Fins place TE Waller on IR with pectoral injury
"It was his fourth game of the season after missing the team's first three games with a hip injury he picked up in training camp. "It was soft tissue," Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Monday. "It's a situation that probably it would be living in hope to see him in the upcoming next weeks' games, but he'll be diligent. This means a lot to him, but that's kind of where I'm at with it right now with the information I have.""
"Waller made a splash in his season debut in Week 4 with three catches for 27 yards and two touchdowns. He followed it up the next week with 78 yards and a touchdown on five catches against the Carolina Panthers, all in the first half. He has recorded just two catches for 12 yards and a touchdown in two games since, however, as the Dolphins' passing offense has sputtered during their three-game losing streak."
Darren Waller suffered a pectoral soft-tissue injury in the first half of the game against the Cleveland Browns and was placed on injured reserve. He missed the first three games with a training-camp hip injury and had played four games this season before the pectoral issue. Waller produced multiple touchdowns and a 78-yard game earlier in the season but had limited production during a recent three-game Dolphins losing streak. He will be eligible to return in Week 12 after Miami's Week 11 bye. The Dolphins signed tight end Greg Dulcich from the practice squad to the active roster. Waller was traded to Miami in July and came out of a yearlong retirement to reunite with offensive coordinator Frank Smith.
