Raiders TE Darren Waller could hit several season milestones tonight

For a while there it was looking like Darren Waller was going to fall short of many of the receiving numbers he put up last season. But the new Pro Bowler has been on a tear lately and now is on the brink of hitting several season milestones.

Over the past three games, Waller has averaged ten catches for 142 yards and a touchdown in each game. Should he reach those numbers against the Dolphins tonight, he will hit triple digits in receptions and the millennium mark in yards.

Currently sitting at 93 catches for 967 yards and 8 touchdowns, he needs seven catches, 33 yards, and two touchdowns to reach 100 catches, 1000 yards, and 10 touchdowns.

He already surpassed his mark for receptions (90) and touchdowns (3) from last season. He just needs 179 receiving yards over the next two games to surpass his yards mark (1145) as well.

The next up for approaching a yards mark is running back Josh Jacobs who is 93 yards from a second 1000-yard season to start his career. He had 1150 last season in 13 games and has 907 through 13 this season, so he would need to really up his average this season over the next two games to have any shot to better his rookie yards numbers.

Derek Carr would need to average over 300 yards over the final two games to reach 4000 yards on the season.
