This Will be the Jaylen Waddle Breakout Game

The Miami Dolphins travel across the pond to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa likely back on the field.

Tagovailoa is set to return after leaving the team's Week 2 game against the Buffalo Bills with a rib injury that has sidelined him since. With the second year pro back under center, he will need to get the ball in No. 6 pick Jaylen Waddle's hands.

Waddle has struggled since a 12-catch outing against the Raiders in Week 3, with only five catches over the last two games, but should receive a big target share against a porous Jaguars defense. Jacksonville is 26th in defensive pass success rate this season and I'm expecting Tagovailoa to find his former Alabama teammate early and often.

WynnBET Sportsbook has set Waddle's props at 4.5 receptions (Over -130/Under +100) and 54.5 receiving yards (Over -115/Under -115). While I'm inclined to go over the receiving yards, I'll play his receptions prop. Waddle should see an increased target share with No. 1 receiver Davante Parker out for the second straight game, and he has seen six or more targets in three of five games.

I'm not confident in Miami's vertical passing game, but I envision a lot of short routes for Waddle on Sunday to try and get him in space to rip off a big gain, pushing more towards the reception total. The total has gone up 2.5 points since opening, now sitting at 47, so there may be more points than expected in this one and I'm expecting Waddle to be involved heavily.
