Day 2 – Miami Dolphins 2022 Training Camp Notebook

“Just his energy. He’s going to be the same guy each and every day on the field and off the field,” Jaylen Waddle said of Tyreek Hill. “He’s a high energy guy and he’s a great player. It’s fun to see him out here making plays.”

It’s only Day 2, but it feels like we’re inching towards the necessity of a disclaimer that we’ll be discussing these two players every day – copy and paste. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle bring an element of explosiveness to this Dolphins offense that could have a ripple effect of ramifications. It should help create space for other receivers, it should influence the way defenses play, and could help turn short catches into game-changing plays.

Hill caught a gorgeous, arching pass from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa early in practice for 40 yards, but through two days  both Hill and Waddle have both been active underneath.

1. Watching individual drills, Waddle comes off the line with a purpose and is gone in a flash. That showed in a team period today on a simple five-yard route. His quick release immediately threatened the cornerback, allowing Waddle to slam on the breaks and get himself open for an easy completion.

2. Tyreek and Tua have talked a lot about their chemistry this offseason and that is on display early at Dolphins camp.  During team drills, Tagovailoa ripped a throw down the field outside the hashmarks before Hill even broke off the route. The pass was on the money as Hill picked up another chunk gain.

It’s an absolute pleasure to watch.
