Back with Miami on practice squad
The Dolphins signed Conner to the practice squad Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Conner was waived by the Dolphins on Thursday, but he has opted to stay in Miami as a member of the team's practice squad. He logged nine catches (on 15 targets) for 91 yards through the Dolphins' first nine games of the regular season, and he would be be a candidate for elevation to the active roster should Miami require additional depth at tight end.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Conner has yet to record his first NFL reception, but he did contribute on special teams (152 snaps) across 13 games in his rookie campaign last year. Despite the Dolphins' tight end room being reshuffled, Conner still lacks anything resembling a clear path to offensive opportunities, unless it's as a rotational blocker.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be top TE again Week 2
Conner could serve as Miami's top pass-catching tight end against the Patriots in Week 2, as Alain Poupart of SI.com reports that Darren Waller remained a non-participant in practice Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Waller sat out Week 1 against the Colts due to a hip injury, and Conner had four targets in Waller's absence, while Julian Hill wasn't targeted. After back-to-back missed practices from Waller to begin Week 2 prep, the veteran seems unlikely to make his Dolphins debut Sunday, so Conner's likely to maintain his role from the season opener.
