Waddle's chest injury status to monitor; too talented to bench if active.

Waddle suffered a chest injury in Week 7's fourth quarter against the Cardinals and did not return. The source notes he is too talented to sit on fantasy benches if active, regardless of poor returns through the first seven weeks, and managers should track his status ahead of a divisional matchup against the Chiefs.
