Tyreek Hill injury update: Should fantasy managers be concerned about Dolphins WR?

Tyreek Hill has established himself as one of the finest wideouts in the NFL. He will enter his ninth season in the big league and his third year with the Miami Dolphins in 2024.

However, there was some concern for fans and fantasy managers alike when Hill was kept out of practice last week due to a hand injury. There were also some doubts as to whether the eight-time Pro Bowler will feature against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1.

Should fantasy managers be concerned about drafting Tyreek Hill?

As things stand, fantasy managers should not be too concerned about drafting Tyreek Hill for Miami's Week 1 clash against the Jaguars on Sunday.

The wideout will return to full training with the team on Monday, Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel confirmed earlier in the day.

Hill was reportedly dealing with a minor thumb injury. The Dolphins kept him out of practice heading into the season opener to give the player some recovery time.

However, it now appears that there are no more injury concerns for Hill heading into Miami's season opener.

Hill, who was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016, won the Super Bowl with the team in 2020. He has finished inside the top 12 for fantasy receivers every year since 2017.

Since joining the Dolphins in 2022, Hill has taken his game to new heights. Last season, he was en route to become the first receiver in NFL history to post 2,000 receiving yards in a season, but fell short towards the back end of the regular season. Nonetheless, he finished with a league-leading 1,799 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns.

Hill has averaged more than 20.0 FPPG four times in his eight seasons in the league. He doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon.

In the 2023 season, Hill finished with a career-high 376.4 fantasy points, averaging 23.5 FPPG. It remains to be seen whether he can beat those numbers in 2024.
