Jaylen Waddle

Dolphins declared Jaylen Waddle (knee) inactive for Week 17 against the Browns.

Waddle managed just two limited practice sessions this week, leading to varying reports about the No. 2 wide receiver’s availability. This is a must-win game for the 7-8 Dolphins so the fact that the team opted to keep him on the sidelines suggests Waddle is in the thick of a rigorous rehab program. Malik Washington could see an extra target or two with Waddle sidelined but it would be unsurprising to see Mike McDaniel feed his proven pass catchers around the line of scrimmage, with backup QB Tyler Huntley under center.
