Who Should I Start? Tyreek Hill or Chase Brown

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.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown carried the ball five times for 16 yards and a touchdown in the 31-17 win against the Washington Commanders. Brown was able to find the endzone on a fourth-and-goal from the one-yard line, which is a sign that the Bengals trust him in short-yardage situations. Brown has now carried the ball 10 times for 40 yards and a touchdown, adding three receptions for 25 yards through the air in the first two preseason games. The 2023 fifth-round pick has league-winning upside as the starting running back for one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL. Brown's last chance to get preseason reps will be Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts.
