Tyreek Hill fantasy outlook for Week 2

Tyreek Hill has been one of the best fantasy football wide receivers in his career so far. He has finished six of the past seven seasons ranked among the top eight players in his position.

In a high-powered Miami Dolphins passing attack, he has a case for being the top overall fantasy player to target for the 2024 season.

The superstar got his year started with another dominant performance in Week 1, recording seven receptions on 12 targets for 130 yards and a touchdown. He will look to keep things rolling in a favorable matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

This is projected to be one of the highest-scoring games of Week 2, so Hill is an absolutely elite option for fantasy lineups.

Jaylen Waddle fantasy outlook for Week 2

Jaylen Waddle has proven to be a valuable wide receiver in fantasy football, despite being the WR2 on the Dolphins. He has finished among the top 15 players in his position in two of his three years so far and got off to a fast start in the 2024 season.

His strong Week 1 performance included catching all five of his targets and recording 112 scrimmage yards.

Targeting players from NFL games who are projected to be high-scoring is a valuable strategy in fantasy football. Waddle holds plenty of weekly upside in any matchup, but taking on the Bills this week raises his ceiling even higher.

The Dolphins are also dealing with injuries to their top two running backs, so if either of them are out, it could mean even more touches for Waddle.

Tyreek Hill vs Jaylen Waddle: Who should you start?

While Jaylen Waddle makes for an excellent wide receiver to target in Week 2 of the 2024 fantasy football season, Tyreek Hill is still the preferred option. In a favorable matchup against the Bills in what is projected to be a high-scoring game, Hill has a strong case for being the top overall player on the position rankings this week.
