During the offseason, the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-sign-odell-beckham-jr-after-bounce-back-year-with-ravens">Dolphins added Odell Beckham Jr. to their receiving core</a>, but he will start the season on the PUP list, which means he’ll miss the first four games.</p><p>When all three receivers hit the field, defenses will have to cover a lot of ground with their speed and route running. For now, Hill and Waddle will take much of the load, and that should be enough for the Dolphins to get some wins.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel would provide the relatively good news ahead of the team’s preseason opener against the Atlanta Falcons on Friday.</p><p>The injury has not been disclosed by the team or McDaniel himself as the receiver looks to have a great year in Waddle’s fourth season in the NFL. However, McDaniel would say that it is <a href="https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2024/08/07/jaylen-waddle-injury-minor-as-dolphins-starters-may-not-play-preseason-opener-um-standout-harley-signed/?utm_source=dlvr.it&amp;utm_medium=twitter" rel="noopener">“minor”</a> which would lead anyone to believe that it will not impact his status for the start of the regular season according to David Furones of The Sun Sentinel.</p><p>“Minor stuff,” McDaniel said Wednesday about Waddle to the media after the Dolphins completed the second day of joint practices with the Falcons.</p><h2><b>McDaniel calls Dolphins star in Waddle a “tough” player</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Jaylen-Waddle-on-July-29-2024.jpg"><figcaption>Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p>Last season, the 25-year old wide receiver caught 72 catches to go along with 1,014 yards and four touchdowns in 14 games as he is the second <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-tyreek-hill-fires-back-at-haters-who-claim-tua-tagovailoa-cant-throw-deep">Dolphins explosive option to Tyreek Hill</a>. Waddle has dealt with injuries throughout his career and even in college with the University of Alabama, recently as towards the end of last season where he dealt with a high ankle injury.</p><p>Still, Waddle has performed at a high level ever since he stepped into the league as he has recorded over 1,000 receiving yards in every season leading to a three-year contract extension worth $84.75 million as he has two years left on his rookie contract. McDaniel sung the praises of Waddle Wednesday when asked about the injury saying he is “tough.”</p><p>“He’s one of the toughest wide receivers that I’ve ever had the opportunity to coach,” McDaniel said. “However, when you’re trying to make sure you get the season off on the right foot and you best facilitate the right scenario for health, you take measures and you learn new things.”</p><h2><b>Dolphins in joint practice with Falcons ahead of preseason opener</b></h2><p>Waddle has been time and time again one of Tua Tagovailoa’s favorite targets in the explosive Dolphins offense, which the rapport goes back to their days with the Crimson Tide. He will look to continue that momentum to this upcoming season, but first, Miami has the preseason which McDaniel compliments the team for how they attacked the joint practices with Atlanta.</p><p>“Overall, I liked our standard with which we attacked practice,” McDaniel said via The Sun Sentinel. “On defense, I saw a spirit that I was very confident in but you don’t know until you face another squad…The connectivity from Anthony Weaver on down through coaching staff and the players, emerged one common goal.”</p><p>“Offensively, on the field, I was looking at things very positive,” McDaniel continued. “And as I looked at the tape, I was pumped about the things I was really looking for as tangible things we’ve been emphasizing since April.”</p><p>At any rate, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/what-jaylen-waddles-84-million-contract-extension-means-wide-receiver-market">Waddle and the Dolphins are looking</a> to improve after a relatively successful season where they went 11-6 which put them second in the AFC East as they were eliminated by the Kansas City Chiefs in the wild card round of the NFL Playoffs. Miami opens up the season at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, Sept. 8.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He then covered FAU Sports for The Palm Beach Post.</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NFL</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>Out of the many contract situations <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-tua-tagovailoas-offseason-transformation-draws-funny-tyreek-hill-reactionhttps://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-tua-tagovailoas-offseason-transformation-draws-funny-tyreek-hill-reaction">happening within the Miami Dolphins</a>, one was handled about a week ago when <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/jaylen-waddle-lands-massive-84-75-million-contract-extension-from-dolphins">star wide receiver Jaylen Waddle was signed</a> to a three-year, $84.75 million extension. During part of the Dolphins’ team activities in the offseason Tuesday, he broke his silence and expressed his thoughts on the deal that fortifies his status as a crucial part of the team’s offense for years to come.</p><p>Waddle has been nothing but exciting since he was drafted to Miami with the sixth overall pick in 2021 where in all of his three seasons, he has recorded over 1,000 receiving yards. He called the contract extension a <a href="https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/jaylen-waddle-calls-it-a-blessing-to-get-an-extension-from-dolphins" rel="noopener">“blessing”</a> and one that shows how confidece the Dolphins are in Waddle to continue to put up his exceptional production according to NBC Sports.</p><p>“It’s a blessing, always a blessing to get an extension from the organization that brought you into the league,” Waddle said. “It says that they are confident in me. Like I said, they brought me into this league taking a chance — I was 22 coming off a major injury. So it’s always been love since I got here, and we were just happy to get something done.”</p><p>“You never know, man, it’s a business part on both sides, so you never know,” Waddle said on the uncertainty involving contracts and the <a href="https://www.si.com/nfl/dolphins/news/waddle-weighs-in-on-his-new-contract-01hzjp64qmbw">business side of football</a> via Scott Solomon of SI.com. “But it made sense for both sides and we were able to get it done.”</p><h2><b>Waddle touches on what he wants to improve on with the Dolphins</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Jaylen-Waddle-running-on-the-field-during-Dolphins-offseason-activities-on-June-4.jpg"><figcaption>Sam Navarro-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-tua-tagovailoa-tyreek-hill-drop-takes-on-qbs-contract-talks">Though Waddle has established</a> himself as one of the best young receivers in the league, there is still a lot of aspects the 25-year old wants to better himself in. One of those that he honed in on during his time with the media was his “quick game” and overall just “staying consistent” throughout the season.</p><p>“Yeah man, a lot of things,” Waddle said. “Quick game is something I was going to emphasize on, I felt like I needed to work on it more in the offseason. It’s something that we really emphasized on, me and my trainer – shout out Gold Feet, my guy. So yeah, we’ve been working.”</p><p>“Just staying consistent man throughout the year,” Waddle continued. “Making the big plays in big games in big moments and really putting the team on our back when we need to. That’s going to be the next step for us.”</p><h2><b>Waddle claims Tua Tagovailoa helped him get his contract extension</b></h2><p>If there is one person who is excited about the news with Waddle now that he is signed to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-tua-tagovailoa-mandatory-minicamp-status-contract-talks">Miami long-term, it’s star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa</a>, who is one of the players also working with the team on a possible contract extension. However, he said Tuesday how excited he was for his teammate not just on the Dolphins, but back when the two were at the University of Alabama.</p><p>“I was excited. I texted him,” Tagovailoa said. “We all texted each other – Jalen Ramsey, Terron Armstead, ‘Reek’ (Tyreek Hill). We all texted each other in a group chat congratulating him.”</p><p>Whether it be in college or at the professional level, the connection between Tagovailoa and Waddle has been stronger year after year as the two have helped each other <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-news-drew-rosenhaus-tyreek-hill-contract-talks-justin-jefferson-deal">grow with the Dolphins</a>. Waddle would even say that he would not be in this position with a contract extension if it was not for the signal-caller and advocates for him to get paid as well according to the team’s transcripts page.</p><p>“Yeah, Tua is my guy. I’ve been saying that for a long time. Without Tua, I don’t think I would’ve got the extension I got. So everybody is rooting for him. He’s our guy. Make sense, let’s get it done,” Waddle said which then spoke about his transformation in the offseason. “I told him – I missed chubby Tua, man. (laughter) I miss chubby Tua, man. I ain’t going to lie, I didn’t like when I saw him, I told him, I’m not (expletive) with it, I told him straight up, I’m not (expletive) with it. Eat some more or something, man.”</p><p>“Hair twisted and some other. I’m loving it though. He’s looking good, feeling good. Got to throw with him a lot this offseason, so he’s looking good.”</p><h2><b>Tyreek Hill talks about Waddle getting an extension</b></h2><p>Another player that was happy to see <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/dolphins-best-rookie-sleeper-to-make-impact-in-2024-nfl-season">Waddle get paid was fellow</a> receiver Tyreek Hill which the duo has been considered by many to be the best in the NFL. Hill would talk about witnessing the Alabama product’s development from just starting as a “young pup,” even comparing himself to the young receiver.</p><p>“It’s great. It’s been awesome, man. Just to see his whole development from where he’s come from, because when I first got here, there were a lot of things that needed to be cleaned up. I was the same way too though – young pup, very explosive, fast, could move with some of the best of them,” Hill said. “But as far as with Jaylen (Waddle), he’s done a great job of taking on some of the things I’ve been telling him, and we have such a tremendous receiver coach in Wes Welker that he’s been listening to him also. Just to see him get paid, just to see him get recognized as one of the top guys in this league is awesome. It’s fun. Now his new nickname from me is 28. Every time I see him, I say, ‘What’s up, 28?’ It’s fun.”</p><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/what-jaylen-waddles-84-million-contract-extension-means-wide-receiver-market">The Dolphins offense was very explosive</a> last season with Hill and Waddle being the dynamic duo that led to Tagovailoa leading the league in passing with 4,624 yards. Hill has no doubt helped Waddle become a better player as even the newly paid star calls him his “big bro.”</p><p>“Tyreek (Hill) has been great. That’s my big bro,” Waddle said via the team. “He helps me in all type of ways, off the field, on the field. Just really letting me be by his side and learn from him and he’s really able to teach me what makes him him.”</p><h2><b>Hill dealing with his own contract situation with Miami</b></h2><p>Besides Waddle and Tagovailoa, add Hill to that list of contract situations <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/vikings-news-justin-jefferson-agrees-historic-140-million-contract-extension">as the Dolphins superstar could</a> be lookin for a pay raise with other receivers getting huge deals like just recently with Justin Jefferson. However, he would not go too much into detail saying that he is “going to let my agent do his job.”</p><p>“About the contract situation, I’m going to let my agent do his job. That’s his job,” Hill said. “His job is to be great at that, and my job is to obviously to come out here and continue to do whatever I can to help this team win. Whether that’s a restructure, whatever the case may be, we want to make sure that it benefits both sides and I want to be able to help the team as much as I can. That’s as much as I can say about it.”</p><p>In any sense, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nfl-rumors-tyreek-hills-dolphins-contract-situation-draws-eye-opening-revelation">the Dolphins are looking to improve</a> after a relatively successful season going 11-6, though they didn’t win the division, and were eliminated in the first round by the Kansas City Chiefs. They will open next season on Sunday, Sept. 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
