Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller will not play in Week 1 due to a hip injury. This is a setback for the Dolphins as Waller, returning from retirement, was expected to be a key target in the passing game. Fantasy managers who added Waller to their rosters will need to explore alternative options for the opener.
With Waller sidelined, other Dolphins pass-catchers like Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle may see an increased role in the offense. Fantasy owners should monitor any updates on Dolphins’ tight end usage to adjust their lineups accordingly.
