Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (concussion) remains in the league's concussion protocol and missed a second straight practice on Thursday. Waddle took a hard hit to the helmet in the Week 2 win over the New England Patriots and is trending toward missing a Week 3 showdown at home against the Denver Broncos. The Dolphins aren't in any rush to clear the third-year pass-catcher either, so fantasy managers should already be making plans to be without him this weekend. All-Pro pass-catcher Tyreek Hill is already a weekly must-start, but he could see even more targets against a Denver defense that just allowed 35 points to the Washington Commanders. If Waddle is inactive this weekend, it will create more opportunities for Braxton Berrios, River Cracraft and Erik Ezukanma, as well as tight end Durham Smythe.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Quentin Johnston only made one catch in a 27-24 overtime loss to the Tennessee Titans in Week 2. Johnston saw two targets, making the one catch for seven yards. The Chargers passing game spread the ball around to nine different targets, focusing on Keenan Allen and Mike Williams for eight catches each, not leaving much for any other pass catchers. Johnston has the talent to be a serious factor in the NFL, but fantasy managers will need to continue to be patient with him before they see consistent results.
