Darren Waller to make Dolphins debut Monday

Sep 27 · 11:53 AM EDT

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel announced Saturday that TE Darren Waller will play and make his team debut Monday against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact:

This will be Warren’s first game since the end of the 2023 season with the Giants afree initially retiring before the 2024 season and then coming out of retirement and being traded to Miami. Waller will likely play a limited number of snaps as he recovers from a hip injury. None of Miami’s tight ends are worth playing this week.

NYG TE Darren Waller - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Los Angeles Rams

Darren Waller caught two balls for 32 yards last week against the Eagles. Waller has been getting targets - averages 6.2 per game this year - but he just isn’t producing. He has just three double-digit half-PPR fantasy performances this year and only one touchdown all season. The Giants offense hasn’t been good enough to sustain fantasy pass-catchers, and Waller just hasn’t been able to be an exception to that.

This week, Waller faces a Rams defense that ranks eighth in aFPA to opposing tight ends. He gets enough targets to warrant fantasy consideration, but he’s a risky, fringe-starter in most leagues. Expect a high level of variance for the veteran, and fantasy managers should hold their breath if forced to start him.
