Who Should I Start? Tyreek Hill or Rashod Bateman

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (knee) said on Terron Armstead's podcast that he's undecided if he wants to continue his playing career after suffering a season-ending left-knee injury on Sept. 29 against the New York Jets. "At the end of the day, I feel like that decision is based upon how I feel and where my mindset is at the moment," Hill said. "I'm happy with the career that I've had. I love playing football. I love it, but it takes a lot. It takes a lot on you mentally, it takes a lot on you physically." The 31-year-old had back-to-back 1,700-yard receiving seasons in his first two years in Miami, including a league-leading 1,799 yards in 2023. However, the five-time All-Pro had a down year in 2024 with 81 catches for 959 yards, his lowest totals since 2019. The Cheetah's contract with the Dolphins runs through next season, but at this point, it's unclear if he even wants to play football again.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has been one of the biggest boom-or-bust options throughout his career, next to maybe Jameson Williams. So far this season, Bateman has one finish above a WR3 and finished just inside WR3 territory in half-PPR formats in Week 9. His ceiling is much higher with Lamar Jackson under center, but he's only amassed 29 targets so far this season and has turned that into 15 catches for 184 yards and two touchdowns. The Minnesota Vikings are currently ranked as the eighth-toughest defense against receiver groups, but they've been very vulnerable the last three weeks. That gives Bateman some flex appeal, but only in deeper leagues.
