Miami Dolphins wide receiver Mike Wallace (hamstring) participated in practice on a limited basis, according to the team's official website. Though Wallace has been dealing with the ailment all season long, he has yet to miss any significant playing time.
Mike Wallace probably worth a fantasy start despite injury
The Dolphins’ best wide receiver was limited in practice but should start in Week 6. We break down the fantasy implications.

Fantasy Impact: In four games this season, Wallace has found the end zone three times. That’s a good sign, considering the Dolphins don’t exactly boast the most prolific offense in the league. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill has struggled throughout the season, so Wallace’s ability to put up big numbers will probably be limited all year.
That’s especially true with his yardage and reception totals, which should be a red flag to his owners. Touchdowns aren’t something that can be counted on for fantasy production, because Wallace isn’t going to score every week.
Nevertheless, he’s still one of the best in the game at creating separation down the field, and he’s the best offensive weapon Miami has in the receiving game by far. Fantasy owners shouldn’t hesitate to start him, especially considering the team is coming off a bye week.
