Miami

Dolphins

Chubb was a surprise addition to Friday’s report and was listed as limited. It’s never a good sign when a player is added to Friday’s report, so Chubb’s status will be one to watch when inactives are announced 90 minutes before kickoff. The veteran pass rusher has totaled 28 tackles, five sacks, and five TFLs this season after missing all of 2024 due to a torn ACL. If he’s unable to go on Sunday, veteran Matt Judon could see an uptick in snaps after playing in a limited role for most of the season. In addition to Chubb, the Dolphins also listed WR Dee Eskridge (shoulder) and CB Rasul Douglas (foot/ankle) as questionable for Week 11.

Robinson suffered a concussion in Week 9 and missed Week 10’s game against the Bills as a result. Now, after logging a full week of practice, Robinson will be good to go for Sunday’s game against the Commanders as the Dolphins look to win back-to-back games for the first time this season. Robinson has totaled eight tackles and one sack for the Dolphins this season and should see plenty of opportunities to get after Marcus Mariota with Jaelan Phillips now in Philly.

Gordon was also limited on Wednesday. He should be able to suit up this week, but Jaylen Wright ran as Miami’s RB2 in Week 10. Gordon’s ankle injury may have played a role in that, but the bad news is the ankle is still an issue. Neither Miami backup holds much fantasy value right now.

Gordon was active last week but only saw one carry. Jaylen Wright operated as the backup to De’Von Achane, seeing five rush attempts. With the backup role now undecided, neither Gordon nor Wright should be cracking any fantasy lineups this week.

Tagovailoa locked in on Jaylen Waddle in this game, peppering him with high-value targets. One of those attempts resulted in a 38-yard score over the top of the Buffalo defense. Two of his deep shots to Waddle, however, were easily intercepted by the Bills. Tua didn’t seem to care how many defenders were draped over Waddle. As long as his favorite target was downfield, Tua was comfortable giving him a shot at the big play. With Miami’s defense shutting down Josh Allen, the risky throws didn’t cost Tagovailoa in the long-run. They did allow him to reclaim the league lead in interceptions. Tua is up to 13 picks on the year. He will need to cut back on the mistakes if the Dolphins want to stay hot against the Commanders next week. Tagovailoa will be a low-end QB2 for Week 11.

Washington operated as the Dolphins’ No. 2 receiver once again and found the end zone for the second time in the past three weeks. The bad news is that his yardage ceiling remains in the basement. Washington has a season-high of 48 receiving yards and has topped 36 yards just once. He is a low-upside WR5 heading into a Week 11 game against the Commanders.

Ollie Gordon was active despite being listed as questionable due to an ankle injury. It seems like he was only available as the third-stringer, with Wright out-carrying him 5-1. Neither back has done much behind De’Von Achane this year. Fantasy managers can ignore the RB2 role on this team heading into Week 11.

Waddle broke free for a 34-yard score in the first quarter, bringing down a deep ball from Tua Tagovailoa in the back of the end zone. Tua made long shots to Waddle his focal point today, often to his own detriment. He tried to force two other deep throws to his star receiver that resulted in interceptions. Fantasy managers, however, won’t be complaining about Tua force-feeding his top wideout. Waddle has more than 80 yards in 5-of-6 games with Tyreek Hill out this year. He is pushing for a WR1 ranking heading into Week 11 against the Commanders.

Achane hadn’t done much going into the final eight minutes of the game. He then broke off a 59-yard score, putting the final nail in the coffin of Miami’s upset over the Bills. Not content with one home run, Achane broke free for a 35-yard score on the Dolphins’ very next drive. The second long score turned a great day into Achane’s best rushing performance since his famous 203-yard outing in his second career game. Achane has at least 91 yards from scrimmage in four straight games. He is firmly entrenched in the RB1 ranks for Week 11 against the Commanders.

Gordon suffered an ankle injury in week 9 but always looked likely to suit up for today’s game. As massive underdogs to Buffalo this week, the Dolphins aren’t likely to establish much of a ground game. Gordon is nothing more than an RB5. Inactive for the Dolphins are QB Quinn Ewers, S Ashtyn Davis, CB Rasul Douglas, OLB Chop Robinson, LB Andre Carter II, WR Dee Eskridge, and TE Julian Hill.
