Miami Dolphins DFS Spin
Jaylen Waddle (ankle) is not on Miami’s final Wild Card injury report against the Bills. Waddle was upgraded to a full practice on Friday after two limited sessions on Wednesday and Thursday. There was never much doubt he’d play on Sunday. There is, however, a real question about how fantasy-effective he and Tyreek Hill can be while dealing with Skylar Thompson under center. Miami will try to figure out a way to get their top two receivers involved.
Buffalo Bills DFS Spin
Stefon Diggs caught 7-of-10 targets for 104 yards and a touchdown in Buffalo’s Week 18 win over the Patriots. Diggs ends the regular season with a 108/1,429/11 line, outperforming his 2021 despite playing in one fewer game. He has now made the Pro Bowl three straight years since getting traded to Buffalo. With the win, Buffalo locked up the No. 2 seed and will play Miami in the Wild Card round. Diggs was held to 60 yards on five catches by Dolphins CB Xavien Howard when Buffalo played Miami in Week 15.
