No Timetable for Tyreek Hill's Return

Friday, June 12, 5:13 AM

Five-time All-Pro wide receiver Tyreek Hill has not played in an NFL game in almost nine months, and with minicamps around the league concluding ahead of the annual summer break, the 10-year veteran remains unsigned. Hill suffered a severe leg injury that left him with multiple ligament tears and a dislocated knee, and it does not seem as if he's ready to join a team anytime soon. Hill's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, recently spoke with Miami-based sportscaster Josh Moser and told him that Hill "is still in the midst of a rigorous recovery and rehab", adding that there is no set timetable for his return. Hill, who has racked up more than 12,000 yards and 90 touchdowns in his 10-year career, has a goal of earning the Comeback Player of the Year Award, according to Rosenhaus, but should he return for an 11th season, it sounds as if it could come as a mid-season signing rather than a training camp pickup. At 32 years old, Hill has fallen to RotoBaller's dynasty WR82.

DeVonta Smith News

DeVonta Smith Poised for WR1 Role in the Aftermath of Trade?

Tuesday, June 2, 5:25 AM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has seen his dynasty cost rise throughout the offseason as rumors of an A.J. Brown trade grew louder and more credible. With the deal finally becoming official on Monday, and Brown heading to New England for a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-rounder, Smith steps into a role at the top of the depth chart in which he's thrived with limited opportunities. In three of the four games Smith has appeared in without Brown over the past two seasons, he's earned at least a 29% target share. A limited snap count in last season's finale is all that kept him from going four out of four, but his extrapolated full-season pace across those four contests is 98 receptions for 1,237 yards, legitimate WR1 numbers. Obviously, the trade was not made in a vacuum, as the Eagles planned for this moment by signing Hollywood Brown, trading for Dontayvion Wicks, and drafting Makai Lemon and tight end Eli Stowers, but Smith should be the most significant benefactor of Brown's absence, as he has been in a small but impressive sampling. Smith is RotoBaller's dynasty WR27, but that ranking could continue to rise as the season draws closer.
