Jaylen Waddle Optimism for Week 18 return

Published: 2024-12-30 11:56:59

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel expressed optimism about Waddle (knee) returning to action Sunday versus the Jets, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

Waddle didn't play in a win over Cleveland this past Sunday, as McDaniel said the team was worried about the wideout's risk of aggravating the knee issue. However, Waddle did log a pair of limited practices to end the week and appears to have a real chance of returning for the Dolphins' regular-season finale in a game they must win to keep their playoff hopes alive. Tyler Huntley could be the team's starting quarterback for a second straight week with Tua Tagovailoa still dealing with a hip injury.
