From the episode
Jalen Waddell, then much more. 19 yards, not it? Sean Payton told his wife. I'm a big believer in happy wife, happy life, right? Of course. I kiss Beth's butt all the time because it makes my life better. Happy wife, happy life. But Sean Payton told his wife famously. This story was told to us on Monday Night Football. Sean Payton famously told his wife to draft Jalen Waddell in fantasy. Well, so far this year, he's basically had one good game. He's been under 20 receiving yards in three out of five games. You see it there on his screen. He's had one game. They've had one game with more than 15 fantasy points, three games under seven fantasy points where he's just absolutely killed you. The week two game against the Jags when he went eight for 138, that was his one really great game.
STACKED’s take
Negative signalProjection
Waddle has one good game (8/138 vs. Jags); under 20 yards in 3 of 5 games.
Jalen Waddle has been a major disappointment through five weeks, with only one strong game (Week 2 vs. Jacksonville: 8 catches, 138 yards). He has been under 20 receiving yards in three of five games and has produced only one game with more than 15 fantasy points, with three games under 7 fantasy points. Matthew Berry notes that Sean Payton famously told his wife to draft Waddle in fantasy, but the receiver has failed to deliver on that recommendation.
