Who Should I Start? Julian Hill or Jared Wiley

Friday, November 14, 12:05 PM

Miami Dolphins tight end Julian Hill (ankle) upgraded to a full practice on Friday and has been removed from the final Week 11 injury report, meaning he'll make his return on Sunday against the Washington Commanders in Madrid, Spain. Hill will put an end to a three-game absence due to an ankle injury, but fantasy managers can continue to look elsewhere. Darren Waller (pectoral) remains on Injured Reserve, but the 25-year-old Hill will be battling for limited targets with Greg Dulcich against Washington. Before his ankle injury, Hill had only 10 catches on 13 targets for 77 yards and no touchdowns. He is still looking for his first NFL touchdown after debuting for the Dolphins in 2023. Fantasy managers desperate at the TE position should be able to find better options on the waiver wire.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Jared Wiley (knee) is participating in individual drills at mandatory minicamp this week while wearing a brace on his surgically-repaired right knee. The fact that Wiley is even taking part in offseason workouts at all is pretty impressive after he suffered a torn ACL last November. The 24-year-old is doing well in his recovery, but he still may not be fully ready for training camp this summer or the start of the 2025 regular season in September. The former fourth-rounder (131st overall) last year will merely be competing for the No. 3 tight end spot with Robert Tonyan when he's fully healthy as depth behind Travis Kelce and Noah Gray. In his first year in the NFL with the Chiefs in 2024, Wiley only appeared in seven regular-season games (two starts) and caught his only target for seven yards. He's nowhere near the fantasy radar.
