Tyreek Hill Sends Direct Message to Fantasy Football Players

With the NFL regular season set to begin this Thursday, September 5, fans have either already drafted their fantasy football teams or will do so before then.

Regardless of when your draft is, if you will have a fantasy team in 2024, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill has a message for you.

Hill has been one of the top wide receivers in the NFL over the years, let alone one of the league's best players. In fact, he was just ranked as the No. 1 overall player in the league, as voted on by his peers.

In 2023, Hill had the best season of his career, leading to a second-place fantasy finish among wide receivers, only coming in behind CeeDee Lamb. Hill recorded 119 receptions for 1,799 yards and 13 touchdowns, resulting in 376.4 fantasy points in PPR leagues.

Throughout the preseason, Hill has dealt with a thumb injury, which kept him out of joint practice with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Those around football have been monitoring the situation.

On Monday, he spoke directly to fantasy football players to update them on the injury.

"To all my fantasy people... I'm fine," Hill said in a press conference. " 100 percent. A okay. I'm trolling."

Hill is a consensus top-five draft pick in ESPN leagues. This is no surprise as he is entering his third year playing in head coach Mike McDaniel's innovative offense with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

In 2024, ESPN projects Hill to finish with 106 receptions, 1436 yards, and eight touchdowns, totaling 298.9 fantasy points in PPR leagues.

The Dolphins look to start the season 1-0 at home this Sunday, September 8 at 1:00 p.m. ET against Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars.
