Miami Dolphins rookie Jaylen Waddle made an Atlanta Falcons defender look silly in a joint practice on Wednesday.
He effortlessly shook his defender before turning around for an easy completion.

Dolphins fans are likely going to be able to enjoy similar highlight-reel plays from Waddle for a very long time.
The wide receiver showcased his playmaking ability during his three seasons at the University of Alabama. Some of his time there was tainted by injuries, but during his collegiate career, he caught 106 passes for 1,999 yards and 17 touchdowns over 34 games.
With the Dolphins, Waddle has the luxury of playing alongside a former Alabama teammate in Tua Tagovailoa.
Fans are hoping that those two players will reestablish the sort of chemistry they had together in college. According to a recent report, it sounds like that might already be happening.
Connection with Tua Tagovailoa and Jaylen Waddle looks sweet out here. Chemistry starting to look reminiscent of Tuscaloosa. Waddle making several tough catches look routine today.
