DeVante Parker Inactive For Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) is inactive for their Week 2 game against the Jets.

Albert Wilson An Unexciting Option In Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson is a low-end option in Week 2 against the Jets. He has an unclear role in the offense and caught just three passes for 31 yards on four targets in Week 1 against the Titans. The Jets do have a weak pass defense. The Jets were number 22 in […]

Danny Amendola A Poor Flex Option Sunday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola has a suspect role in the team's offense based on his tepid Week 1 performance. Amendola caught four passes for 26 yards against the Titans in Week 1.

Frank Gore A Low-End Flex Option In Week 2

Kenyan Drake A Borderline RB2 in Week 2

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake is facing uncertainty in the amount of touches he will receive in Week 2.

Ryan Tannehill Facing Good Matchup In Week 2

DeVante Parker Practices Wednesday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) practiced with the team Wednesday. He caught passes and ran routes for the first time since Parker originally suffered the broken finger.
