Darren Waller
TE - Miami Dolphins
Availability
Darren Waller caught 3-of-5 targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.
Fantasy Impact
Waller came into the week coming off of a two-touchdown performance in Week 15, but he wasn't able to have a worthy encore performance against the Bengals, finishing with just 40 scoreless yards in a loss. He should not be trusted to start in the championship game next week in most leagues.
Darren Waller (rest/knee) was a limited participant on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
The veteran was limited at another practice on Thursday. The team is intentionally limiting his workload right now, partially because he is managing a minor knee injury. He should be available to play in Week 16 and will be looking to have a worthy encore to his two-touchdown performance from last week.
Darren Waller served as the focal point of the Miami passing attack during Monday night's loss to Pittsburgh, catching seven of his eight targets for 66 yards and two touchdowns. The veteran tight end led the team in both receptions and targets, delivering the bulk of his production in the fourth quarter with scoring grabs of six and 13 yards.
Fantasy Impact
The multi-score performance highlights Waller's significant red-zone equity when active; he has now tallied six touchdowns in just seven games this season. He will look to continue his efficient run in a favorable Week 16 matchup against the Bengals.
Darren Waller caught one of his three targets for 13 yards while also rushing once for four yards in the Dolphins' 34-10 win over the Jets in Week 14.
Fantasy Impact
Waller has seen minimal involvement in the Miami offense since returning from injury, logging less than four targets in each of his last two games. The dynamic tight end will look for more productive success in a difficult Week 15 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Darren Waller (rest) was limited at practice on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
The Dolphins limited Waller's workload on Wednesday, as they don't want to overdo it for the veteran at this point in the season. He should be good to go for Week 14 and will likely continue to be one of the more involved receivers for Miami.
