Tyreek Hill recently spoke to taking full accountability for his actions while declaring his intent to play for the Dolphins next season.
Much has been made of Tyreek Hill wanting to get out of Miami and have a fresh start. Tyreek Hill shared his displeasure in the team not reaching the playoffs and spoke of wanting out of Miami in a post game interview in which the Dolphins lost to the Jets 32-20. Recall agent Drew Rosenhaus went on the Pat McAfee in early January to defend his client in hopes of clearing things forward.
Appearing Friday on the Up & Adams show with Kay Adams, Tyreek Hill spoke to taking full accountability for what he said as well as wanting to stay with the Dolphins and come back to Miami in 2025. Tyreek Hill finished as the WR-24 in fantasy in 2024, falling short of 1,000 yards receiving on only 12.8 fantasy points per game.
Tyreek Hill dealt with injury in 2024 and fantasy gamers can take advantage of a discounted price on UnderDog as he has an average draft position of 22 in the late 2nd round. If drafters can tell themselves a story of 2024 being an anomaly, the soon to be 31 year old wide receiver can pay off greatly for those who buy the dip.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill has gone back on ...
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Dolphins have cleared...
Appearing on the Pat McAfee show, Tyreek Hill’s agent Drew Rosenhaus stated that Hill broke his wrist in a pre-season scrimmage against the Washington Commanders.
As Michael Scott in the Office once famously said, “My, how the turntables.” Plenty has been made about Tyreek Hill in the last few days regarding his commitment to the Miami Dolphins heading into 2025. It has now come out that Tyreek Hill played through a fractured wrist in lieu of sitting out the 2024 season.
Appearing on the Pat McAfee show, agent Drew Rosenhaus stated that Tyreek Hill suffered a broken wrist in a scrimmage with the Washington Commanders. An important angle of analysis regarding the injury is Tyreek Hill saying that his arrest prior to his week 1 game versus the Jaguars caused harm to his wrist. Proximate cause of injury has been revealed by Drew Rosenhaus and the question remains of whether or not the severity of the tightness of the handcuffs applied by the officer in Tyreek Hill’s arrest caused further damage.
While lawyers are likely to be involved in the minutiae of the accountability Tyreek Hill is seeking from the Miami Police Department, it also stands out that Tyreek Hill played the entire season to his own risk. Tyreek Hill’s offseason is shaping up to deal with parallel battles both legal and professional.

Agent Drew Rosenhaus says that Tyreek Hill is committed to the Dolphins after fruitful communication with the team.
There has been plenty of buzz about Tyreek Hill after he said in a post game interview that he needed to do what is best for his family and move on. The natural deduction by many was that Tyreek Hill would push and agitate to get out of Miami.
A few days have passed and agent Drew Rosenhaus has put the word out that Tyreek Hill is committed to the Dolphins after meeting with the team. At face value, this may play out as a frustrated Tyreek Hill being disappointed the Dolphins fell short of the playoffs and needing some time to cool off.
Another angle could be that the Dolphins brass and Hill’s party have come to an agreement to show outward unity while agreeing to explore trade options. This would allow the Dolphins to get maximum value back in a trade. With dissension being shown, expect rumors of wide receiver needy teams in win now mode to pick up and for the phone to start ringing to inquire on the Dolphins asking price.

The Miami Dolphins and wide receiver Tyreek Hill agreed to restructure his current contract which could be worth $90 million with $65 million guaranteed over the next three years.
The Dolphins kept their elite wide receiver a happy camper with this agreement. After the recent contract extensions of several top receivers in the game Tyreek Hill gets to lay claim to the highest guaranteed total ever for a contract at $106.5 million. No additional years were added to the contract.
Since joining the Dolphins two years ago, Hill has been targeted by an astonishing 341 times. Hill has averaged 119 receptions, 1,755 yards, and 10 touchdowns per season during that stretch. This torrid pace will continue this Fall.
If you want to secure the Cheetah’s service you better hope you have a Top-3 pick in re-draft leagues, because if not he will be gone. Hill is currently going third overall in fantasy drafts. In terms of dynasty leagues, if you are a contender, Hill will surely be one of the ride-and-die players to lead you to a championship at season’s end. Should you be a team with no chance at a dynasty title, look to deal Hill soon and try to get multiple first-round rookie picks since the veteran receiver is getting up there in age and could be an injury away from losing his breakaway speed.
Drafters are once again ready to be hurt again and are buying into Jerry Jeudy as a 5th year breakout.
Jerry Jeudy has risen 4 spots in ADP on UnderDog since July 9th. The new Cleveland Browns wide receiver is being drafted at the 10-11 turn. Heading into his 5th year on his second team, Jeudy did well this offseason in getting a 3-year $52 million contract in free agency.
With Amari Cooper wanting a new contract and the uncertainty that hangs over the Browns organization since Deshaun Watson signed, drafters are once again telling themselves a story to how Jeudy can pay off at WR-61 pricing on UnderDog. Jeudy is also an excellent selection for drafters looking to correlate the week 17 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. With steep investments of Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and De’Von Achane, having Jerry Jeudy to click at the 10-11 turn is palatable and alluring.
Overall, continue to click Jerry Jeudy where he goes as failure at the current price point won’t sink your teams with the upside well worth adding him to your best ball squads. Expect things to smooth over between Amari Cooper and the Browns which will keep Jerry Jeudy’s price in check.
Tyreek Hill is expected to return for the Dolphins in Week 16 when they face the Dallas Cowboys.
Tyreek Hill is expected to return to the lineup in Week 16 when the Miami Dolphins face the Dallas Cowboys, after a one week absence due to a high ankle sprain. Fantasy managers that were fortunate enough to make it through the week in the fantasy playoffs without the PPR WR1 are celebrating his return. Hill, prior to his injury was on a torrid pace, keeping up with Calvin Johnson’s single season receiving yard record of 1964 yards. Hill is 422 yards shy of this record with 3 games remaining.
As always, Hill is matchup proof and is an automatic start in fantasy. Hill should finish as a top 3 overall wide receiver option in week 16. Jaylen Waddle who exploded last week in Hill’s absence had his best game of his season finishing as the WR2 with 8 receptions for 142 and a touchdown. Waddle will be relegated back to his secondary role, fire Waddle up as a borderline WR1.
