Quinshon Judkins scored three touchdowns, helping the Cleveland Browns break a three-game losing streak with a 31-6 win over the Miami Dolphins

Won't return Sunday Waller (pectoral) won't return to Sunday's game against the Browns.
Impact Prior to his exit, Waller didn't record a catch. In his absence, Julian Hill and Tanner Conner will handle Miami's TE duties versus Cleveland. Waller's next chance to see game action will be next Sunday against the Falcons.

Exits with injury Sunday Waller is questionable to return to Sunday's game versus the Browns due to a pectoral injury.
Impact Waller did not record a reception before he was ruled questionable to return just before halftime, and it's unclear exactly when or how he was forced to exit. In the 33-year-old's absence, Julian Hill should fill in as Miami's TE1 for the time being.

Good to go against Browns Waller (hip/rest) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Browns, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Impact Waller was limited in all three of Miami's practices but avoided an injury designation. The 33-year-old tight end's practice reps have been managed throughout the season, but Waller has been effective on game days. Since making his Dolphins debut in Week 4, Waller has compiled a three-game touchdown streak, producing 10 catches for 117 yards and four touchdowns on 12 targets.
OCTOBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Another limited practice Waller (hip/rest) was limited in practice Thursday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Impact Waller has consisted had his practice reps capped this season as part of a load management plan, so there's not yet any reason to worry that his availability for Sunday's game against the Browns is truly in jeopardy. Expect Waller to carry an injury designation for Week 7, but barring any actual setbacks the veteran tight end figures to take the field on the road versus Cleveland.

Dolphins, Browns look to get back on track when they meet on Sunday

The Miami Dolphins visit the Cleveland Browns on Sunday in a matchup of 1-5 teams desperately looking for a win
OCTOBER 16, 2025 • Associated Press
Limited Wednesday Waller (hip/rest) was limited in practice Wednesday, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.
Impact Waller continues to have his practice reps capped due to a load management plan, though his gameday workload has now increased in three consecutive weeks. The veteran tight end handled a season-high 69 percent of offensive snaps during Miami's loss to the Chargers in Week 6, securing two of three targets for 12 yards and a touchdown. Waller has scored in all three of his appearances with the Dolphins this season. He'll face a challenge to keep up that streak on the road against the Browns' vaunted defense on Sunday, though if Cleveland's pass rush forces Tua Tagovailoa to rely heavily on short-area passes, it could result in increased target volume for Waller.
OCTOBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Finds end zone despite low volume Waller brought in two of three targets for 12 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 29-27 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
Impact Waller was having a surprisingly forgettable day until the final minute of the contest, when he recorded a seven-yard touchdown grab in the right corner of the end zone with 46 seconds remaining to cap off a 13-play drive and erase a 26-20 deficit. The veteran tight end, who'd come into the day with an 8-105-3 receiving line over his first two games, would have therefore been the hero had Justin Herbert not driven the Chargers down for a game-winning field goal. Waller has now turned a whopping 40.0 percent of his 10 catches to date into touchdowns, and while regression is inevitable, he could be busy in a Week 7 road matchup against a Browns defense that could force the struggling Tua Tagovailoa to get the ball out quickly.

Cleared despite limited practices Waller (hip/rest) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Waller was a limited participant in practice Thursday and Friday after failing to practice Wednesday, but he'll be available for Sunday's game against the Chargers. The veteran tight end has thrived since recovering from a hip injury that sidelined him through Week 3, posting eight catches for 105 yards and three touchdowns across two games since making his Dolphins debut.

Limited in practice Thursday Waller (hip/rest) was limited at practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Waller was deemed a 'DNP' on Wednesday, but his return to a limited session Thursday has him trending toward being available Sunday against the Chargers, and quite possibly without a Week 6 injury designation, as was the case last week after the tight end logged three straight limited listings. With that in mind, it's worth noting that Furones previously relayed via Dolphins TEs coach Jon Embree that Waller is a candidate to continue to see an uptick in playing time after increasing from 16 to 32 snaps between his first and second game back from being sidelined Weeks 1-3.

2025 NFL Week 6 Picks: Best Bets for Every Game — Will's Wagers
Back at practice Thursday Waller (hip/rest) is participating in Thursday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Waller sat out practice Wednesday, though it seems he's simply continuing to have his reps managed. The veteran tight end ramped up his playing time Week 5, handling 58 percent of offensive snaps, and despite playing a part-time role across his two appearances thus far, he's managed to produce an impactful 8-105-3 receiving line on nine targets. With Tyreek Hill (knee) out for the year, Waller seems to have solidified himself as one of the focal points of Miami's offense, joining WR Jaylen Waddle and RB De'Von Achane. Waller will work to gain clearance for Week 6 and keep up his momentum at home against the Chargers on Sunday.

Listed as DNP on Wednesday Waller (rest/hip) was listed as a non-participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact It sounds like it was more of a rest day than anything else for the veteran tight end, who missed all of training camp and the preseason with the hip injury. After playing 27 percent of the offensive snaps in his Week 4 debut, Waller's playing time skyrocketed to 58 percent in Week 5. Through two games, Waller has a productive 8-105-3 receiving line on nine targets and has put himself in the fantasy TE1 conversation moving forward with Tyreek Hill (knee) done for the season.

Stays productive in Week 5 loss Waller secured all five targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 27-24 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.
Impact Waller made a splash with a two-touchdown effort in a Week 4 win over the Jets, a game that marked his first regular-season action since the 2023 season. With Tyreek Hill (IR, knee) going down for the season in that contest, Waller figured to see his opportunity rise exponentially beginning with Sunday's game, and that came to fruition. While the majority of the veteran tight end's production came in the first half, Waller still finished second in receptions and receiving yards for Miami on the afternoon while adding a four-yard scoring grab early in the second quarter. Waller figures to remain a key figure in the air attack during a Week 6 home matchup against the Chargers next Sunday.
