NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Dolphins “hope” Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) is able to play in Week 2 against the Bills.

Waddle will test out his shoulder in warmups before being clear for action. He briefly left the Dolphins’ Week 2 loss to the Patriots to be checked out by trainers but returned to the game and wasn’t listed on Monday’s injury report. He was then added as a limited participant on Tuesday and Wednesday. It sounds like the Dolphins are just being cautious with a receiver known for laboring through injuries, but fantasy managers will want to check Miami’s inactives 90 minutes before kickoff to be sure. If Wadle can’t suit up, second-year wideout Malik Washington would be in line for No. 2 receiver duties.
