Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Agrees to contract adjustment
Rotowire
Hill restructured his contract with the Dolphins on Friday to convert his $10 million roster bonus into a $24.84 million bonus and his $16 million salary into a $1.17 million salary, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Hill's restructured opens up about $18 million in cap space for Miami as the team prepares to tackle free agency. The star wideout remains under contract for the Dolphins for the next three seasons after having put together a career 119-1,710-8 receiving line last year. By all accounts, Hill looks to be in prime position for another high-end fantasy season in Year 2 of coach Mike McDaniel's scheme, with Tua Tagovailoa primed to return as his starting quarterback.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Struggles in regular-season finale
Rotowire
Hill brought in two of five targets for 23 yards in the Dolphins' 11-6 win over the Jets on Sunday.
It was a forgettable afternoon overall for Hill on an individual level, although the overriding storyline naturally was the Dolphins' ability to secure a wild-card spot with the victory. Hill exited the game at one point with an ankle issue but was able to return, but he'll head into next weekend's road wild-card matchup against the Bills with a combined 6-78 line over the final two games of the regular season and no immediate insight into which quarterback he'll be working with.

Rotowire
Hill (ankle) has returned to Sunday's game against the Jets, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.

Rotowire

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Held in check by Patriots
Rotowire
Hill secured four of seven targets for 55 yards during Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Patriots. He also scored a two-yard touchdown on his only carry.
Hill's receiving upside was capped with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) inactive and Teddy Bridgewater (finger) forced out in the third quarter, leaving him to finish the game with third-string rookie Skylar Thompson. The speedster finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Raheem Mostert, in large part due to a game plan focused on shorter completions against New England's high-octane defense. His rushing touchdown helped salvage the day for fantasy purposes, but quarterback play could once again limit Hill's upside Week 18 against the Jets tough defense.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Hits century mark against Packers
Rotowire
Hill caught four of six targets for 103 yards in Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Packers.
The Dolphins' offense could do nothing wrong in the first half and almost nothing right in the second, otherwise Hill might have put together an even bigger performance. It's the speedster's seventh 100-yard game of the season, but he remains behind Justin Jefferson in the race for the NFL receiving yards crown heading into a Week 17 road clash with the Patriots.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Heavy catch volume in loss
Rotowire
Hill secured nine of 13 targets for 69 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 32-29 loss to the Bills on Saturday night.
Hill recorded a game-high reception tally in the high-scoring loss and also posted a 20-yard scoring grab down the right sideline in the third quarter on a perfectly thrown pass from Tua Tagovailoa. The speedster now has a touchdown reception in three straight contests and a pair of nine-catch tallies in that span as well, giving him plenty of momentum going into a key Christmas Day afternoon home matchup against the Packers in Week 16.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Logs full practice
Rotowire
Hill (ankle) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's walk-through practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Though Miami didn't hold a traditional full-contact practice session Wednesday, Hill looks as though he did enough to avoid being listed as a limited participant, thus clearing up any lingering concern about his status for Saturday's game at Buffalo. The stakes couldn't be much higher for the Dolphins and the matchup couldn't be more imposing, so they will no doubt give Hill all the work he can handle. In the Dolphins' previous meeting with the Bills in Week 3, Hill was held to two receptions for 33 yards on four targets, all of which represent season-low marks.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Limited to begin Week 15 prep
Rotowire
Hill (ankle) was listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.
Hill played through an ankle issue in a 23-17 loss to the Chargers over the weekend, but it didn't stop him from recording four catches for 81 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets while adding another score of a fumble recovery. Head coach Mike McDaniel said after the contest that Hill wasn't dealing with anything more than minor "bumps and bruises," and the expectation is that the star wideout will be ready to play Saturday in Buffalo.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Working through bumps and bruises
Rotowire
Coach Mike McDaniel relayed Monday that Hill, who worked through an ankle issue during Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Chargers, is in line to receive treatment for the injury Tuesday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
At this stage, it doesn't appear that the wideout's status for Saturday's game against the Bills is in danger, with McDaniel noting "from all indications, it's bumps and bruises he'll be able to work through." Chances are, however, that Hill's practice reps will be managed in the coming days.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Finishes game after injury scare
Rotowire
Hill (ankle) had four receptions (10 targets) for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Chargers. He also recovered a teammate's fumble for another touchdown.
Hill had fantasy managers holding their collective breath when he was forced to the locker room with an ankle injury late in the first half. The speedy wideout was able to return after halftime, promptly scoring a touchdown for good measure. Miami limited Hill's snaps in the second half after he appeared to be running at less than 100 percent on a couple of routes as the game progressed. The 28-year-old was on the field for the Dolphins' final offensive drive, ending an eventful night on a positive note. Make sure to monitor Hill's status during practice this week, as he may be limited due to his ankle ahead of Saturday's tilt against the Bills.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Good to go this week
Rotowire
Hill (illness) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chargers after practicing fully Friday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Hill sat out practice Thursday, but the wideout was back for a full session Friday. Though 12 contests to date, Hill has logged a fantasy-friendly 96-1,379-5 receiving line on 129 targets. As long as they remain healthy, Hill and Jaylen Waddle should continue to see plenty of volume in the passing game in the weeks to come.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: No longer ill
Rotowire
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said Hill is no longer ill and will return to practice Friday, Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald reports.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Misses Thursday's practice

Hill practiced fully Wednesday, so the wideout's status now is worth monitoring closely as this weekend's game against the Chargers approaches. Friday's practice/injury report will provide further context regarding Hill's Week 14 status ahead of Sunday night's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Another big game
Rotowire
Hill caught nine of 13 targets for 146 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-17 loss to the 49ers.
Hill comfortably led the Dolphins in all major receiving categories, as teammate Jaylen Waddle managed just one catch for nine yards while playing through a leg injury. In signature Hill fashion, the speedster broke free for a 45-yard touchdown bomb to begin the fourth quarter. In doing so, Hill has now scored three times in his last four games, and Sunday incredibly marked his sixth outing with at least 140 receiving yards this season. Arguably the league's most explosive wideout, Hill next faces a Chargers secondary that surrendered over 175 yards and two touchdowns to Raiders standout Davante Adams on Sunday.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Not on injury report
Rotowire
Hill isn't listed on Miami's Week 13 injury report Wednesday ahead of a game in San Francisco on Sunday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Hill dealt with cramps during Sunday's 30-15 win over Houston, and head coach Mike McDaniel pulled most of his starters anyway once the team banked a 30-point lead at halftime. Cramps shouldn't be as much of an issue for Hill this weekend on the West Coast, though he tends to play a few less snaps than other top receivers because of how often he's targeted when on the field and how much energy he expends on each play. The concern for this week -- so much as there can ever be one for a player like Hill in the midst of a career year -- is a matchup on the road with one of the best defenses in the NFL. He's still an auto-start in season-long formats but might be less popular than usual for DFS this week.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Solid showing before early exit
Rotowire
Hill (undisclosed) brought in six of nine targets for 85 yards and rushed once for five yards in the Dolphins' 30-15 win over the Texans on Sunday. He left the game in the second half due to cramping, per Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald.
Hill put together an efficient performance prior to his early exit, helping the Dolphins jump out to a 30-0 lead by halftime with a team-high catch total and co-team-best receiving yardage tally as well. The speedster's cramping issues shouldn't be a long-term concern, and he'll figure to play an integral role in a Week 13 road showdown against the 49ers after eclipsing the 70-yard mark for the fifth time in the last six games Sunday.

Rotowire
Hill secured five of six targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 39-17 win over the Browns on Sunday.
Hill led the Dolphins in receptions on the afternoon, but his yardage total was his second lowest of the season.

Hill heads into the Week 11 bye already boasting an 81-1148-4 line through 10 games.

Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Eye-popping numbers yet again
Rotowire
Hill secured seven of eight targets for 143 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 35-32 win over the Bears on Sunday.
Hill put together what is fast becoming a normal game for him during his young but prolific Dolphins tenure, with his catch, yardage and target tallies all serving as team highs on the afternoon. Hill also recorded his third trip to the end zone this season on a three-yard touchdown grab early in the second quarter, and he's now eclipsed the 140-yard mark on a jaw-dropping five occasions over his first nine games. Hill next gets a crack at a vulnerable Browns secondary on his home field in a Week 10 matchup.
