If there's a reason for optimism, it's only been two weeks since Sean Payton took playcalling duties back from Davis Webb...Waddle leads all Broncos with 228 receiving yards and is nearly 100 yards ahead of the next-closest wide receiver (Pat Bryant, 133)...you cannot outright cut a talent like Waddle, but trusting him as an automatic weekly starter has become a massive liability...if he cannot deliver a ceiling game soon, he belongs firmly on your bench.

STACKED’s take

NeutralProjection

Waddle's redemption depends on Nix's willingness to throw downfield; bench him until a ceiling game emerges.

Waddle's redemption prospects hinge on Bo Nix eventually pushing the ball downfield; Sean Payton took playcalling duties back from Davis Webb two weeks prior, and the entire Broncos passing attack is underperforming rather than Waddle being specifically misused. Waddle leads all Broncos receivers with 228 yards and is nearly 100 yards ahead of the next-closest (Pat Bryant, 133). An upcoming matchup against the Cardinals offers slight optimism, but the source advises that Waddle cannot be trusted as an automatic weekly starter until he delivers a ceiling game; he belongs on the bench if he cannot produce soon.
