As Tyreek Hill tries to stay on his early-season pace for 2,000 rushing yards, he’s dealing with an injury. Wednesday’s Miami practice report shows that Hill was limited in practice with an ankle injury. It’s unclear whether and to what extent it will limit him on Sunday against the Broncos. Hill has 16 catches for 255 yards through two weeks, after being limited to five receptions for 40 yards against the Patriots. He remains on pace for 2,167 yards, but he’s second in the NFL in receiving yards behind Justin Jefferson, who has 300. If receiver Jaylen Waddle, who is in the concussion protocol, isn’t cleared by Sunday, it will be easier for the Denver defense to focus on taking away Hill without having to worry about Waddle having a huge day.
Tyreek Hill popped up on the practice report Wednesday with an ankle injury that limited him. There is nothing to see here. The Dolphins star receiver returned to a full practice Thursday, and Hill was not asked about his ankle in the Q&A transcript distributed by the team. Thus, it appears Hill is good to go for Sunday’s game against the Broncos. The Dolphins will need him with receiver Jaylen Waddle looking less likely to play by the day. He remains out of practice with a concussion. Linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel (ankle) returned to a full practice, which was the only other change to the Dolphins’ injury report besides Hill. Running back Salvon Ahmed (groin) remained out and is not expected to play Sunday. Left tackle Terron Armstead (back/ankle/knee), defensive back Elijah Campbell (knee), defensive tackle Raekwon Davis (wrist), tight end Julian Hill (ankle), tight end Tyler Kroft (back) and linebacker Jaelen (back) again were limited.
