Dolphins Place Darren Waller on Injured Reserve

The Miami Dolphins placed tight end Darren Waller on injured reserve after he suffered a pectoral soft-tissue injury vs. the Cleveland Browns and did not return to that game. He will miss at least four games and is expected to be eligible to return after Miami's Week 11 bye, potentially Nov. 30 against the Saints. Waller, 33, came out of retirement this offseason and has 10 catches for 117 yards and a team-leading four receiving touchdowns despite limited snap counts. Miami promoted TE Greg Dulcich to the active roster, added TE Chris Myarick to the practice squad, and plans to increase snaps for Julian Hill and Tanner Conner. Coach Mike McDaniel described the injury as soft tissue and said it compounds other offensive injuries that have hampered the team's consistency.
