Jaylen Waddle Expected Back At Practice Wednesday
one year ago
Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said on Monday that wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (back) is expected to practice on Wednesday. Waddle injured his back in the Sunday night loss to the Philadelphia Phillies and gingerly walked back to the locker room before using a heating pad and eventually returning to finish out the 31-17 loss on the road. The 24-year-old wideout finished Week 7 with six catches on six targets for 63 yards. It didn't look good at the time, but Waddle's injury apparently isn't serious and shouldn't put his availability for Week 8 against the New England Patriots in jeopardy. Waddle has mostly been overshadowed by teammate Tyreek Hill in the stat department on a weekly basis this year, but he continues to have high-end WR2 upside in this prolific passing offense.
