The Chicago Bears signed former Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford ahead of training camp. Ford, a two-time All-ACC standout at Virginia Tech, was drafted by the Miami Dolphins in the seventh round of the 2017 NFL Draft. In 32 games for the Fins from 2018 through 2021, Ford caught 63 passes for 681 yards and two touchdowns. Last year, he bounced between the Giants and Colts practice squads but didn't make an active roster. He joins a Bears team with 12 wide receivers already on its roster, led by DJ Moore and Darnell Mooney, where he will battle for a roster spot against Velus Jones, Nsimba Webster, and Daurice Fountain.
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford has barely been involved this season, but he made an impact in Week 15. Coming into this game, Ford had eight receptions on 12 targets, but he added to that total on Sunday. He hauled in all three of his targets for 51 yards in the win over the New York Jets. The absence of Jaylen Waddle likely pushed Ford into a bigger role. He made the most of his chances but is unlikely to be on the fantasy radar going forward. The Dolphins are hopeful that Waddle will return for the Week 16 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. That being said, Ford should fall out of the game plan, but it's worth noting that this was a solid performance by him. He won't be on the fantasy radar going forward.
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford was surprisingly involved in the Week 10 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Before this game, Ford had two receptions for 13 yards on the season. However, he hauled in all four of his targets for 84 yards in the win on Thursday. Finally, the Dolphins realized they have other options with DeVante Parker (hamstring) and Will Fuller (finger) sidelined. Sadly, fantasy managers shouldn't expect Ford to replicate this performance. He shouldn't be on the streaming radar for the Week 11 matchup with the New York Jets.
Miami Dolphins wide receivers Robert Foster and Isaiah Ford did not make the roster cut and were let go by the organization earlier this week. Both players were brought in with one year deals with a chance at making the team out of training camp. The Dolphins are fairly stacked at wide receiver and neither player had much of a chance at making the team. Both players will now look to land a roster spot elsewhere. Right now, DeVante Parker, Will Fuller, and Jaylen Waddle appear to be the focal point of the Dolphins passing attack.
The Miami Dolphins signed wide receiver Isaiah Ford to an undisclosed deal on Friday and waived safety Brian Cole and center Tyler Gauthier in corresponding moves. Ford was traded to the New England Patriots at last year's trade deadline, but he didn't play a single snap for them and was ultimately released. The 25-year-old has spent his entire three-year career with Miami, catching 51 passes for 520 yards. However, he'll just be competing for a roster spot in training camp in a crowded receivers room after Miami added Will Fuller and rookie first-rounder Jaylen Waddle. Ford is most likely ticketed for the practice squad.
Wide receiver Isaiah Ford had been traded from Miami to New England at the trade deadline, but after being placed on waivers, he has landed back with the Dolphins, where he is expected to join the team's practice squad. Ford has appeared in seven games this season with Miami, compiling 18 receptions for 184 yards. Having never taken the field with New England, Ford will continue developing with the one organization that he has appeared professionally with, although his fantasy intrigue is significantly capped until he begins to carve out a niche within the team's offense. Having logged two games this year with at least nine targets, any injuries to the Dolphins wideouts could immediately vault Ford into a sizable role, so keep an eye on the youngster over the final four weeks of the 2020 regular season.
The New England Patriots acquired wide receiver Isaiah Ford from the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday in exchange for a conditional sixth-round pick in 2022, according to a source. The Patriots are in need of some bodies at the receiver position with Julian Edelman (knee) on Injured Reserve and N'Keal Harry (concussion) missing the last two games with a head injury. Ford has 18 catches for 184 yards in seven games for Miami this year and has recorded 41 receptions on 65 targets for 428 scoreless yards in his three seasons in the NFL after being taken in the seventh round in 2017. The 24-year-old should see more opportunities in New England out of the slot in an offense desperate to pick things up on offense, but Ford is still not much more than a stash in deeper leagues.
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford saw a season-high 10 targets against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 4. Although, Ford was targeted only twice during the victory over the San Francisco 49ers last week. His fantasy value has been tough to predict this season, which means him hard to trust in fantasy leagues. Ford will get a favorable matchup against the New York Jets in Week 6. Although, it's unclear what his role is going to be in this game, so he'll only be worth a look in deep leagues.
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford was not able to do much damage during the Week 5 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. He hauled in both of his targets for 23 yards in the win. He was coming off a performance where he saw a season-high 10 targets, but wasn't able to do much here. He'll get a favorable matchup against the New York Jets. However, Ford can't be trusted in standard formats right now. He might be worth a look as a deep league streaming option after the bye week.
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford is coming off a performance where he saw a season-high 10 targets in Week 4. The Dolphins don't have many weapons on offense, but it appears they enjoy throwing in the direction of Ford. He hauled in four of those 10 targets for 48 yards in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Ford has some promising upside after seeing a high volume of targets last week. Sadly, he'll get a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 5. He could have some low-end PPR value, assuming the Dolphins throw his way again.
