Jaylen Waddle Ruled Out For Week 17

Jaylen Waddle Ruled Out For Week 17

11 months ago

The Miami Dolphins have ruled out wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (ankle) from the Week 17 game on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. Waddle suffered a high right-ankle sprain in the Week 16 win over the Dallas Cowboys and was trending toward missing this weekend's game all along. The 25-year-old's ankle sprain is believed to be on the less serious side, but it's an injury that could also keep him out for the Week 18 regular season finale against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. With Waddle officially out this Sunday, expect Tyreek Hill to be peppered with targets, while Cedrick Wilson Jr. and Braxton Berrios should also see more opportunities to catch passes against a tough defense on the road. Rookie running back De'Von Achane (toe) could be busy in the short passing attack. Make sure you move Waddle to your bench for Week 17.
