What They're Saying

Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network: "Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill is latest player dealing with minor injury. He wore a removable brace on right hand during practice today.

Hill was in uniform/helmet but I didn’t spot him catch a pass. Mike McDaniel has noted caution with many players to get/keep them healthy for season"

2024 Fantasy Football Impact

The injury appears to be minor for Hill, but worth noting for a consensus top three fantasy football pick.

Hill not catching practices during practice is a bit concerning, but he would not have even participated if the injury was likely to be long term or could be worsened.

Keeping Hill healthy is crucial for a Miami Dolphins offense who will try to replicate their early season success from last year.

A bit of fantasy football help and advice is to not lower Hill on your board due to this minor injury but pay attention to additional details.

We will keep tabs on the injury and provide any updates here.
