Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle recorded six catches for 110 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in his team's 27-24 Week 5 loss to the Carolina Panthers. In the team's first game of 2025 without star wideout Tyreek Hill (knee), Waddle stepped in admirably as the number one option in the passing game for Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Waddle now has 23 catches for 295 yards and three touchdowns through five games in 2025. With Hill set to miss the remainder of the season with a knee injury, Waddle could be a must-start fantasy wide receiver the rest of the way.

The Kansas City Chiefs consider wide receiver Rashee Rice their clear No. 1 option and have not entertained trade offers for other players at the position. A team source told Dianna Russini, "He's better than any trade we could make. People don't realize how good he is." Rice, currently serving a six-game suspension for charges related to a hit-and-run, was on a phenomenal pace in 2024 before the setback. He hauled in 24 of 29 targets for 288 yards and two touchdowns in just three games. Scheduled to return in Week 7 against the Las Vegas Raiders, Rice is expected to reclaim his WR1 role in Kansas City immediately. With the fantasy wide receiver market looking uncertain, Rice has the potential to step right back into the WR1 fold in most formats this season.
