Is Tyreek Hill playing tonight? Dolphins WR's status explored for Week 10 MNF vs Rams

Tyreek Hill is a key part of how the Miami Dolphins play. The perennial All-Pro wide receiver remains one of the league's fastest players in his ninth season as a professional, and he's a matchup nightmare once he steps on the field.

Let's examine Hill's availability ahead of the Dolphins' Week 10 Monday Night Football game against the Los Angeles Rams.

Is Tyreek Hill playing tonight?

Tyreek Hill is active for tonight's game against the Rams, he confirmed to ESPN's Lisa Salters. The Dolphins WR was listed as questionable prior to the game was considered a game-time decision. The one-time Super Bowl champion has been dealing with a wrist injury.

Thus, it's likely that Hill's status will only be clear once the Miami Dolphins release their inactive list for tonight's game. Teams usually release such lists around 90 minutes before kickoff, so it's bound to be a long wait for Tyreek Hill fantasy football owners.

The Miami Dolphins would prefer if Hill is fit and ready to feature in tonight's crunch matchup against the Rams. However, the franchise is well stocked at the wide receiver position, with Jaylen Waddle and Odell Beckham Jr. being potential game-changing options in their own right.

How has Tyreek Hill performed this season?

Tyreek Hill is having potentially his worst season in years. The superstar wide receiver has amassed a stat line of 34 catches, 446 receiving yards and one touchdown in eight games. Hill has yet to record a 100-yard game or touchdown catch since his team's Week 1 win against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Of course, there have been factors that have caused Hill's iffy form in 2024. Such factors include but aren't limited to Tua Tagovailoa's injury issues, questions around Mike McDaniel's offensive game planning and Hill's reoccurring wrist injury.

These issues have added to a frustrating season that has seen the future Hall of Famer go on a seven-game run without a touchdown while starling, considering the phenomenal season he had in 2023.

Hill's loss of form has contributed to the Dolphins' having one of the worst records in the league as of Week 10. The Dolphins go into tonight's game with a 2-7 record and haven't won a game since their Oct. 6 win over the New England Patriots. The Dolphins need to find a way to win tonight's game, with or without Hill, to keep their dwindling playoff hopes alive.
