Jaylen Waddle Motivated After Disappointing Season

Saturday, July 12, 1:14 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle appears to be plenty motivated in 2025 after the offense took a step back in 2024, with Waddle falling short of a fourth straight 1,000-yard season. Waddle finished with 744 yards and two touchdowns on 58 catches, all career-lows. "After watching the film, definitely a lot of hand eye (coordination) -- I feel like I'm trying to move without the ball too much," he said. "And just the simple things, just timing, getting smoother in and out of my routes. Pretty much that," Waddle said. The 26-year-old has also been improving his chemistry with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. A bounce-back campaign in 2025 is certainly possible for the speedy Waddle, but unfortunately his fantasy value is tied to the injury-prone Tagovailoa and an offense that was a shell of its former self last year. RotoBaller has Waddle ranked as the WR28.

Garrett Wilson Standing Out Even More

Friday, July 25, 11:16 PM

According to ESPN's Rich Cimini, New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson stood out even more in Friday's practice. "[The] passing attack is all Garrett Wilson," wrote Cimini. "No one else stepping up." The wideout, who recently agreed to a lucrative four-year, $130 million extension, surpassed the 1,000-yard receiving mark in each of his first three seasons. He's also coming off his best year, ending the 2024 campaign with 101 receptions and seven touchdowns. The latest update from Cimini shouldn't be a surprise. However, with more positive reports throughout training camp and heading into Week 1, Wilson could find himself climbing preseason fantasy rankings. With that in mind, the 25-year-old may have a legitimate chance of finishing in the top-10 in terms of fantasy production at the wide receiver spot, especially with the Jets lacking depth at the position.
