Who Should I Start? Tyreek Hill or Rashod Bateman

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) started catching passes during individual drills at mandatory minicamp on Tuesday for the first time since having offseason wrist surgery, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe. Hill is just starting to get comfortable catching again, but it's a step in the right direction, and the Dolphins hope he's able to resume team drills in training camp this summer. The 31-year-old speedy wideout had multiple surgeries on a wrist injury that bothered him throughout the 2024 season, although he didn't miss any games because of it. Miami's offense wasn't the same explosive unit we saw in previous seasons, and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's injuries didn't help. The Cheetah is now more of a low-end WR1/high-end WR2 target after going for an 81-959-6 line in 17 starts in 2024. RotoBaller has the five-time All-Pro ranked as the No. 14 fantasy wideout.

The Baltimore Ravens and wide receiver Rashod Bateman agreed to a three-year, $36.75 million contract extension on Thursday that includes $20 million guaranteed, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. It's the second straight year that Bateman and the Ravens agreed to an extension after the team gave him a two-year, $12.87 million deal that ran through 2026 last April. Baltimore is rewarding the 25-year-old former 27th overall pick again a year later after his most productive season as a pro in 2024 after he caught 45 of his 72 targets for 756 yards and nine touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (14 starts) in his fourth year in the NFL. It was a nice showing, but Bateman's fantasy ceiling remains rather low with Zay Flowers serving as the WR1 in a run-first offense. The Ravens also now have veteran DeAndre Hopkins, which means Bateman will likely be a boom/bust fantasy commodity.
