BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 60% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Starting Sam Darnold is tough to stomach given his last three weeks in Carolina. Darnold has completed just 54 of 103 passes (52%) for 495 yards and two touchdowns with five interceptions. Darnold has struggled to replicate his hot start to the […]

Duke Johnson Heading To Dolphins Practice Squad

The Miami Dolphins have signed free-agent running back Duke Johnson to their practice squad, according to Adam Schefter. This move comes after Malcolm Brown (quadriceps) was placed on Injured Reserve, so Miami gets some more depth to an already thin backfield. Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed will likely see a timeshare moving forward, so Johnson […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It has to be hard to be in Tua Tagovailoa's shoes these days.

Malcolm Brown, Jason McCourty To Go On Injured Reserve

Miami Dolphins running back Malcolm Brown (quadriceps) and safety Jason McCourty (foot) will be placed on Injured Reserve this week after getting injured in the Week 7 loss to the Atlanta Falcons.

Jaylen Waddle Continues Success In Week 7

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has seen an uptick in targets with DeVante Parker (hamstring) sidelined. In Week 7, Waddle hauled in seven of his eight targets for 83 yards in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Those 83 yards were a career-high for Waddle as he continues to build chemistry with quarterback Tua […]

Mike Gesicki Makes Easy Work Of Falcons

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki has been one of the better options at his position over the last month or so. In Week 7, Gesicki hauled in seven of his eight targets for 85 yards and one touchdown in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The Dolphins are banged up at wideout, so Gesicki […]

Salvon Ahmed Gets Involved In Week 7

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed has seen an inconsistent workload through the first half of the regular season. In Week 7, Ahmed rushed seven times for 26 yards and hauled in two receptions for 26 yards in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Honestly, it's uncertain if Ahmed would've seen that many carries if […]

Malcolm Brown Gets Injured In Loss To Falcons

Miami Dolphins running back Malcolm Brown (quad) received the start during the Week 7 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Sadly, Brown only lasted five snaps before exiting the game and not returning. Brown finished with 10 rushing yards on three carries and one reception in the loss. It's uncertain if Brown is going to miss […]

Myles Gaskin Gets 15 Carries

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin saw an increased workload on the ground for the Week 7 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons. Technically, Malcolm Brown (quad) received the start, but exited the game and didn't return. His absence pushed Gaskin into a larger role during Sunday's loss. Gaskin rushed 15 times for 67 yards and […]

Tua Tagovailoa Tosses Four Touchdowns In Loss

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa more than doubled his season touchdown total in the Week 7 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons. He completed 32-of-40 passing attempts for 291 yards with four touchdowns and two interceptions in the loss. On paper, it was a fairly solid day for Tua, but that really wasn't the case. Both […]

Preston Williams Active For Week 7

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams (groin) will play in Week 7 against the Atlanta Falcons.

The last time he played without Parker was in Week 5, […]

DeVante Parker Inactive For Week 7

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Atlanta Falcons. He last played in Week 4 against the Colts.
