From the video
I just got to say, man, uh it is over for Jaylen Waddle, and that's okay. They clearly tried to get him going in this game. Seven targets, team lead in targets... 76% route participation, 24% targets per route run. Hey, those are all really good peripheral numbers. Guess what? That's basically the whole deal with Jaylen Waddle is the peripheral numbers are all basically fine and then the production is not coming... he did get banged up late in this game... I'm probably starting like Trey Tucker over Jaylen Waddle at this point.
STACKED’s take
Waddle's peripherals strong but production absent; late injury clouds outlook.
Mattek Fantasy Football declares 'it is over' for Waddle despite Miami's clear effort to get him involved; 7 targets (team lead), 84% snap share on 11 personnel, 76% route participation, 24% targets per route run—all strong peripherals—but production is not materializing. The source notes that Waddle's core issue is consistent: "the peripheral numbers are all basically fine and then the production is not coming." Waddle suffered a late-game injury (status unknown) and received only 32 dropbacks in Week 7, limiting opportunity. The source is considering benching him for Trey Tucker and questions whether Waddle can replicate his prior production under Bo Nicks and Sean Payton, who are not the same caliber of quarterback/coach as his former situation.
