Darren Waller News
Darren Waller returning soon · Dec 7, 2022
Week 15 is a realistic expectation for Darren Waller to return to the field
In what has been a putrid year at the tight end positions outside of Travis Kelce, Waller has followed suit by missing 10 games himself following week 14. Turning 31 years of age near kick-off of the 2023 season, Waller's lost season has been a point of frustration for dynasty owners and the fade started early in 2021. On the wrong side of 30 and with an uninspiring production curve over the past two years, it's fair to wonder if DLF's TE8 is best served as a sell-high option before his value further erodes.
Darren Waller placed on IR · Nov 11, 2022
The Raiders have placed Darren Waller on IR due to a hamstring injury
Waller's nagging hamstring injury has turned him into a mega-bust for 2022 and the only remaining optimism is found in the potential of him now being able to get healthy for a role in fantasy playoffs. At 30 years-of-age and having compiled a 167/175/1 stat-line through week nine, Waller's DLF TE7 ranking remains under-pressure and will likely continue to erode.
Darren Waller won't return · Oct 11, 2022
Darren Waller left Monday night's game early with a hamstring injury.
Not good. Waller left in the first quarter and then quickly headed to the locker room. The veteran tight end came out of halftime in street clothes. Waller is the TE6 in the DLF rankings but had been trending down before the injury. Back up tight end Foster Moreau was inactive with a knee injury, leaving Jesper Horsted atop the depth chart for the Raiders.
Darren Waller signs extension · Sep 10, 2022
The Raiders have signed tight end Darren Waller to a three-year extension worth $51 million.
Waller had a down season in 2021, posting a 55/655/2 line in 11 games, but most dynasty owners remember his back-to-back monster seasons in 2019 and 2020. The extension will keep Waller under team control for the next five seasons and pay him as one of the top tight ends in the league. There is some concern about our TE6 based on his age (29), but it's hard to argue the production when healthy. With Davante Adams in town, Waller should be able to find his spots more consistently and is poised for a bounce-back season. He remains a prime trade candidate for contenders in dynasty leagues.
