Darren Waller - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Makes one catch in Week 8 Waller corralled one of two targets for 11 yards during last Thursday's 27-19 loss at Green Bay.

Impact Waller has been hit or miss from a fantasy perspective this season, with two touchdown grabs in Week 2 in Atlanta and a 50-yard TD catch in Week 7 against the Buccaneers serving as the notable performances. Otherwise, he has one 50-yard effort in his five other appearances, sitting on a 15-209-3 line on 25 targets on the season. Waller next takes aim at the tough Broncos defense this coming Sunday.

Back in end zone during loss Waller brought in one of two targets for a 50-yard touchdown in the Panthers' 43-13 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Impact Waller's one catch not only netted Bryce Young his only passing touchdown of the day, but it also generated team-high receiving yardage. The veteran tight end's splash play naturally was a boon for his fantasy managers, but Waller has seen just four targets over the last two games after opening the season with multiple catches in each of the first four contests. Waller will take a 14-198-3 line into a Week 8 road matchup against the Packers on Thursday.

Quiet in Week 6 win Waller failed to catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 25-14 win over the Eagles.

Impact Waller dealt with a toe injury during the practice week and ended up playing behind both Tommy Tremble and Mitchell Evans in this one, as Tremble was the big producer in the box score, catching a pair of red-zone touchdowns. Waller is one of the many touchdown-or-bust fantasy options at the tight end position.

Good to go Waller (toe) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Philadelphia.

Impact Waller should be fine to handle his usual role after upgrading to full practice participation Friday. He was limited Wednesday and Thursday, coming out of a Week 5 bye.

Limited again Thursday Waller (toe) remained limited at Thursday's practice.

Impact Waller has registered back-to-back limited practice sessions coming out of Carolina's Week 5 bye. The veteran TE could avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Eagles but ramping up his participation level to full Friday. Tommy Tremble (ribs) has also opened Week 6 prep with consecutive limited practices, but both Waller and Tremble seem likely to suit up Sunday, as neither has missed a game this season.

OCTOBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Tending to toe injury Waller was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate due to a toe injury.

Impact Waller has been a regular part of the Panthers' passing game this season, sitting on a 13-148-2 line on 19 targets through four contests. Coming out of the team's Week 5 bye, though, both Waller and fellow TE Tommy Tremble (ribs, LP) are tending to injuries, leaving some question marks in the position group. Practices Thursday and Friday likely will determine if either of them enters the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game at Philadelphia.

Held to three catches on SNF Waller caught three of six targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 32-26 win over the Lions.

Impact Waller finished second on the Panthers in targets and was one yard behind John Metchie for second on the team in receiving yards, but Tetairoa McMillan (14 catches for 192 yards and two TDs on 16 targets) was the clear No. 1 option in the passing game as the Panthers played without starting wide receiver Jalen Coker (quadriceps). The Lions had given up a league-high six touchdowns to tight ends entering play Sunday, but Waller was unable to add to that total. Waller and the Panthers will be on bye in Week 5 before facing the Eagles in Week 6.

Impact Waller continued to click frequently with Bryce Young, leading the Panthers in receptions and targets while finishing second in receiving yards with totals that all qualified as season highs. The veteran tight end has proven to be a seamless fit in head coach Dave Canales' offense, recording 10 receptions for 112 yards and two touchdowns on 13 targets over the first three games. Waller should continue to fill a prominent role in a Week 4 home matchup against the high-powered Lions next Sunday night.
