Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (thumb) is fully healthy heading into Sunday's home-opening tilt against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The veteran wideout is in a smash spot for Week 1 against a Jacksonville squad that ranked seventh-most in yards and touchdowns allowed through the air in 2023. Hill spent most of the preseason tending to a thumb injury that held him out of action, but his Week 1 status was never in doubt. The ninth-year speedster was back at practice this week and is primed for another tremendous season under Mike McDaniel on a high-flying Dolphins offense. Expect him and running mate Jaylen Waddle to dominate targets again in a particularly funneled Miami passing attack. With an implied 26-point total for his team, Hill is RotoBaller's top overall play in PPR leagues heading into Week 1.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Calvin Ridley heads into a Week 1 matchup against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The veteran wideout revitalized his career last season in Jacksonville with over 1,000 yards and eight touchdowns, helping him secure a large payday from the Titans this spring. With DeAndre Hopkins now 32 and in his last year of his contract, Ridley figures to be the WR1 for this offense captained by sophomore quarterback Will Levis. Week 1 presents one of the toughest matchups all year with the Chicago Bears and their formidable secondary led by lockdown corner Jaylon Johnson, who also just signed a massive extension in the offseason. The good news for Ridley owners is that Hopkins is likely to see more of the All-Pro in coverage, meaning the former Alabama star should have his fair share of chances to exploit this defense. Ridley checks in as a low-mid tier WR2 for Week 1 of the NFL season.
