Game Summary In a preseason matchup between the Miami Dolphins and the Atlanta Falcons, wide receiver Dee Alford proved that he belongs in the NFL with a spectacular 79-yard punt return for a touchdown. The Falcons dominated the Dolphins, with Breon Borders adding insult to injury by intercepting Skylar Thompson and returning it for a 26-yard touchdown. The Dolphins' offense struggled, with backup quarterbacks Thompson and Mike White failing to make an impact. The Falcons' Logan Woodside stood out, completing 14 of 22 passes for 146 yards. The Dolphins' red zone woes continued as they went 0 for 3 in scoring opportunities.
McAlister's Deli Quick Bites - Tua Tagovailoa (owned by droppinbombs88): Tagovailoa watched the game from the sideline as the Dolphins' regular starters didn't suit up. Although he praised the competition from the Falcons, he didn't have a chance to make any fantasy impact in this game. - Jaylen Waddle (owned by pattysrevenge): Waddle suffered a midsection injury during practice and missed the game. The Dolphins don't expect him to be out for an extended period of time. - Bijan Robinson (owned by droppinbombs88): The rookie running back, drafted eighth overall by the Falcons, didn't play in this preseason matchup, leaving fantasy owners eager to see his potential.
Free Agent Spotlight DeMarcco Hellams, the Falcons' rookie safety, showed his skills by recording a team-high seven tackles, a pass breakup, and an interception. As a seventh-round pick, Hellams made a notable impact on the game and could be a potential free agent pickup for fantasy owners looking for a sleeper defensive player.
