Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle will line up inside and outside, and they will have speed packages for him as well, according to head coach Sean Payton.
Huddle Up: Waddle really landed in a good spot for his fantasy value. He had a 64-910-6 line last season, which was good for the WR23 in PPR leagues. That was on an atrocious team, which bodes well for him in his new situation. He played 16 games last season, but he's always on the injury report. So, you'll have that headache, and in the thin air, that could present bigger injury concerns. However, he feels like a safe WR2 with some upside.

Huddle Up: Waddle will be the new WR2 for the Broncos upon his arrival. He has a chance to also be a reliable WR2 for your fantasy team in 2026 as he plays opposite Courtland Sutton.

Miami Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle and a fourth-round pick were acquired by the Denver Broncos Tuesday, March 17, in exchange for a first-, third- and fourth-round pick.
Huddle Up: Waddle was the WR23 in PPR leagues after a 64-910-6 season in 2025. Waddle is seemingly on the injury report most weeks, but he has averaged 15.6 games played in his five seasons. He's just 27 years old and could easily rise to the top of the WR2 food chain in Denver.

Miami Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle isn't being shopped, according to general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan. The team is willing to listen to offers for him, though.
Huddle Up: Waddle was the WR23 in PPR leagues last season with a 64-910-6 line in 16 games. Waddle is entering the three-year, $84.75 million extension he signed and has predominately been a WR2 in his career.

Miami Dolphins WR Jaylen Waddle is a player the Pittsburgh Steelers could try to trade for this offseason, according to Steelers correspondent from The Pat McAfee show Mark Kaboly, and Kaboly said the Steelers attempted to acquire Waddle before the trade deadline.
Huddle Up: Miami reportedly views Waddle as a building block of the offense and doesn't want to trade the wide receiver, so it would likely to take a serious offer to make the Dolphins reconsider. With quarterback questions in either scenario, Waddle likely falls in the WR3 range in 2026.
