Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant caught four passes for 36 yards in the Dolphins' 42-23 loss to the Texans in Week 8. Grant had the opportunity to increase his role with Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson injured, but was still clearly behind Devante Parker and Danny Amendola on the wide receiver food chain. He […]

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola was the team's second leading receiver in Miami's Week 8 42-23 loss to the Houston Texans. Amendola caught five passes for 43 yards on six targets. He also threw for a touchdown on a trick play. Amendola's receiving output was a little disappointing considering Amendola was one of three […]

Kenyan Drake A Low-End Flex In Week 8
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake is a low-end flex option in Week 8 against the Houston Texans. Drake had a nice bounce back in Week 7, totaling 87 yards and a touchdown, but he made most of his day on one 54-yard touchdown run. He only got ten touches in that game and didn't […]

Jakeem Grant Moving Up The Depth Chart For Week 8
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant could see more action than normal in Week 8 against the Houston Texans. Miami is without receivers Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson, leaving Grant as one of three healthy receivers on the active roster. Grant, a 5'6" return man, is dangerous with the ball in space and could fill […]

Danny Amendola Could Have Expanded Role In Week 8
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola could get more looks than normal in Week 8 against Houston. Miami will be without receivers Kenny Stills and Albert Wilson for this week and possibly longer, meaning Amendola is the number one receiver by default. Amendola is dealing with a minor shoulder ailment but is expected to play. […]

Brock Osweiler A Low-End QB2 Against Texans
Miami Dolphins quarterback Brock Osweiler will draw his third straight start in Week 8 against the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football. Osweiler has performed surprisingly well in his first two outings, averaging 21.88 fantasy points in his first two starts. Based on past experience we know this performance isn't going to last, and Osweiler […]

Ryan Tannehill Will Be Inactive For Week 8
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (shoulder) will miss his third consecutive game in Week 8. Considering Tannehill wasn't able to play last week and Miami had a short turnaround into Thursday Night Football this news is hardly surprising. Brock Osweiler will continue to fill-in for Tannehill against Houston. Given the somewhat mysterious nature of Tannehill's […]

Mike Gesicki Catches Three Passes In Loss
Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki set a career high in yardage in Miami's 32-21 loss to Detroit in Week 7. Gesicki caught three passes on three targets for 44 yards. New Miami quarterback Brock Osweiler seems to favor the tight end a little more than Ryan Tannehill, so perhaps Gesicki will see an uptick […]

Danny Amendola Catches First Touchdown In Loss
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola turned in his best performance of the year in Miami's Week 7 loss to Detroit. Amendola caught six passes for 84 yards and a touchdown.

Kenny Stills Catches One Pass For Touchdown In Week 7
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills was mostly a non-factor in Miami's 32-21 loss to Detroit in Week 7. He caught one pass for five yards and a touchdown. Stills briefly left this game after colliding with a security guard, but returned after a check in the medical tent. He was targeted just three times […]

Albert Wilson Suffers Hip Injury In Loss
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson suffered a hip injury in Miami's 32-21 loss to Detroit in Week 7. Wilson left during the second quarter and never returned. The extent of the injury hasn't been revealed at this time, but considering Miami plays on Thursday Night Football in Week 8 Wilson's status should be in […]

Frank Gore Disappoints In Week 7 Loss
Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore was disappointing and unproductive in Miami's 32-21 loss to Detroit in Week 7. He rushed 10 times for 29 yards and caught one pass for four yards. Gore looked poised to take the lead in a committee with Kenyan Drake after Gore's Week 6 101-yard performance, but he was […]

Brock Osweiler Tosses Pair of Touchdowns in Week 7

Albert Wilson Questionable To Return With Leg Injury
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson (leg) is questionable to return after exiting Miami's Week 7 game against the Lions. Descriptions of the injury have been rather vague, with reporters hinting it might be a knee injury. Wilson had three catches for 32 yards before leaving. If he is forced to miss time Danny Amendola […]

Kenny Stills A Poor Option In Week 7
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills is nothing more than a desperation flex option for Week 7 against the Detroit Lions. Stills' catch volume has decreased in each of the last three weeks, and he was held to just one catch for 35 yards in Week 6. Brock Osweiler rarely throws the ball deep, due […]

Brock Osweiler Not A Great Fantasy Option In Week 7
Miami Dolphins quarterback Brock Osweiler is a low-end QB2 heading into a Week 7 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Detroit is allowing just 222 passing yards per game to opposing quarterbacks and have been one of the stingiest pass defenses in 2018. Despite a surprise 380-yard, three-touchdown performance last week Osweiler has been a horrible […]

His offensive contributions are surprising and […]

Kenny Stills Catches One Pass In Week 6
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills was relatively uninvolved in Miami's 31-28 overtime win over Chicago in Week 6. He caught one pass for 35 yards on two targets. Stills also caught a two-point conversion. He took a backseat to Albert Wilson in this one, and since fill-in quarterback Brock Osweiler rarely throws downfield Stills […]
