Dolphins Front-Office Shake-Up Puts Jaylen Waddle’s Future in Play Before Deadline

Teams are expected to recheck Waddle’s status after Chris Grier’s firing.

Overview

  • Miami dismissed general manager Chris Grier and appointed Champ Kelly as interim GM days before the Nov. 4 NFL trade deadline.
  • Reporters say the Dolphins had fielded but declined trade calls on Jaylen Waddle under Grier, and clubs are now expected to follow up.
  • The Giants are repeatedly cited as a logical suitor after Malik Nabers’ season-ending ACL tear and their ongoing search for receiver help.
  • Waddle is in the early phase of a three-year, $84.75 million extension through 2028 with a potential out after 2027, shaping any trade calculus.
  • Waddle has 41 receptions for 586 yards and four touchdowns in nine games this season, and any potential deal remains unconfirmed as the deadline approaches.
