Who Should I Start? Tyreek Hill or Zay Flowers

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 Zay Flowers has been cleared from the injury report after being a full participant in practice all week. The speedy wideout has struggled quite a bit with Cooper Rush under center, as has the entire offense, but could have Lamar Jackson (hamstring) back against the Chicago Bears. Even if Tyler Huntley has to start, Flowers has a bit of a higher ceiling than before. His matchup would most likely be Kyler Gordon, who has given up a 100% catch rate and an average of 11.5 yards per target. Overall, the Bears' defense has allowed an average of 34.32 fantasy points per game to opposing receiver groups and 10 touchdown receptions so far. Fantasy managers can look to Flowers as a high-end WR2 in this matchup.
