Rosenhaus: Dolphins TE Darren Waller will be ready Week 1

Aug 05, 2025

Drew Rosenhaus says his client Darren Waller WILL be ready for Week 1. The TE is on the PUP list working back into “football shape” after taking a year off.

Fantasy Impact:

The post went on to say HC Mike McDaniel will not comment on players that are not active. Waller, of course, has come out of retirement, after the Dolphins traded for him, and after trading Jonnu Smith to the Steelers, so it's expected that Waller will be the team's TE1. But Waller hasn't played much recently, and not at all last season, playing in 32 games total his last three active seasons. We think Waller has weekly upside at least, and is ranked as a low-end TE2 who should be around very late in drafts.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba plays everywhere. More importantly, he’s targeted from everywhere.

Fantasy Impact:

The author added that there is a notable distinction between lining up everywhere and getting targeted everywhere - "because sometimes you can line up guys everywhere for the sake of calling your players versatile, but they’re not really a threat to the defense," Dugar said. Smith-Njigba took a massive leap in his second season, finishing as the WR8 after a modest WR46 rookie campaign. JSN seized a featured role in the Seahawks’ passing attack, posting 100 catches for 1,130 yards and six touchdowns. He's 14th among WRs in our rankings.

Chargers sign WR Keenan Allen

Reunion: Six-time Pro Bowl WR Keenan Allen is signing with the Chargers on a one-year, $8.52 million deal.

Fantasy Impact:

The Chargers don't have a lot of sure things behind McConkey, so Allen could certainly be a fantasy-factor being back with the Chargers. It seems like every day we see a Johnston drop in camp, Harris is just a rookie this season and Lambert-Smith has been mentioned as a sleeper, but Allen definitely fills a need in the Charger offense and could help as a WR3 on your fantasy team.

Sean McVay said QB Matthew Stafford (back) "feels good" and is "making good progress."

Fantasy Impact:

According to the post, McVay added, "We've been able to kind of increase some things behind the scenes. And so he's in good spirits." The team is calling Stafford week-to-week and are likely taking things slow with their starting QB.
