Former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) agreed to a one-year, $2 million deal with the Houston Texans on Monday, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The deal was negotiated by agents Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey. Berrios heads to the AFC South division after suffering a torn left ACL in Week 7 of last year. When the 29-year-old pass-catcher is back to full health, he figures to give the Texans additional receiver depth behind Nico Collins and Christian Kirk (collarbone) with Tank Dell (knee) potentially missing all of the 2025 season. At best, though, Berrios will likely be limited in his playing time as a role player on offense while mostly contributing as a kick returner on special teams. The former sixth-round pick by the New England Patriots in 2018 out of the University of Miami had his best season in 2021 with the Jets, catching 46 of 65 passes for 431 yards and two touchdowns in 16 games (one start).

The Miami Dolphins placed wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) on Injured Reserve on Monday, which means he'll have to miss at least the next four games. Berrios will go on IR after injuring his knee in the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The earliest that the 29-year-old can return would be for a Week 12 matchup against the division-rival New England Patriots. Berrios wasn't on the fantasy radar to begin with, as he was unable to haul in any of the four targets he saw in six games played this year. The Dolphins will move forward with Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Odell Beckham Jr. and Malik Washington as their four receivers. With quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) potentially returning in Week 8 against the Arizona Cardinals, the fantasy value of both Hill and Waddle is about to get a shot in the arm.

Free-agent wide receiver Braxton Berrios re-signed with the Miami Dolphins on Saturday on a one-year deal worth up to $3 million, according to his agents, Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey. Berrios will return to Miami to provide receiving depth behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Erik Ezukanma in 2024. The 28-year-old former sixth-round selection of the New England Patriots in 2018 out of Miami of Florida caught 27 of his 33 targets for 238 yards and one touchdown in 16 regular-season games (one start) last year in his first year with the Dolphins. Berrios isn't on the fantasy radar unless your league counts points for return yards, as he's likely to be Miami's primary kick returner again in 2024. In five NFL seasons, Berrios has 134 receptions for 1,323 yards and only six touchdowns in 81 games (six starts).

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios caught his only target for 12 yards in the Week 15 blowout win over the New York Jets. Despite Tyreek Hill (ankle) being inactive, Jaylen Waddle was the only Dolphins' wideout to catch more than two passes. Chase Claypool, Cedrick Wilson Jr., and Berrios combined to catch just five passes for 22 yards on 26 Dolphins passing plays. This is evidence that all three players can be avoided in fantasy football if Hill can't suit up in Week 16 against the Dallas Cowboys.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (hamstring) was a full participant in practice this week and has been removed from the injury report heading into Friday's game against the New York Jets. He will play in Week 12. Berrios hasn't been active since Week 9 when he logged 27 percent of snaps and finished without a catch. The 28-year-old has 20 receptions for 194 yards and one touchdown through nine games this season, keeping him off the fantasy radar for the time being.
Nov 23, 2023 1:39 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Week 11 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Berrios opened up the week with a DNP but logged limited practice sessions on both Thursday and Friday, which puts him in line to play this Sunday, barring a setback. Berrios has been valuable in the kick and punt return game but hasn't done enough offensively to warrant fantasy consideration. For the year, he's hauled in 20-of-25 targets for 194 yards and a score.
Nov 17, 2023 6:33 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (hamstring) was limited in practice on Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday. Meanwhile, receiver Chase Claypool (knee) missed practice for the second straight day. It's not a good sign for Claypool, especially coming off a bye week. Berrios has played in all nine games this year but has only 20 catches for 194 yards and one touchdown as depth behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Cedrick Wilson Jr. Claypool came over in a midseason trade from the Chicago Bears and has just one catch for 15 yards in his three games for Miami. Both Berrios and Claypool should stay on your league's waiver wire.
Nov 16, 2023 8:26 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receivers Chase Claypool (knee) and Braxton Berrios (hamstring) did not set foot on the practice field on Wednesday. It's not a great sign for either receiver, especially coming off the team's Week 10 bye. As long as Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle remain healthy, Claypool and Berrios don't really have any intrigue in fantasy leagues. Claypool has only played three games with the Dolphins and has just one reception on two targets for 15 yards. Meanwhile, Berrios has 20 receptions for 194 yards and a touchdown in nine games played.
Nov 15, 2023 8:30 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (hamstring) is questionable to play in Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs in Germany on Sunday after he popped up on the injury report on Thursday. The good news is that Berrios was limited on Thursday and Friday, so he at least has a chance to suit up this weekend. If he is unable to play in Week 9, it will give Cedrick Wilson Jr. and Chase Claypool some more opportunities behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, especially if tight end Durham Smyth (ankle), who is also questionable, doesn't play. The 28-year-old Berrios hasn't really been on the fantasy radar in standard-sized leagues in 2023 with just 20 catches for 194 yards and a touchdown on 25 targets through the first eight weeks of action.
Nov 3, 2023 12:51 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (hamstring) was downgraded to a limited practice on Thursday after he was a full participant to begin the week on Wednesday. Mid-week downgrades on the injury report usually aren't good news for players, but if Berrios returns to a full practice on Friday, he should be good to go for the Week 9 meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday in Germany. If the 28-year-old wideout is unable to play this weekend or is limited at all, it would open the door for either Cedrick Wilson Jr. or Chase Claypool to have a bigger role as the No. 3 behind starters Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. Berrios has only 20 receptions (25 targets) for 194 yards and one touchdown in eight games in his first year in Miami.
Nov 2, 2023 6:41 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) was a full participant during Thursday's practice session. This is an upgrade after Berrios was limited during Wednesday's practice. Right now, it sounds like Berrios is on pace to suit up for the Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. This season, Berrios has hauled in 15 of his 18 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown. He's currently a distant third option behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle in this offense.
Oct 12, 2023 10:05 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's team practice. Like last week, Berrios started with a limited practice on Wednesday. But he eventually practiced in full the next two days and was cleared to play with no injury designation this past Sunday. It appears the 28-year-old wideout is on the same trajectory heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. He has 15 catches for 159 yards and one touchdown this season and should only be started in extremely deep leagues this weekend.
Oct 12, 2023 12:37 AM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) logged his second consecutive full practice on Friday and no longer has an injury designation for Sunday's meeting with the Giants. The 28-year-old has gained popularity from those exploring the waiver wire after amassing six catches for 43 yards and a touchdown in the loss to Buffalo in Week 4. But he began the week with a limited practice session, although it appears he's good to go. At any rate, everyone knows Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are Miami's top receiving options. However, Berrios can deployed as a flex option for fantasy managers in deeper formats.
Oct 6, 2023 10:00 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) was upgraded to a full practice on Thursday after he was limited in Wednesday's session. Berrios is now on track to play in Week 5 against the New York Giants on Sunday, barring a setback in practice on Friday. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are Miami's unquestioned top two receivers, but Berrios has had a decent role in this explosive offense through the first four weeks. It makes him worth a bench stash in deeper fantasy leagues, especially coming off his six-catch, 43-yard, one-touchdown performance in last week's loss to the Buffalo Bills. The 27-year-old has caught 13 of his 16 targets for 146 yards and the one touchdown so far in 2023.
Oct 5, 2023 7:54 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) was a limited participant in the team's practice on Wednesday. Berrios has split WR3 reps with Robbie Chosen and Cedrick Wilson Jr. this season. But he was the most efficient wideout of the bunch in the Dolphins' 48-20 blowout loss in Week 5. The 27-year-old caught six passes for 43 yards and one touchdown in the game. It's a good sign that Berrios practiced in some capacity on Wednesday, and he should be on track to suit up this week. He should only be started, though, in extremely deep leagues.
Oct 5, 2023 12:58 AM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios hauled in three of his five targets for 42 receiving yards against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday afternoon. The versatile, athletic receiver is capable of making plays happen, but he isn't currently on the fantasy radar. Look elsewhere if you need to bolster the wide receiver position in your lineups.
Sep 10, 2023 8:43 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Braxton Berrios turned four targets into three catches for 33 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's preseason win over the Houston Texans. Berrios caught passes from both Tua Tagovailoa and Skylar Thompson, though he produced more (and scored his touchdown) when playing with the latter. It will be tough for Berrios to carve out consistent weekly production behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, but his flashy, physical, and versatile style of play does make him an appealing sleeper option in best-ball formats.
Aug 19, 2023 9:29 PM EST
Berrios wasn't targeted in Sunday's season finale against the Dolphins. He finishes the season with 18 catches for 145 yards on 32 targets.
