Miami Dolphins WR Chris Bell (knee) was activated from the Active/Non-Football Injury list Monday, Aug. 17.
Huddle Up: Bell is recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament but has a chance to become a big part of the Dolphins passing game once healthy. Fantasy players can consider him a late round option and can keep him stashed on the bench until he is ready to play.

Miami Dolphins RB Ollie Gordon II was pulled from the preseason game Friday, Aug. 14, against the Washington Commanders after taking an unsportsmanlike penalty. "Had a talk with him immediately and pulled him out of the game, eventually let him go back in. As far as the conversation goes, I'll keep that between us. It was a great time to teach the team a lesson and Ollie a lesson." head coach Jeff Hafley said. "We had an opportunity to continue a drive; post-snap penalties like that are not acceptable to me. It's disrespectful to the team. It's selfish."
Huddle Up: Gordon is battling Jaylen Wright for the primary backup job to De'Von Achane. Obviously disciplinary situations aren't great in his pursuit for that job. He also has to worry about Donovan Edwards, who is attempting to win the No. 3 job. If Gordon can stay out of the doghouse, he proved himself in 2025, and he could be a player who makes a fantasy impact, especially if injuries strike in South Florida. For now, avoid him outside of deeper leagues.

Miami Dolphins WR Malik Washington caught all three of his targets for 15 yards in the preseason game against the Washington Commanders Friday, Aug. 14.
Huddle Up: Washington showed solid chemistry with Malik Willis, and he looks like the best bet to emerge as Miami's No. 1 receiver this season. There is plenty of uncertainty surrounding both Willis and Washington, but the opportunities should certainly be there for Washington. He is worth a look as a WR4.

Miami Dolphins QB Malik Willis completed four of his five passes for 43 yards and rushed twice for nine yards in the preseason game against the Washington Commanders Friday, Aug. 14.
Huddle Up: Willis has flashed potential in spot starts the last couple of seasons, but he now takes over a Miami offense that doesn't have a lot of proven options at the receiver position. On the plus side, his rushing ability should bolster his fantasy production, and Willis looks like a QB2 with some upside.

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane rushed seven times for 39 yards and a touchdown in the preseason game against the Washington Commanders Friday, Aug. 14.
Huddle Up: In addition to being one of the most explosive runners in the league, Achane has also been a force in the passing game. With his versatility and big-play ability, Achane should be back in the RB1 mix in 2026.

Miami Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas is listed as one of the starting wide receivers on the team's first unofficial depth chart because he has been consistent during training camp, according to head coach Jeff Hafley.
Huddle Up: The Dolphins moved on from multiple receivers during the offseason, so Douglas has a chance to be a starter right away. He is off to a strong start and will see a handful of targets each game if he earns a solid role. He could be a late round pick in some deeper leagues but will not be a starting option most weeks.

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane could have games in which he touches the ball more than 40 times, HC Jeff Hafley said during an interview on the "The Rich Eisen Show," on Tuesday, Aug. 11.
Huddle Up: This is certainly good news for all fantasy managers that have Achane on their roster or are in need of an RB1 this season. The downside is that he does not appear to have much help on the rebuilding team. Miami likely will start an inexperienced Malik Willis at QB, and it has no experienced wide receivers. Achane is still an RB1 in all formats but he may need those extra touches to reach his '25 production.

Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich (hand) fully participated in practice Monday, Aug. 10.
Huddle Up: Dulcich missed some practice time earlier in training camp but seems to have recovered from his injury. He has a chance to be a consistent part of the passing game this season and can be a No. 2 tight end in fantasy leagues.

Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day because of an undisclosed injury.
Huddle Up: Dulcich does not appear to be dealing with a serious injury, so fantasy players should check if he can return to practice in the next week or two. He should be a starting tight end for the Dolphins and may see a decent amount of targets each game. He can be a No. 2 tight end in deeper leagues.

Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich (undisclosed) did not participate in practice Monday, Aug. 3.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation to see when Dulcich will be able to return to the field. He will likely see a decent amount of targets this season but is likely to be a No. 2 tight end in most leagues.

Miami Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas has been stringing together solid practices during training camp and had his "best day" thus far on Friday, July 31, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com
Huddle Up: The path to targets in the Miami offense is wide open, and Douglas is building some early momentum. If he continues to shine throughout training camp and opens the year as a starter, he could be worth a late-round flyer in deeper leagues.

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) is "ready to go" for the start of training camp following surgery this offseason, according to ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques.
Huddle Up: Achane is projected as a reliable RB1 with the potential to finish as the top running back in fantasy football in 2026. Him being ready for training camp is a good sign that he can reach that potential.

Miami Dolphins WR Caleb Douglas has a chance to earn a starting role this season, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network.
Huddle Up: Douglas being in the mix to start probably says more about Miami's situation at receiver than it does about Douglas, but the path to snaps at wide receiver is wide open. It is unlikely that any Miami receiver produces big numbers, but someone has to be the de facto No. 1 option, and that someone could be Douglas. His role is at least worth watching.

Miami Dolphins WR Chris Bell (knee) will start training camp on the Active/Non-Football Injury list stemming from his torn ACL last December while at Louisville.
Huddle Up: Bell, the team's third-round draft selection this past April, is expected to take a sizable role in the Dolphins' new-look receiving corps in 2026. While Bell recuperates from his torn ACL last December, keep tabs on his status, but he'd be a waiver-wire addition in-season if he were to nab a fantasy-relevant role with Miami in 2026.

Miami Dolphins LB Jordyn Brooks agreed to a three-year, $51 million deal Tuesday, July 21, with $35 million guaranteed.
Huddle Up: Brooks is one of the elite linebackers in IDP leagues, finishing second in fantasy points last season. He had 99 solo tackles, 84 assists, 3.5 sacks and three pass defenses in 2025. He'll be an LB1 again this season.

Miami Dolphins WR Jalen Tolbert is emerging as the top target of QB Malik Willis heading into training camp, according to the Sun Sentinel's David Furones.
Huddle Up: Tolbert is the most veteran receiving option right now on the Dolphins roster. Tolbert could be a low-hanging fruit and worth a late-round target in any drafts that remain, as he is potentially a WR3 or flex play in leagues in 2026.

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane's 5.62 yard per carry for his career is the best mark of any running back in NFL history with a minimum of 500 carries.
Huddle Up: Achane's speed allows him to pile up yards in bunches, but his receiving ability may be his biggest fantasy asset. He has 145 receptions over the last two seasons, allowing him to make an impact regardless of the game flow. Achane should be able to deliver another RB1 campaign in 2026.

Miami Dolphins RB Ollie Gordon II and RB Jaylen Wright will compete for the No. 2 running back job during training camp.
Huddle Up: Both Gordon and Wright saw limited playing time last season, and neither is expected to have a big role this season since De'Von Achane is a big part of the Dolphins offense. The winner of the competition could be a late round pick in deeper leagues but will not be a starting fantasy option.

Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich emerged "as one of the primary targets" in the passing game this spring, according to ESPN.com's Marcel Louis-Jacques.
Huddle Up: More spring hype than not is useless, but there are several reasons to buy into Dulcich in 2026. First and foremost, the Dolphins have a collection of non-Day 1 rookies and veteran receivers who have failed to emerge as starters, such as Jalen Tolbert and Tutu Atwell. Even Malik Washington failed to distinguish himself last season. It also makes sense that a mobile quarterback like Malik Willis would lean on a big target who does most of his work near the line of scrimmage. Dulcich is also no slouch from a talent perspective, as injuries have seemingly struck just about every time he appeared to be establishing himself. He showed some juice after the catch in 2025, which is something that Miami will need desperately with all the negative game scripts it is likely to see this season.

Miami Dolphins WR Jalen Tolbert was a favorite target for QB Malik Willis during offseason workouts and will likely be a candidate to start if he stays healthy, in the opinion of The Miami Herald's Omar Kelly.
Huddle Up: The Dolphins have made big changes to their receiving corps this offseason, so Tolbert has a good chance to start Week 1 if he performs well during camp. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation because Tolbert could be a late round pick in some deeper leagues.

Miami Dolphins WR Malik Washington is becoming more than just a weapon out of the slot," according to head coach Jeff Hafley. "I think he's getting better as a route runner," Hafley said.
Huddle Up: Washington has a good chance to emerge as one of the top options in an unproven receiver room, and while he will likely operate mainly from the slot, it is encouraging to hear that he is expanding his repertoire. Someone has to catch passes in Miami, and Washington is worth taking a chance on in the later rounds of drafts.

Miami Dolphins QB Malik Willis looked "more comfortable" with the team's offense this week, according to head coach Jeff Hafley.
Huddle Up: Willis, being a dual-threat at the quarterback position, makes him a value in fantasy football. While the team around him is not the best, he will have plenty of chances for passing yards and rushing plays as the offense goes through him in 2026. Hearing he is looking more comfortable in the offense ahead of camp is a good sign for his potential.

Miami Dolphins QB Malik Willis' running ability will be incorporated into the offense, according to head coach Jeff Hafley.
Huddle Up: If Willis does use his legs on a consistent basis, especially in the red zone, it will go a long way to boosting his overall fantasy value. Whether or not the brief flashes he has shown as a backup will translate to a starting role remains to be seen, but Willis is an intriguing QB2.

Miami Dolphins WR Tutu Atwell "appears to be more than just a deep-ball threat" based on his performance at minicamp, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: Atwell has showcased big-play speed in the past, but he has never had a steady role in an offense. Given the lack of proven options in Miami's receiving room, Atwell will have a chance to change that in 2026. If he continues to impress, he could be worth grabbing in the later rounds of drafts.

Miami Dolphins QB Malik Willis delivered some "highlight" throws and displayed his arm strength during minicamp Wednesday, June 3, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com.
Huddle Up: Although Willis has flashed some potential in limited starts the last couple of years, it remains to be seen what he can do on a consistent basis as a starter. He will be worth a look as a midrange QB2, but a questionable supporting cast could hurt his upside.

Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane (shoulder) will only participate in individual drills during the mandatory minicamp this week, according to head coach Jeff Hafley.
Huddle Up: Achane is recovering from surgery but will have more time to recover before the start of training camp. He will see a lot of touches in 2026 if he is healthy and will be a weekly starting option in all fantasy leagues.

Miami Dolphins QB Malik Willis is working on building chemistry with the team's wide receivers in organized team activities, according to head coach Jeff Hafley.
Huddle Up: Willis is going to be a midrange QB2 that could be worthy of spot starts in certain matchups. There's not a lot of upside, though, with the receiving corps not providing a ton of punch.

Miami Dolphins WR Malik Washington has been praised for his ability to learn and execute the offense, and he has seemingly grasped the new playbook faster than any of his teammates. He has emerged as a favorite target of new QB Malik Willis, but he still needs to step out of the slot and into a split end or flanker role to see the field more consistently.
Huddle Up: Washington has the potential to be a top target in the Miami passing offense, especially as the lone holdover trying to replace the likes of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, etc. He will be trying to hold off the likes of Tutu Atwell, Chris Bell, Kevin Coleman Jr., Caleb Douglas, Terrace Marshall Jr., Jalen Tolbert, Theo Wease Jr. and Tahj Washington in a crowded, yet rather unspectacular receivers room. He has fantasy potential, but let's see how training camp and the preseason goes before green-lighting him as anything more than a late-round fantasy flyer.

Miami Dolphins TE Greg Dulcich was considered one of the top performers at organized team activities (OTAs), and he has seemingly built an early rapport with new QB Malik Willis. Still, he needs to work to become a reliable run blocker and pass protector, also known as in-line duties. The team drafted TE Will Kacmarek for in-line duties, and he has shown some good hands early on.
Huddle Up: Dulcich is the go-to guy at tight end in Miami early, and it's possible he could emerge as a low-end TE1 or top-tier TE2 guy in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams. However, he will have Kacmarek breathing down his neck, and rookie Seydou Traore is also in the mix. Do not draft Dulcich as a fantasy starter, but more of a player with upside in the later rounds on draft day.
