Matt Breida Hopeful To Play In Week 10
Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida (hamstring) was able to get through a limited practice on Wednesday. It's a step in the right direction for Breida who was forced to sit out last week. The Dolphins could certainly use the help in the backfield since the trio of Jordan Howard, Patrick Laird and Salvon Ahmed […]
Tua Tagovailoa An Interesting Option Versus Chargers
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa had a solid outing last week after a lackluster first career start in Week 8. Miami has handed Tagovailoa the keys to this offense and he looked sharp against the Arizona Cardinals. He completed 20 of 28 passing attempts for 248 yards and two touchdowns with zero interceptions in the […]
Lies, Damned Lies, and Fantasy Statistics - Broken Tackle Rate

The Miami Dolphins are placing wide receiver Preston Williams (foot) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday.

The Cut List (Week 10) - Time to Let Go?
Week 9 was an all-around awful one for me from a fantasy/gambling perspective, so I'm a little ticked off as I settle in to write this week's edition of the Cut List. My starting QB in my primary home league, Justin Herbert, had a last-second touchdown taken off the board. Chase Edmonds logged 88 yards […]

Mike Gesicki Finally Makes An Impact
Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki has been a tough option to trust during most of the regular season. Heading into this game, Gesicki had one reception for eight yards over his last two games.

Preston Williams Suffers Injury During Week 9
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams (foot) was carted off the field during the Week 9 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker has put together some disappointing performances over the last few weeks.

Salvon Ahmed Rushes For 38 Yards
Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed received his first snaps of the 2020 season against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9.

Both Matt Breida (hamstring) and DeAndre Washington should […]

Miami Dolphins running back Jordan Howard was given the lead back duties with Myles Gaskin (knee) sidelined in Week 9.

Preston Williams Appears To Have Foot Sprain
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams exited Sunday's game against the Cardinals with a foot injury and didn't return.

Preston Williams Carted To Locker Room
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams has been carted to the locker room with a foot injury during Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.
