Jaylen Waddle Week 17 Outlook - Buccaneers at Dolphins

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sat, Dec 27th 2025, 9:35am EST

Since Week 5, Jaylen Waddle has been the WR20 in fantasy points per game with a 24.2% target share, 65.9 receiving yards per game, 2.77 yards per route run, and a 32.2% first-read share. In those 11 games, Waddle has had six red zone targets and 13 deep targets. He's been outstanding on a per-route basis. The problem with the Miami offense these days is its run-centric nature, which caps Waddle's volume weekly. Waddle is a strong WR2 this week with WR1 upside if Quinn Ewers can have another solid performance. Since Week 10, Tampa Bay has allowed the tenth-most PPR points per target and the tenth-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers.
