Tyreek Hill Injury History & Analysis

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist, illness) is active for today’s game vs. the Jets. He should play a full slate of snaps in this must-win game. QB Tyler Huntley is a downgrade from QB Tua Tagovailoa, but Hill posted a 9-105-0 line with Huntley last week.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist, illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Jets. He's been playing through the wrist injury for much of the season and should suit up this weekend. QB Tua Tagovailoa's absence dings Hill's fantasy value, but he can still be played as a WR2 in fantasy lineups.

Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel said Wednesday that the team is preparing QB Tyler Huntley to start this weekend's game vs. the Jets. QB Tua Tagovailoa will be limited in practice on Wednesday with his hip injury, and it sounds like he hasn't been ruled out for Week 18 yet. But fantasy owners should be planning as if it'll be Huntley under center again for now. He played well in the Week 17 win over the Browns, completing 22 of 26 passes (85%) for 225 yards (8.7 YPA) and one TD, adding another 52 yards and a score on the ground. Just as importantly, the Dolphins stayed pass-heavy, registering a +11% pass rate over expected. That makes it easier to trust guys like WR Tyreek Hill and TE Jonnu Smith in Week 18 fantasy lineups, although Huntley is still a downgrade from Tagovailoa.

Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (wrist, rest) is active for today’s game vs. the Browns. WR Jaylen Waddle (knee) is inactive. His absence gives Hill and TE Jonnu Smith potential target boosts. But both guys took big hits in the Week 17 Rankings with QB Tua Tagovailoa out.

The forecast for this afternoon's Dolphins-Browns game calls for sustained winds of 15-25 mph with gusts over 35. There's a chance for rain during the second half, but the winds are the real story here. They figure to impact the passing and kicking games. With Tyler Huntley and Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center for their respective teams, this figures to be a low-scoring, run-heavy affair.
