The Miami Dolphins will face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding WR Tyreek Hill.
Is Tyreek Hill Playing in Week 11?
Tyreek Hill did not participate in Wednesday’s practice due to a wrist injury but was upgraded to a limited participant on Thursday. He fully practiced on Friday and was officially removed from the Dolphins’ injury report.
Hill was a game-time decision for Miami’s Monday night win over the Rams but ultimately suited up, playing 87% of the club’s snaps while catching three passes for 16 yards and a touchdown.
Hill told ESPN’s Lisa Salters that he’s been dealing with his wrist injury since training camp, adding that the injury was aggravated when police arrested Hill en route to the Dolphins’ Week 1 game. Hill said an MRI showed that he had a torn ligament.

Should You Start or Sit Tyreek Hill in Week 11?
Hill was a game-time decision last week (wrist), and while he was active, he wasn’t as “active” by his lofty standards. The one-yard touchdown saved his stat line from a complete disaster, but he posted just a 14.8% on-field target share, a career low for a game started by Tua Tagovailoa.
It sounds as if this injury will have to be managed throughout, but given that the Dolphins have essentially no room for error the rest of the way, I fully expect their star receiver to play through it.
I’ve dropped him a touch in my rankings as a result of the ailment, but that just means he now ranks closer to WR12 on the week than WR5 — there’s nothing actionable to do on your end. No defense in the NFL allows touchdowns at a higher rate on short passes than the Raiders, so if the plan is to get Hill the ball in space and allow him to dictate how many hits he takes, that could still pay off in a significant way on Sunday.
