Won't play Sunday Waller (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's season opener against the Colts, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Impact Per Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN, Waller suffered a hip strain this week, and the injury setback will be enough to sideline the tight end in Week 1. In Waller's absence versus Indianapolis, fellow TEs Julian Hill and Tanner Conner are in line for added opportunities, while Greg Dulcich and Hayden Rucci are potential practice-squad elevations.

Miami Dolphins injury report: Darren Waller (hip) at Colts; James Daniels now questionable Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller has a hip injury entering the season opener at the Indianapolis Colts

Injury setback clouds Week 1 status Coach Mike McDaniel revealed Friday that Waller (hip) suffered a setback before Thursday's practice, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Impact As a result, Waller didn't take part in Thursday's session and at this stage McDaniel says he doesn't believe the tight end will play Sunday against the Colts, a notion that could be confirmed when Friday's final Week 1 injury report is posted. If Waller is ruled out, Julian Hill and Tanner Conner would be next up for Miami's tight end reps this weekend.

Darren Waller's surprise status leaves Dolphins fans totally confused The Miami Dolphins are sitting on Darren Waller, but a new injury designation has many wondering what is really going on.

SEPTEMBER 5, 2025 • PHINPHANATIC.COM

Officially misses practice Thursday Waller (hip) did not practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said Waller's absence from practice Wednesday was merely part of a planned schedule, as he hadn't practice three consecutive days since his return from retirement, and that the veteran tight end would be back on the field Thursday. It's thus possible that his current 'DNP' status represents a setback of some sort, especially given that Waller is being listed with a hip injury. Miami said throughout the preseason that a cautious approach was being deployed simply for conditioning purposes. Friday's practice represents Waller's last chance to get some on-field work in before the Dolphins decide whether he'll carry an injury designation for Week 1, and at this stage he appears uncertain for Sunday's road opener against Indianapolis.

Not spotted at Thursday's practice Waller (hip) is not present for the early portion of Thursday's practice open to the media, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Impact Waller didn't practice Wednesday, but coach Mike McDaniel said the veteran tight end was expected to be at least a limited participant Thursday. He could still take the field for drills, but if Waller is officially limited as a non-participant on Thursday's injury report it could be an indication he's suffered some sort of setback. Julian Hill and Tanner Conner are Miami's only available backups at tight end heading into Sunday's road matchup against the Colts.

Listed as non-participant Wednesday Waller (hip) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Impact Waller is officially listed with a hip injury, though coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that the veteran tight end hasn't had any injury setbacks and is simply on a ramp-up schedule, per Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site. McDaniel said Waller, who missed time early in training camp while working on his conditioning, will retake the practice field Thursday. Waller still appears on track for Sunday's regular-season opener on the road at Indianapolis, but how extensive a snap share he'll be ready for Week 1 remains to be seen.

Participates in team drills Waller took part in team drills at Wednesday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Waller continues to ramp up his participation level at practice ahead of Miami's regular-season opener on the road versus Indianapolis on Sunday, Sept. 7. It will bode well for Waller's odds of handling a full starting snap share Week 1 if he can continue handling full practice reps, including team drills, without any limitations or breaks. Tyreek Hill (oblique) and De'Von Achane (calf) are not practicing Wednesday, but the Dolphins appear to anticipate both players being available versus the Colts.
