Who Should I Start? Nick Westbrook-Ikhine or Kendall Hinton

Wednesday, June 11, 9:43 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (undisclosed) has been working through an undisclosed injury during the offseason but feels ready to push himself. He said it has been an adjustment learning a new offense and is working to carve out a role behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. It sounds as though the 28-year-old pass-catcher will be ready to roll for training camp this summer. The former undrafted free agent out of Indiana had his best season in the NFL with the Tennessee Titans last year, catching 32 of his 60 targets for 497 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 games (nine starts) in his fifth year in the league. Nobody could really explain Westbrook-Ikhine's outlier season in 2024 in a bad Titans offense after he had 1,276 yards and 10 TDs his first four years. He does have a nose for the end zone and is moving to a better offense, but a repeat of last year is unlikely.

Wide receiver Kendall Hinton was let go by the Denver Broncos in a round of cuts on Sunday. The undrafted wide receiver caught 24 passes for 311 yards in the 2022 season, both of which were career-high totals. Hinton is best known for starting a game at quarterback during the 2020 season when the NFL ruled all of Denver's signal callers were ineligible due to exposure to COVID. He was applauded for stepping in, even though the stats (1-for-9 passing for 13 yards and two interceptions) told a different story.
