Jaylen Waddle (foot) Fully Practices Again Thursday

Waddle is not listed on the injury report for Week 4 after a second straight full practice.

Jaylen Waddle has put together back-to-back full practices, pointing toward an active status for Week 4. The Broncos wide receiver is no longer listed on the injury report for his upcoming matchup.

What happened

Waddle fully practiced again on Thursday, according to Underdog NFL. He was also not listed on the injury report for Week 4, clearing the way for him to play.

Context

The foot issue has not prevented Waddle from practicing this week. The 27-year-old has been Denver’s starting right wide receiver and has seen 69% of snaps through three games.

Waddle’s season has been a rollercoaster, per Field Yates. He caught 8 passes for 138 yards in Week 2, but was held to 2 catches for 10 yards in Week 3. Overall, he has 11 receptions for 150 yards on 20 targets this season.

What’s next

Waddle is expected to suit up in Week 4. The Broncos’ next game is the final checkpoint before kickoff, and no further limitations have been reported.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Waddle is a lock to play, so managers can start him without concern about the foot. However, his production has been volatile. The Week 2 explosion came on 10 targets, but he saw only 7 targets and produced 6.4 PPR points in Week 3. Denver’s offense has been inconsistent, and Waddle remains a boom-or-bust WR3/flex. In PPR leagues, he carries more value given his target volume, but he needs better efficiency to be trusted as a weekly starter. If you have a safer floor option, consider it. With Waddle healthy, he should see his usual snap share and remains a high-upside play in a plus matchup if Denver can get him the ball downfield.
