For the first time since joining the team in 2022, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill was not named a captain heading into the 2025 campaign, according to ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques. It all likely stems from the Week 18 regular-season finale last year, when Hill removed himself from the game and hinted after the contest that he wanted to play elsewhere. The Cheetah apologized to his teammates last month, but it was not enough for them to vote him in as a captain this year. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa said in July that Hill had work to do to rebuild trust with his teammates. The All-Pro speedster dealt with a wrist injury all of last year and didn't post his typical gaudy numbers with Miami's offense struggling, and he returned to practice last week for the first time since early August due to an oblique injury. Hill is capable of bouncing back, but he's being drafted as more of a high-end WR2 in fantasy.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) is practicing on Monday, according to Travis Wingfield of MiamiDolphins.com. Hill missed time in training camp with an oblique injury, but Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel has said that he expects Hill to be ready for Week 1. The 31-year-old is looking for a bounce-back campaign after failing to reach 1,000 receiving yards last year for the first time since 2019. Hill looks like a borderline WR1/WR2 in fantasy who could hit big if he regains the form he had before 2024. However, the potential for age and/or injury-related regression adds significant risk to his profile.

David Furones of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reports that Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) is practicing on Thursday, per head coach Mike McDaniel. McDaniel said earlier on Thursday that Hill is expected to play in Week 1 of the regular season against the Indianapolis Colts despite missing a lot of training camp due to a nagging oblique injury. Now that the 31-year-old speedster is back on the field with another week until the season opener, it's safe to assume he'll be active on Sunday, Sept. 7. Although Hill was limited on Thursday, McDaniel said that "everything looks great." The Cheetah will slowly be ramped up going into next weekend as both he and the Dolphins offense look to bounce back from a disappointing 2024 campaign. Hill still has the skills to produce 1,000 yards for fantasy managers, but his value is tied to the health of oft-injured QB Tua Tagovailoa, putting him on the WR1/2 borderline.

Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said that wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) looks good for Week 1, per Travis Wingfield of MiamiDolphins.com. Hill has been limited throughout training camp due to an oblique injury and missed practice on Wednesday, but it appears the team anticipates him playing in the opener against the Indianapolis Colts. Hill played all 17 games for Miami in 2024, but he battled through a wrist injury and posted his fewest receiving yards per game (56.4) and lowest receiving touchdown total (six) since his rookie season. The 31-year-old profiles as a low-end WR1/high-end WR2 in fantasy, but the potential for age and injury-related regression makes him a somewhat risky selection in the early rounds.
Aug 28, 2025 11:01 AM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) did not take part in Wednesday's practice, according to Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald. Hill has only been on the field a handful of times this month due to a nagging oblique injury, but the Dolphins have remained optimitic that he'll be ready for Week 1 of the regular season on Sunday, Sept. 7, versus the Indianapolis Colts. Fantasy managers should be more alarmed about the 31-year-old speedster's Week 1 status if he still isn't practicing next week. Hill's lack of activity in training camp isn't endearing him to fantasy managers coming off a disappointing 2024 campaign, although the five-time All-Pro did still have 959 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 81 receptions. He's no longer a slam dunk as a WR1 in fantasy, with most of his fantasy value resting on the health of oft-injured quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) remained sidelined during Tuesday's practice session, according to Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post. The 31-year-old wideout has been dealing with a lingering oblique injury throughout most of August. Fantasy managers should continue to keep a close eye on his status, as he could be in danger of missing the start of the season. However, the Dolphins may be closely monitoring his workload, which is why he has been sidelined for most of the month. If Hill were to miss time, No. 2 wideout Jaylen Waddle would likely be given a large target share, serving as the clear alpha in the room. Last season, Hill had a down year by his standards as he caught just 81 passes for 959 yards, a stark drop from the 1,799 yards he tallied the previous season. When healthy, Hill profiles as a risky WR2, given his age and recent injury history.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) remains out of training camp practice on Wednesday and is unlikely to return to the field until the regular season, according to Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald. Hill has barely been on the field since suffering an oblique injury in early August. There has been no indication that the 31-year-old speedster is in danger of missing Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts, but fantasy managers have to be at least a little bit concerned about the Cheetah, especially with reports swirling that his chemistry with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa hasn't been great. The eight-time Pro Bowler still had 959 receiving yards and six touchdowns on 81 catches in 2024 in his third year with Miami, but it was his fewest receiving yards since 2019. He dealt with a wrist issue all year and has slipped to a low-end WR1/high-end WR2 in RotoBaller's 2025 rankings.
Aug 20, 2025 12:51 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) did side work on the JUGS machine but was not a participant during the team's practice on Tuesday, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. Hill's oblique injury is not expected to threaten his availability for the start of the regular season. The 31-year-old has not had the greatest training camp as he looks to rebound from a down 2024 season. In addition to injury, Hill's chemistry with Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has reportedly been suspect. Hill profiles as a low-end WR1/high-end WR2 in fantasy, but one with significant variance in his possible outcomes. If Hill rediscovers his prior form, he could smash his ADP. However, if Miami's offense struggles or Hill deals with injuries and/or age-related decline, he could be a massive bust.

Following a tumultuous offseason, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) has yet to reestablish a working chemistry with his quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa.. Hill has not caught passes consistently for months due to the wrist injury he played with for the entirety of the 2024 season. When things are going right for Hill, he has been a locked-in WR1. However, coming off his worst year since his rookie season, the hope coming into 2025 was that he and Tagovailoa could once more find the connection that helped him to put up over 1,700 yards in each of his first two seasons in Miami. According to Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald, that connection has been lacking both on and off the field. Hill is currently RotoBaller's WR13, but with each day that passes without positive news coming out of the Dolphins' camp, drafters will need to think hard about the amount of risk they are willing to shoulder in making him their WR1 or WR2.
Aug 18, 2025 9:18 AM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) will not practice on Thursday despite a strong push to return to the field, according to ESPN's Daniel Oyefusi. Hill is dealing with an oblique injury that has kept him limited or out of training camp practices for the last two weeks. "If Tyreek didn't have to answer to anybody, he would have practiced yesterday -- and I fear we might be talking about an injury that's a lot longer term," McDaniel said. "I'm just happy that our training staff understood the magnitude of further or bigger aggravation of something and was proactive." The Dolphins are trying to protect the speedy wideout from himself so that he'll be 100% for the start of the regular season. The Cheetah had a down year by his standards in 2024 with an 81-959-6 line but also dealt with a wrist issue all season. A bounce-back is possible, but it also depends on whether quarterback Tua Tagovailoa can stay healthy.
Aug 14, 2025 12:16 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) is back for a joint practice against the Detroit Lions, according to Pride of Detroit's Jeremy Reisman. The 31-year-old is coming off an 81-catch, 959-yard season that was both still productive and a clear step back from four straight years in which he cleared 1,200 receiving yards. When healthy, though, Hill still has WR1 potential as the top option for Miami's passing game.
Aug 13, 2025 10:33 AM EST
Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said he was unsure if wide receivers Tyreek Hill (oblique) and Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) will take part in joint practices with the Detroit Lions this week and called them both "day-to-day." Both Hill and Waddle didn't play in the preseason opener on Sunday against the Chicago Bears, but they are reportedly dealing with minor injuries and should be just fine for the Week 1 regular-season opener in early September. Still, they are both losing out on valuable repetitions this summer with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa as Miami's offense looks to bounce back in 2025. Don't be surprised if the Dolphins hold out Hill and Waddle for the second preseason game this Saturday against Detroit. With both receivers sidelined, it will give more opportunities to Malik Washington, Erik Ezukanma, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Dee Eskridge.
Aug 12, 2025 1:13 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill (oblique) and Jaylen Waddle were not dressed for pre-game warmups and are not expected to play in the team's preseason opener on Sunday against the Chicago Bears, according to David Furones of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. Hill dealt with a wrist injury pretty much all of last season and has been tending to an oblique injury during training camp. The injury isn't believed to be very serious, but it's worth watching for the 31-year-old veteran pass-catcher after he put up an 81-959-6 line in 2024, which was disappointing by his standards. With Miami's top two receivers sitting this one out, Malik Washington, Erik Ezukanma, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Dee Eskridge and others will see more opportunities in the preseason opener.
Aug 10, 2025 1:12 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (oblique) was present but not suited up at Friday's practice as he manages an oblique injury, per head coach Mike McDaniel. The team is exercising caution with the star wideout, and Hill is expected to return soon as he ramps up for Week 1. In his absence, Malik Washington, Erik Ezukanma, and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine should see increased reps with the first team. Hill is looking to bounce back from a relatively down 2024 season, where he totaled 81 receptions for 959 yards and six touchdowns, well below his typical production.
Aug 8, 2025 12:00 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (undisclosed) returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's practice due to an undisclosed injury, according to Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post. Schad notes that Hill "mostly worked on lower-body stretching and sprinting" and was "moving well." Hill played through a wrist injury in 2024 that may have affected his performance, but it doesn't seem as though the injury that caused him to miss practice earlier this week is wrist-related. The 31-year-old played all 17 games for Miami last season but failed to reach 100 catches and 1,000 yards receiving for the first time since 2020. Hill profiles as a fringe WR1 with upside for fantasy managers heading into 2025.
Aug 7, 2025 5:11 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (undisclosed) is not at Wednesday's practice due to an undisclosed injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status in case this injury begins to linger. However, for the time being, Hill should be viewed as day-to-day. During the offseason, Hill underwent wrist surgery, but he has expressed he was fully healthy at the start of camp. Last season, the 31-year-old had a down year to his standard as he caught just 959 yards and six touchdowns on 81 receptions. However, in 2022 and 2023, Hill posted back-to-back 1,700+ yard campaigns serving as the top target in the Miami passing attack. Despite his age struggles last season, Hill is worth a look as a WR2 with upside as he should continue to be Tua Tagovailoa's top target throughout 2025.
Aug 6, 2025 10:11 AM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill said that he didn't fully understand the offense the first three years he was in town, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. It's a bit unbelievable, but it didn't stop the Cheetah from leading the league with 1,799 receiving yards, 13 touchdowns and 112.4 yards per game in 2023. The speedy 31-year-old dealt with a wrist injury all of last year and also wasn't helped by the fact that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa missed more time with a head injury. As a result, Hill fell short of the 1,000-yard mark (959 yards) for the first time since 2019 as Miami's offense was more dink-and-dunk than explosive. His fantasy stock entering 2025 is down as a result, especially given Tua's shaky injury history. However, the five-time All-Pro seems very motivated and could easily bounce back if Tagovailoa stays on the field. He's ranked at RotoBaller as the WR12.
Aug 1, 2025 5:52 PM EST
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa said that wide receiver Tyreek Hill rebuilding a relationship with him and the team is a "work in progress" after Hill said "I'm out" following the Week 18 regular-season finale last year. "When you say something like that you don't just come back with 'My bad.' You gotta work that relationship up. He is working on himself," Tagovailoa said. Hill commented on Tuesday saying that he's a changed man and motivated to be at his best in 2025. The Cheetah is saying the right things, but there could still be a rift between him and the rest of the club after he essentially quit on them late last season. Tua, Hill and the rest of the Dolphins are certainly capable of bouncing back after a disappointing 2024 campaign, but it will all depend on whether Tagovailoa can keep him out of harm's way.
Jul 23, 2025 11:35 AM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) is fully recovered from the wrist injury that bothered him in 2024 and lost weight over the offseason, according to Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network. The 31-year-old is coming off a down season by his lofty standards. In 17 games, he recorded 81 catches for 959 yards and 6 touchdowns. His yards-per-route-run dropped from 3.96 yards in 2023 to 1.98 yards in 2024. Before 2024, Hill had recorded at least 1,200 yards receiving in four consecutive seasons. His main target competition in Miami's wide receiver room is Jaylen Waddle, who is looking for a bounce-back season of his own. The Dolphins also heavily featured running back Devon Achane in the passing game last season, which cut into the workload for both Miami receivers. Hill could easily rebound to form now that he's back to full health, but he's a relatively risky selection in fantasy due to his age.
Jul 22, 2025 9:23 PM EST
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) divulged to ESPN's Marcel Louis-Jacques that he's shifted his mentality heading into 2025. "I want to see what it looks like when I just focus on football, on myself and family," Hill said Tuesday. "I feel like I haven't given the best version of Tyreek my whole entire career." They're encouraging words from the 31-year-old, who is still battling back from a wrist injury he suffered upon his Week 1 arrest in 2024. The wrist ailment, among other offensive troubles, shares the blame for his massive dip in production, from 1,799 yards the season prior to 959 yards. That Hill's wrist is still an issue warrants some monitoring, but tight end Jonnu Smith's departure should signify that the Fins will be more willing to rip it downfield in the upcoming season. He's currently a top 30 pick in ADP, and a bounceback campaign isn't out of the cards.
