Is Tyreek Hill Healthy Or Injured? Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Tyreek Hill - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Picks

The Miami Dolphins looked like one of the hottest teams in football throughout most of September. However, they have stumbled across a plethora of obstacles in recent weeks, including head injuries to quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Teddy Bridgewater. As a result, Miami's offense has faltered drastically and the team is now 3-2, dropping them to third place in the AFC East.

Unfortunately, the injuries didn't stop with the quarterbacks. Tyreek Hill picked up an injury of his own in Week 5 against the New York Jets.

Is Tyreek Hill healthy or injured? Will he play in Week 6? What is his fantasy football outlook?

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for the 2025 playoffs:

 

Is Tyreek Hill Healthy or Injured?

Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel told the media that Hill was stepped on late in the game Sunday. The team quickly listed him as questionable, and he was seen in a walking boot after the game.

It's important to point out that this foot injury is new and is not related to the quad ailment that limited him last week.

 

Will Tyreek Hill Play In Week 6?

The Dolphins are slated to take on the Minnesota Vikings next Sunday. As a result, Hill has nearly a whole week to recover and demonstrate that he is healthy enough to play in Week 6.

McDaniel spoke to the media again on Monday, explaining that Hill "looked pretty good" and will be evaluated on a day-by-day basis over the remainder of this week. There is still plenty of time for the wideout's status to change, but for now, the Dolphins feel optimistic about his availability for next weekend's contest.

 

Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Thanks to his injury, Hill played a season-low 64 percent of snaps this past Sunday. He hauled in all seven of his targets but racked up just 47 yards and zero touchdowns.

Part of Hill's struggles can be blamed on subpar quarterback play. With both Tagovailoa and Bridgewater injured, the Dolphins turned to third-string rookie Skylar Thompson, who had never played a regular-season down in the NFL prior to Week 5. The Kansas State product completed just 57.6 percent of passes in his debut, amassing 166 yards, zero touchdowns, one interception, and one fumble.

With Thompson in charge of the offense, the Dolphins' passing attack is somewhat restricted. Sure, he has looked serviceable, but he doesn't boast the same passing upside that we saw when Tagovailoa was healthy. As a result, Hill's upside will be capped for the duration of Thompson's run as the starter. The 28-year-old wideout should be viewed as a high-end WR2 in Week 6 against Minnesota, a noticeable reduction from his WR1 projection in past weeks. Fantasy managers should start him like always, but they should also temper expectations.
