Fantasy
Jaylen Waddle recorded two receptions for 39 yards on five goals in Thursday’s 27-15 loss to the Bengals. Waddle saw nine fewer goals than Tyreek Hill in losses. In addition, Trent Sherfield clocked six goals, which can be attributed to Teddy Bridgewater entering the game in the second quarter. Unfortunately, Tua Tagovailoa was ruled out of the game with a head/neck injury and it is unclear when he will play. Prepare to Waddle receiving a pass from Teddy Bridgewater, at least for the foreseeable future. Weddell will face the Jets in Week 5 in New York. Like Hill, Waddell can make plays out of nothing, so expect a bounce-back performance regardless of the starting quarterback.
