Before being drafted with the 6th overall pick of the 2021 NFL Draft by the Dolphins, Waddle played college football at the University of Alabama following all-time great head coach Nick Saban. Since entering the NFL, Waddle has consistently produced impressive PFF scores every season.

During his sophomore season in 2022, Waddle had 75 receptions, 1,356 receiving yards, and 8 touchdowns, which amounted to an 83.9 PFF score. Last season in 2023, Waddle had 72 receptions, 1,014 receiving yards, and 4 touchdowns, which amounted to a 90.7 PFF score. Waddle is easily one of the NFL's best wide receivers, and it does not look like he will lose that standing anytime soon.
