Salvon Ahmed as their three RBs this weekend. Armstead's availability is huge for Miami's offensive line after they placed right tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) on Injured Reserve this week. Still, Miami's O-line will have their hands full with Baltimore's defense on Sunday.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is dealing with cramps and is questionable to return against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2. He turned eight targets into six catches and 48 yards before exiting. With Miami trailing Baltimore by several scores late in the game, it seems unlikely that Hill returns to the contest. Jaylen Waddle, Mike Gesicki, and Cedrick Wilson Jr. will handle the bulk of pass-catching work in Hill's absence.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (cramps) has returned to Sunday's game. After initially being listed as questionable, the speedster is back in the contest as Miami looks to finish off an enormous comeback against the Baltimore Ravens. Hill's return gives a big boost to a flashy Dolphins offense.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against Baltimore. Wilson didn't practice on Wednesday but logged limited sessions on Thursday and Friday. The toe issue doesn't appear serious, so there's a good chance he'll be in uniform in Week 2. However, with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle the primary targets for Tua Tagovailoa, Wilson's fantasy upside is severely restricted if he plays.

		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that right tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) will be placed on short-term Injured Reserve. Jackson was injured in the Week 1 win over the New England Patriots and will now have to miss at least the next four games. The former first-rounder's injury initially wasn't believed to be all that serious, but that's not the case now. With the 23-year-old out of action for at least the next four contests, the Dolphins will likely ask Greg Little to fill in as the starter at right tackle, beginning in a tough Week 2 matchup with the Baltimore Ravens defense.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Cedrick Wilson Jr. (toe) didn't practice Wednesday. The former Dallas Cowboy was a new addition to the Dolphins' injury report and is now questionable for their Week 2 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Operating behind both Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, not much is expected of Wilson statistically. But the fifth-year pro is a solid No. 3 wideout for Miami and would be missed as a reliable separator if he's unable to suit up on Sunday. That being said, Wilson's potential absence should only be impactful for very deep leagues.
		Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (heel) didn't practice on Wednesday. He was a limited last week with a heel injury and was inactive for Week 1 against the New England Patriots. The 23-year-old is trending in the wrong direction and could miss his second consecutive game. He is buried on the running back depth chart behind Chase Edmonds, Raheem Mostert, and Myles Gaskin. Fantasy managers can leave Ahmed on the waiver wire for now.

		Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel isn't committing to left tackle Terron Armstead or right tackle Austin Jackson (ankle) playing in the Week 2 contest against the Baltimore Ravens after they both suffered injuries in the season-opening win over the New England Patriots. It's unknown what Armstead is dealing with, but he's played through multiple injuries in his career. It would be bad news for Miami's entire offense if they are without both of their starting tackles this Sunday against a tough Ravens defense. Baltimore's D held the New York Jets offense in check in Week 1, although they were also facing quarterback Joe Flacco.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (heel) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable to play in the Week 1 regular season opener against the New England Patriots on Sunday. Ahmed is currently fourth on the team's running back depth chart behind Chase Edmonds, Raheem Mostert and Myles Gaskin, so he's already well off the fantasy radar to open the 2022 season. In his two seasons with the Dolphins, the 23-year-old has 129 carries for 468 yards (3.6 yards per carry) and three touchdowns, adding 23 receptions on 33 targets for 178 receiving yards in 18 games (four starts). It will likely take multiple injuries ahead of him on the RB depth chart for Ahmed to be a candidate for a waiver-wire pickup.

		Miami Dolphins running back Chase Edmonds (groin) was upgraded to a full practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday. Fellow back Myles Gaskin (neck) also put in a full practice. The Dolphins have plenty of capable backs behind Edmonds, but the 26-year-old is expected to operate as the team's lead back entering Week 1 of the regular season against the New England Patriots. With that said, Raheem Mostert could steal valuable goal-line touches away from Edmonds this year, limited his overall fantasy ceiling. Edmonds is the best fantasy bet in this backfield on a weekly basis, though, and fantasy managers should consider him a low-end RB2/high-end RB3 play this weekend.
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (quadriceps) and running back Chase Edmonds (groin) were both removed from the Week 1 injury report on Friday and are good to go for Week 1 against the division-rival New England Patriots. While Waddle won't see as many targets in his second NFL season with All-Pro Tyreek Hill now in the fold, he'll still remain a big part of Miami's passing attack and should be a must-start as a WR2 to kick off the 2022 regular season. Edmonds may have to fend off Raheem Mostert and Myles Gaskin throughout the season, but he enters Week 1 as the clear leader of this backfield. He's a low-end RB2 play for fantasy managers against New England.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (quadriceps), who was limited in practice on Wednesday, is expected to play on Sunday in the Week 1 regular season opener against the New England Patriots. Waddle was seen warming up for practice with the team on Thursday as well. The 23-year-old second-year pass-catcher didn't have a sleeve on his injured leg on Wednesday either, another good sign that he'll be available to fantasy managers as at least a low-end WR2 this weekend. Tyreek Hill's presence in the offense will mean fewer targets for Waddle in his second NFL season, but he should still see plenty of looks in the short and intermediate areas of the field from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

TEAM	PLAYER	TRANSACTION
		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) was back at practice on Wednesday and wasn't wearing a leg sleeve. Head coach Mike McDaniel called Waddle limited. Waddle is dealing with an undisclosed lower leg injury heading into Week 1's matchup against the New England Patriots on Sunday. Barring a setback in practice later this week, the 23-year-old second-year pass-catcher should be good to go this weekend. Some folks have been down on Waddle's 2022 fantasy ceiling with All-Pro receiver Tyreek Hill in town, but Waddle should continue to see plenty of targets from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. In Week 1, Waddle should be considered a low-end WR2 with upside against a strong Patriots secondary.
		Miami Dolphins running back Chase Edmonds (groin) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday on the team's first injury report of the 2022 regular season. Myles Gaskin (neck) and Salvon Ahmed (heel) were also limited Wednesday. The Dolphins are likely just managing a minor groin issue for Edmonds, so barring any setbacks later this week, he should serve as the team's primary back for a Week 1 matchup against the New England Patriots. The presence of Raheem Mostert as a potential touchdown vulture will keep Edmonds' fantasy ceiling capped in his first year in Miami, but he's clearly the team's most intriguing fantasy back and should be deployed as a low-end RB2/high-end RB3 in the regular season opener.

		The Miami Dolphins have signed wide receiver Freddie Swain to their practice squad. The 24-year-old struggled during training camp and was cut by the Seattle Seahawks. However, he showed flashes last season with 25 receptions and four touchdowns as a member of the Seahawks. Obviously, Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are going to be the focal point in the receiving game for Miami. Possibly, Swain works his way into the mix as a depth option, but he won't be on the fantasy radar to start the season.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (lower body) will be ready for Week 1, according to head coach Mike McDaniels. The 23-year-old hasn't been practicing for several weeks now. However, the Dolphins have mentioned that his absence is precautionary. It's hard to believe that Waddle has been held out of practice for multiple weeks as a precaution. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried, but probably won't get a better update until the official injury report is released next week.

		The Miami Dolphins placed starting cornerback Byron Jones (ankle) on the Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform list on Tuesday, so he will miss at least the first four games of the season. Jones had surgery on his ankle in March and was hoping to be ready for Week 1 of the regular season, but that won't happen. The 29-year-old will immediately return to a starting role in Miami's secondary when he's cleared to return, but the secondary will be a bit more vulnerable until then. Jones made the Pro Bowl in 2018 with the Dallas Cowboys, and he recorded 58 tackles (47 solo), 10 passes defensed and a forced fumble in 16 starts for Miami in 2021.
		The Miami Dolphins released wide receiver Lynn Bowden Jr. on Tuesday, according to a source. Bowden has plenty of versatility as a running back, slot receiver and kick returner, but the Dolphins just didn't have room for him after adding Tyreek Hill and Cedrick Wilson Jr. in the offseason. The 24-year-old will surely latch on with another organization as a special teams asset, at the very least. The former third-rounder in 2020 didn't see the field at all last season, but he caught 28 of 37 targets for 211 yards and no touchdowns in 10 games (four starts) for the Dolphins in his rookie season after being acquired from the Las Vegas Raiders.
		The Miami Dolphins cut wide receiver Preston Williams on Tuesday, according to a source. Williams complained his lack of a role earlier this summer, but he was never realistically going to see much playing time after Miami added wideouts Tyreek Hill and Cedrick Wilson Jr. in the offseason. Multiple teams reached out over the last few weeks about a possible trade for Williams, but now they'll be able to pick him up for free on the open market. The 25-year-old caught 56 of 111 targets for 787 yards and seven touchdowns in his three seasons with the Dolphins, but he had trouble staying on the field, playing in only 24 games (17 starts) over a three-year span.

		The Miami Dolphins officially signed former New England Patriots and Detroit Lions linebacker Trey Flowers to an undisclosed deal on Monday. Flowers failed his physical in March and was released by the Lions after playing in 14 total games due to injuries in the last two years. Originally a fourth-round selection by the Patriots in 2015 out of the University of Arkansas, Flowers has 261 tackles (160 solo), 31.5 sacks, 37 tackles for loss, 86 QB hits, seven passes defensed, 10 forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries in 75 career games (64 starts) over seven NFL seasons. The 29-year-old veteran will provide valuable depth for the Dolphins defense in 2022.
		The Miami Dolphins released running back Sony Michel on Monday. Michel didn't impress the coaching staff enough in training camp and the preseason to make the cut in a crowded backfield that also includes Chase Edmonds, Raheem Mostert, Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed. The 27-year-old former first-round pick by the New England Patriots in 2018 filled in nicely for the Rams in 2021 due to injuries to Cam Akers and Darrell Henderson Jr. In 17 regular season games (seven starts), Michel had 208 carries for 845 yards and four touchdowns, adding 21 catches for 128 yards and another score. He doesn't have much pass-catching chops, but Michel could easily latch on with another organization as RB depth before the start of the regular season. For now, he's off the fantasy radar in redraft leagues.

		Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee) logged two carries for 29 yards during Saturday's preseason finale against the Philadelphia Eagles. The game was Mostert's first of the preseason, as well as his first since joining the Dolphins. Both of his touches came in the first quarter. He picked up three yards on a rush to the right on the opening drive, then broke off a 26-yard gain on the second drive. Mostert will make the Dolphins' roster and could have some RB3 or FLEX appeal as long as he stays healthy.
		Free-agent linebacker Trey Flowers is joining the Dolphins. He began his career with the Patriots, helping the franchise secure multiple Super Bowl victories. He then signed with the Lions in 2019, where he played his last three seasons before the team released him during the offseason. While the veteran's production and availability have decreased substantially over his previous few years in Detroit, he has plenty of upside. Flowers isn't worth much for IDP managers at the moment. However, he's someone to watch throughout the 2022-23 campaign and could prove helpful on the fantasy end if he can carve out a consistent role and stay healthy.

The team reported that several players are sick and were vomiting overnight.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) has had the biggest jump within the offensive scheme from organized team activities to training camp, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. However, Waddle has also missed most of the last two weeks with what McDaniel said was being cautious after Waddle came in tight. The Dolphins haven't been worried about the 23-year-old's availability for the start of the regular season, but it's certainly worth monitoring. Waddle was impressive in 2021 with 104 catches for 1,015 yards and six touchdowns in 16 games, but the addition of Tyreek Hill will take valuable targets away. Still, the second-year pass-catcher should be seen as a strong WR2 entering his second NFL season.

		Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) was held out of practice this week with an unspecified injury. The 23-year-old was listed as day-to-day, prompting the Dolphins to keep him out of the preseason game against the Raiders. The team reported it as a precaution. However, not knowing the injury or timeline for his return is mildly concerning. The sophomore receiver is integral to Miami's offense, so easing him back to practice makes sense. Assuming he returns to participating in individual drills soon, there is no reason to fade him in your draft or avoid targeting him. Waddle set the rookie record for receptions and could be a top-24 receiver in 2022, especially if Tua Tagovailoa progresses from last year.
