Nothing has gone proper for the Dolphins in 2024. So, it should not be stunning that vast receiver Tyreek Hill acquired a troubling damage replace on Saturday.

“[Hill]’s wrist damage was ‘heating up,’ they usually wished to ‘let it settle down,'” wrote Louis-Jacques.
Hill, whose 3,955 receiving yards since being traded to the Dolphins in 2022 are the most in the league, appeared on Miami’s damage report after not taking part in Friday’s apply.
The Dolphins are lucky that they play on Monday, giving Hill an additional day to heal. If he is inactive, it might add to Miami’s disappointing season.
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered a concussion in Week 2 and missed 4 video games.
Miami (2-6) ranks thirty first in scoring (15.5 factors per sport) after rating second in 2023 (29.2 factors per sport). Whereas the offense has fared higher since Tagovailoa returned in Week 8 towards the Cardinals, the Dolphins misplaced each video games by a mixed 4 factors, 58-54.
The Dolphins entered the season as considered one of 10 groups with an over-under win whole of 10 video games or extra. They ranked twelfth in preseason Tremendous Bowl odds (+2500).
As an alternative of contending for a championship, Miami is 4.5 video games behind the Payments (7-2) for first within the AFC East and ranks twelfth general within the convention.
Its season may get even worse if Hill cannot play towards the Rams (4-4).
As disappointing as that may be for the Dolphins, based mostly on how their season has gone up to now, they need to be used to it.
