The Miami Dolphins defense/special teams has been one of the hottest streaks in the league over the last three games. They've put together fantasy performances of 13 points or more in each one of these games. The latest, in Week 14, they were able to hold the Commanders to 15 points while collecting three sacks and a pick-six. Now, they're going up against a rookie quarterback and an offense that has given up 8.4 fantasy points per game to defenses. This unit can be considered a quality streaming option in Week 14.
Miami Dolphins tight end Durham Smythe (ankle) appears to be good to go for Monday's Week 14 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Smythe missed practice on Thursday, but was able to practice the next two days. That being said, the 28-year-old should be fine for this Monday Night matchup. This season, Smythe has 18 receptions for 178 yards and zero touchdowns. He has mainly been used as a blocker, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from him in this game.
Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders has now strung together three quality outings in a row as he's scored double-digit fantasy points in each one of them. In Week 13, he was able to make his lone field goal attempt, which was a 40-yarder, and make all six of his extra points. The Dolphins' offense is likely to turn in another big day against the Tennessee Titans so Sanders should be a beneficiary with plenty of extra point attempts. The Titans have also given up the second-most fantasy points to kickers this season. Sanders can be considered a high-level streaming option in this matchup.
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has seen his target share increase over the past five games and has turned that into two 100-yard games. He hasn't found the end zone since Week 8, however, and he still looks like a distant second to Tyreek Hill. The good thing about the Week 14 matchup is that the Titans are one of the weakest teams against opposing wide receivers as they give up 38.7 fantasy points per game in PPR formats. On top of that, the Titans have given up the fourth-most points per target to receivers. Waddle comes in as a WR2 again for this matchup.
Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert took a sizeable step back in opportunities in Week 13 as De'Von Achane took the lead back role. The veteran back saw 11 carries compared to Achane's 17 and it seems as though the team would like to get the rookie more involved to make sure that Mostert is healthy come playoff time. The Titans also have a solid run defense that only allows 18.5 fantasy points per game against opposing backfields. Mostert's week will likely be touchdown dependent and that wager doesn't seem to have great odds. He can be considered a borderline RB2/RB3.
