Surprise Fantasy Football Studs, Duds - Real or Mirage?
Week 15 was a very frustrating week to start your fantasy football playoffs, especially at the quarterback position.

Will Fuller Has Another Setback
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Will Fuller (finger) suffered another setback, according to head coach Brian Flores. Fuller has been out since Week 5 with a fractured finger, and he's now likely to miss the final three games of the season.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle and running back Phillip Lindsay were activated from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday.

Mike Gesicki Disappointing Versus Jets
Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki was expected to have a big game with wide receiver Jaylen Waddle sidelined due to protocols. However, the big tight end wasn't able to make much of an impact in Week 15. He hauled in five of his eight targets for 43 yards in the win over the New […]
Isaiah Ford Surprises In Week 15
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford has barely been involved this season, but he made an impact in Week 15. Coming into this game, Ford had eight receptions on 12 targets, but he added to that total on Sunday. He hauled in all three of his targets for 51 yards in the win over the […]
DeVante Parker Grabs Touchdown In Week 15
Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker was expected to have a bigger role with Jaylen Waddle sidelined in Week 15 due to protocols. Parker has been solid when he plays this season and that trend continued on Sunday. He hauled in four of his eight targets for 68 yards and one touchdown in the win […]
Myles Gaskin Has Lackluster Outing
Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin was uncertain for this Week 15 matchup due to the fact he was in the league's COVID-19 protocols earlier in the week. Gaskin ended up suiting up, but he was disappointing on Sunday. He rushed 10 times for 54 yards in the win over the New York Jets. He […]
Duke Johnson Has An Outstanding Performance
Miami Dolphins running back Duke Johnson came out of nowhere and posted a fantastic outing in Week 15. This might've been one of the oddest breakout performances of the season. Johnson rushed 22 times for 107 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the New York Jets. Lead back Myles Gaskin did return in […]
Tua Tagovailoa Shaky In Win Over Jets
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa looked shaky all day long versus the New York Jets in Week 15.

Tagovailoa looked lost out there for […]
Adam Shaheen Inactive For Week 15
Miami Dolphins tight end Adam Shaheen (knee) is officially inactive for Week 15 against the New York Jets after coming into the game listed as questionable.

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 15
The wide receiver matchups article from Week 14 did not play out very well other than Ja'Marr Chase (WR4) who exploded for two touchdowns. Many of the high-end receivers underwhelmed in great spots.
