Following the arrival of head coach Mike McDaniel and superstars Tua Tagovailoa and Tyreek Hill, the future for the Miami Dolphins franchise has been incredibly bright, as many believe this team could be a legitimate Super Bowl title contender in the AFC for many years to come.
Although Hill gets a lot of attention for being in the conversation as the best wide receiver in the NFL, along with Justin Jefferson, Ja’Marr Chase, and others, Jaylen Waddle has proven to be one of the best wideouts in the league as well.
Waddle has only been in the league for three seasons now, but he’s already made a considerable impact in Miami as the sidekick to Hill in the receiving corps, and a player that helps make the Dolphins offense click on a weekly basis during the season.
Even though Waddle has only been with the Dolphins for a short time, he has had some memorable moments on the football field, including what he calls his favorite catch of his career thus far against the Baltimore Ravens in 2022, as he said on “The OGs Show” (via FinsXtra).
“I still don’t know how we [done] it,” Waddle said. “I had to watch that game like three or four times.”

Although his numbers in 2023 were down slightly from the best season of his career in 2022, Waddle has proven to be consistent for Miami, as he finished last season with 72 catches for 1,014 receiving yards and four touchdowns.
As long as Waddle, Hill, and Tagovailoa can stay healthy for the Dolphins, the sky is the limit in Miami.
