Waddell made his competitive debut for Dundee on 18 July 2017, against Raith Rovers in the Scottish League Cup, replacing Darren O'Dea after 82 minutes.[4] He went on to start Dundee's next three League Cup group stage matches, as the club progressed to the knockout rounds as runners-up to rivals Dundee United.[5] Waddell scored his first goals in his senior career in a 2–1 win against Hearts.[6]

Waddell moved on loan to Scottish Championship club Greenock Morton in July 2018.[7] On 14 November his loan spell was extended until the end of the season.[8] Waddell scored his first goal for the club with the opener as Morton defeated Peterhead in the Scottish Cup.[9]

On 30 June 2019, Waddell left Dundee following the expiry of his contract.[10]
