  Saints | New Orleans lets go of 12 players    Fri Aug 30, 06:10 PM

New Orleans Saints OT Fisayo Awolaja, WR Simmie Cobbs, WR Travin Dural, WR Cyril Grayson, DE Corbin Kaufusi, LB Drew Lewis, LB Darnell Sankey and FB Shane Smith were waived Friday, Aug. 30. The team also released TE A.J. Derby, DE Geneo Grissom, OG Ryan Groy and RB Jacquizz Rodgers.

Footballguys view: Cobbs, Dural, and Grayson have been on and off of rosters during their short careers and could catch on a practice squad.

  Saints | A.J. Derby joins Saints    Wed Aug 7, 12:05 PM

Free-agent TE A.J. Derby (Dolphins) signed an undisclosed deal with the New Orleans Saints Wednesday, Aug. 7. OL Nate Wozniak was waived.

Footballguys view: Derby has failed to impress with a few teams in the NFL. He's providing them with a camp body and only veteran depth if he makes the 53-man roster.

  Dolphins | Miami's Week 13 injury report    Fri Nov 30, 03:25 PM

Miami Dolphins WR Danny Amendola (knee) and C Travis Swanson (ankle) did not participate in practice Friday, Nov. 30, and are listed as doubtful for Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills.

McDonald (knee), QB Ryan Tannehill (shoulder) and OT Laremy Tunsil (knee) were full participants in practice Friday and no longer appear on the injury report.

Footballguys view: Parker might be a game-time decision. If he can go, he'll be one of the Dolphins primary pass catchers with Amendola likely out.

  Dolphins | Week 12 injury report for Miami    Fri Nov 23, 12:44 PM

Miami Dolphins WR Jakeem Grant (Achilles') did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 12 against the Indianapolis Colts. WR Danny Amendola (hamstring), TE A.J. Derby (foot, knee), DT Davon Godchaux (shin), OT Ja'Wuan James (knee), OL Ted Larsen (neck) and T.J. McDonald (knee) were limited in practice Friday, Nov. 23, and are listed as questionable.

WR DeVante Parker (shoulder) was not given an official designation but also has been removed from the injury report.

Footballguys view: Drake and Parker being removed after having non-contact jerseys on is a good sign if you have to rely on them this week. Amendola should be a WR3/Flex consideration in PPR as long as he is active.

  Dolphins | A.J. Derby day-to-day    Wed Aug 1, 06:20 PM

Miami Dolphins TE A.J. Derby (foot) is considered day-to-day because of his foot injury, according to head coach Adam Gase.

Footballguys view: Derby couldn't make it through the year last season with the Broncos even though he ended 2017 as their leading tight end in terms of catches and yards. He's getting another start with his third team now (Patriots, Broncos, Dolphins) in just a few years. Derby is a 'F' tight end, meaning he's a receiving threat but don't ask him to block.

  Dolphins | A.J. Derby sits out    Sun Jul 29, 06:41 PM

Miami Dolphins TE A.J. Derby (foot) did not participate in practice Sunday, July 29, because of a foot injury.

Footballguys view: Derby is one of the main obstacles between second-round pick Mike Gesicki and playing time and targets. If this is a lingering injury, it could give the rookie a chance to build momentum with the first team.

  Dolphins | MarQueis Gray, A.J. Derby work with starters    Thu Jul 26, 02:16 PM

Miami Dolphins TEs MarQueis Gray and A.J. Derby were on the field with the first-team offense Thursday, July 26, when the team lined up in a two-tight end set.

Footballguys view: The Dolphins will do a lot of that, and both are decent blockers but not great pass catchers. We are waiting for rookie Mike Gesicki to get a shot, though his blocking leaves much to be desired.

  Dolphins | Several TEs work with starters    Fri Jun 15, 04:14 PM

Miami Dolphins TEs Mike Gesicki, A.J. Derby, MarQueis Gray, Durham Smythe and Gavin Escobar all received snaps with the first-team offense during offseason workouts.

Footballguys view: The Dolphins don't have a clear picture at the TE position. Derby is an interesting 'F' tight end who can be used as a receiver only. Gesicki, the rookie second-round pick from Penn State, is also an 'F' tight end and a larger target than Derby...and likely more athletic. He can be groomed as the TE of the future, but Gesicki may take some time to develop in the pros. Gray is a physical player with surprising athleticism (former quarterback), while Smythe (2018 fourth-round pick) is your traditional 'Y' tight end with an all-purpose skill set.

  Dolphins | A.J. Derby a weapon as a receiver    Thu May 31, 10:31 PM

Miami Dolphins TE A.J. Derby has 'a natural receiving skill set' but needs to develop as a blocker, according to tight ends coach Shane Day.

Footballguys view: Derby has been cast off from two teams (Patriots, Broncos) so far during his short pro career. The Dolphins picked him up last year after Denver got rid of him...even though he was the Broncos leading tight end (even to end the season). Don't ask him to block, but Derby can make 'wow' catches. We'll see if he can hold off rookie Mike Gesicki for the top spot on the depth chart.

  Dolphins | A.J. Derby could make team    Wed May 9, 09:18 PM

Miami Dolphins TE A.J. Derby has a solid chance to make the 53-man roster because the Dolphins believe he can be an asset in the passing game.

Footballguys view: Derby is strictly a receiving tight end. He led the Broncos tight ends in receiving even though he didn't finish the year in Denver and was waived at the end of November 2017. Derby should not be asked to block much, but he can get open against linebackers in space.

  Dolphins | A.J. Derby claimed by Dolphins    Wed Nov 29, 05:16 PM

The Miami Dolphins claimed TE A.J. Derby off waivers from the Denver Broncos Wednesday, Nov. 29, according to a source.

Footballguys view: A bit of gamesmanship here as Derby was waived by the Broncos...the next opponent for the Dolphins. We doubt Derby can get ready in time to play this week, but this is something to monitor in dynasty formats. He'll serve as a backup to Julius Thomas when up to speed in the offense.

  Broncos | A.J. Derby waived from IR    Tue Nov 28, 07:25 PM

Denver Broncos TE A.J. Derby (shoulder) was waived from the Reserve/Injured list Tuesday, Nov. 28.

Footballguys view: The Broncos have moved on from the disappointing Derby with Austin Traylor taking over as their primary pass-catching tight end.

  Broncos | A.J. Derby set free    Sat Nov 18, 12:19 PM

Denver Broncos TE A.J. Derby (shoulder) was waived with an injury designation Saturday, Nov. 18. TE Austin Traylor was promoted from the practice squad in a corresponding move.

Footballguys view: Derby did next to nothing after the Broncos traded for him last season. A sixth-round pick out of Arkansas in 2016 (Patriots), Derby plays like a wide receiver and isn't good at blocking. With his receiving ability, there might be a team willing to take a chance on him now that he's hit the open market. Traylor is a big body, and while he has decent hands, we're not expecting much from him now that he's been called up. He should play as a backup behind Virgil Green on Sunday.
