  • Signs lucrative extension
    Waddle signed a three-year, $84.75 million contract extension with the Dolphins on Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. The deal includes $76 million guaranteed.

    Advice: Waddle is now one of the top five highest-paid receivers in the NFL with an annual salary of $28.25 million. The 2021 first-round pick has been dominant since entering the league, ripping off three straight seasons with 1,000-plus yards, including a 2022 campaign where he produced 1,356 yards and eight touchdowns across 17 regular-season games. The 25-year-old battled injuries last season but is fully healthy ahead of the 2024 campaign. Waddle is still the clear No. 2 receiver behind Tyreek Hill, but there's clearly room for both players to produce as the fastest receiving duo in the league. Rotowire.com Thursday, 7:17 am

  • Jaylen Waddle gets three-year extension from Fins
    Dolphins signed Jaylen Waddle to a three-year, $84.75 million extension.

    Advice: Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Waddle’s deal includes $76 million in guaranteed money, as the star receiver is now under contract through 2028. Waddle has been one of the most productive receivers in the league since being drafted in 2021, tallying up 3,385 yards and 18 touchdowns through his first three seasons. He’s managed to eclipse 1,000 yards in each of his first three seasons despite playing alongside Tyreek Hill for each of the last two years. Reaching a long-term deal with Waddle was a no-brainer for both sides, as the Dolphins get him under contract with two years still left on his rookie deal, and he’ll have a chance to earn another big deal after his age-30 season.
