Big downturn in loss
Published: 2024-09-12
Hill secured three of six targets for 24 yards and rushed once for 12 yards in the Dolphins' 31-10 loss to the Bills on Thursday night.
Four days after a tumultuous but ultimately successful first Sunday of the regular season, Hill and the entire Dolphins offense saw a drastic downturn Thursday. Hill was saddled by generally ineffective play on the part of Tua Tagovailoa, who tossed two first-half interceptions and a pick-six early in the third quarter, and then exited the game late in the third quarter with a concussion. Hill and Jaylen Waddle both took an early seat in the fourth quarter and neither saw a target after Skylar Thompson replaced Tagovailoa, but there will be ample time to build chemistry ahead of a Week 3 road matchup against the Seahawks on Sept. 22 that Tagovailoa may not be available for.
Receives two citations
Published: 2024-09-09
Hill has received two citations, careless driving and a seatbelt violation, due to Sunday incident in which he was detained by police outside of Hard Rock Stadium prior to Miami's 20-17 win over the Jaguars, Jeff Darlington of ESPN reports.
Hill's citations don't figure to result in any further ramifications, leaving Miami's No. 1 wideout in the clear to suit up for a key Week 2 divisional matchup against the Bills on Thursday Night Football. Kevin Dotson of CNN.com reports that the Miami-Dade Police Department placed an officer on administrative leave and has begun an internal investigation related to Sunday's incident. Hill secured seven of 12 targets for 130 yards and a score during Miami's regular-season opener, in a game that also saw Jaylen Waddle pass the 100-yard mark. This Dolphins offense remains willing to funnel the passing game through Hill and Waddle, though it was encouraging to see explosive RB De'Von Achane provide another complement in the receiving game Week 1.
Vaults century mark in comeback win
Published: 2024-09-08
Hill brought in seven of 12 targets for 130 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 20-17 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He also returned one punt for 11 yards.
A day that began in less than ideal fashion for Hill due to a pregame incident where he was briefly detailed by local police during a traffic stop culminated in a signature performance for the fleet-footed star. Hill led the Dolphins in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, a familiar distinction. He also secured his first touchdown of the season on an 80-yard grab late in the third quarter to bring Miami within 17-14 at the time. There aren't expected to be any further legal ramifications for Hill stemming from the police encounter, so he should be available without restrictions again in four days when the Dolphins have an early-season showdown with the division-rival Bills on Thursday night.
Cleared to play Week 1

Hill is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
Earlier Sunday, the Dolphins announced that Hill was pulled over in his vehicle about one block from Hard Rock Stadium and briefly detained by police before being released. According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Hill was cited for reckless driving, but the incident won't prevent the star wideout from suiting up in the Dolphins' season opener. Hill also contended with a thumb injury for much of the second half of August, but that's not expected to be a concern either in Week 1 after he logged full practices Wednesday through Friday.
Detained by cops, but will play Sunday

Hill was detained by police for a driving violation outside of Hard Rock Stadium, but his agent Drew Rosenhaus said Hill will suit up and play Sunday against the Jaguars, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
In a situation seemingly similar to that of golfer Scottie Scheffler during this year's PGA Championship, Hill was spotted in handcuffs outside of his home stadium, but it won't stop him from being available for the Dolphins' season opener.
Declares full health

Hill (thumb) said Monday that he's "100 percent" healthy, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
Hill returned to practice Monday after having been limited since mid-August due to a hand/thumb injury. It always looked like the Dolphins were simply taking a cautious approach to Hill's recovery, but it's encouraging to see the star wideout remove any ambiguity from the situation ahead of Week 1. Hill is locked in as a top tier fantasy option for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Jaguars, while teammate Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed), who also resumed practicing Monday, also seems on track to suit up without issue.
Practicing Monday
Published: 2024-09-02
Coach Mike McDaniel said Monday that Hill (thumb) and Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) will both practice and "had no setbacks," Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post reports.
Hill and Waddle have both had their practice reps capped in recent weeks, but it doesn't seem like the Dolphins have had any real doubts about having the star WR duo available for Week 1. A right thumb injury has lingered for Hill since mid-August, so Miami may have simply been taking a cautious approach to his recovery, with catching ability in mind. At the latest, Wednesday's first official practice report of the season will reveal whether Hill and Waddle still carry injury designations as Sunday's opener against the Jaguars approaches.
Still sidelined

Hill (thumb) remains a non-participant at practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
The Dolphins seem to simply be taking a cautious approach to Hill's recovery, but there will be cause for worry if he's still being held out next week, when the team's first official injury reports of the regular season are released. Jaylen Waddle (undisclosed) is wearing a non-contact jersey Thursday, but the team has also downplayed his injury severity. In all likelihood, Miami is simply opting to not take any chances with either star wideout, especially given that key depth options Odell Beckham (undisclosed) and River Cracraft (upper body) are starting the year on reserve lists and ruled out for at least four games. Hill and Waddle will look to resume handling full reps before taking on the Jaguars in Week 1 on Sunday, Sept. 8.
Not practicing
Published: 2024-08-21
Coach Mike McDaniel said Hill (hand) will be held out of team drills Wednesday to avoid risk of further injury, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
McDaniel said Hill could participate fully if needed, but there's no point of rushing things with Miami's regular-season opener 18 days away (Sept. 8 against Jacksonville). Hill had a brace on his right hand at Tuesday's practice and didn't catch any passes.
