Tanner Conner Set to Start?
Miami Dolphins tight end Tanner Conner could suddenly be thrust into a larger role this week for the Dolphins after Darren Waller (pectoral) landed on IR and Julian Hill (ankle) was also ruled out for the team's Week 8 matchup with the Falcons. Conner played about 50% of snaps in the first few weeks of the season when Waller was out, but has had a reduced role since then. He had two catches for 20 yards back in Week 1, and he snagged a season-best 28-yard grab last week against the Browns. He has flashed a little upside, but how he'll deal with all the extra work is uncertain, especially in a tough matchup against the Falcons. Conner is a high-risk, speculative pickup, but his expected bump in playing time makes him worth monitoring and considering as a desperation play this week.
