Despite all the cardio (82% route rate), you'd have to go back to 2024 to find the last time Denver's high-profile acquisition played a full allotment of snaps, but sat at a TPRR of 11% or less. And then there's the Bo Nix of it all.

Waddle's 11% target rate and Bo Nix's poor efficiency make Jacksonville a fade.

Despite a high route rate of 82%, Waddle sat at a target-play rate of 11% or less in Week 1—a mark you'd have to go back to 2024 to find the last time Denver's high-profile acquisition played a full allotment of snaps while posting such low usage. Bo Nix's performance compounds the issue: EPA per play ranked 31st, passing success rate 27th, and CPOE 28th. On 18 attempts of five air yards or less, the Broncos generated only 89 yards and four first downs, with other pass catchers keeping the offense moving. The source notes: 'I don't believe Waddle will sit as the fifth option in the passing game every week,' but the Week 2 matchup against Jacksonville remains a concern.
