Jaylen Waddle Leads Dolphins in Receiving Yards During Overtime Victory

Jaylen Waddle recorded a team-high 52 receiving yards on three of seven targets in the Dolphins' 16-13 overtime win against the Commanders in Madrid on Sunday. The 2021 sixth-overall pick has shown versatility throughout his career, transitioning from a high-volume possession receiver in his rookie year to a more efficient deep threat after Tyreek Hill's arrival. While he demonstrated No. 1 receiver talent with an 8-142-1 line when Hill was sidelined in 2023, his target volume has averaged 7.1 per game under coach Mike McDaniel. Waddle, who is 5-10, 185, and possesses sub-4.4 speed, had his final season at Alabama cut short by a dislocated ankle before reuniting with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in Miami.
