MIA WR Tyreek Hill - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Baltimore Ravens

Tyreek Hill is off to a good start in his Dolphins career. He saw a team-high 12 targets in Week 1, finishing 8-94-0. He also had a carry for six yards. We expected this to be the game plan for Hill, tons of targets on shorter routes. Pretty similar to what we saw with Jaylen Waddle a year ago. Expect Hill to keep up the production this week in a favorable matchup against the Ravens. Hill should continue to be viewed as a top-10 WR heading into Week 2.

MIA WR Tyreek Hill - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. New England Patriots

Tyreek Hill has been one of the most dominant wide receivers in fantasy since joining the league in 2016. A lot of that is Hill's own talent, but we can't ignore the impact of playing with Patrick Mahomes as well. Despite Hill's constant praise of Tua Tagovailoa, it's most definitely a downgrade at the QB position. But Hill is a good-enough player to still make an impact. Hill gets a real test in Week 1 as he faces a tough Patriots defense that allowed the second-fewest average fantasy points to receivers a year ago. But Hill has overcome bad matchups plenty of times. He should still be viewed as a top 10 option at the WR position, making him a must-start player in Week 1.

MIA WR Tyreek Hill - 2022 Fantasy Football Outlook

2022 Fantasy Upside
Tyreek Hill has been one of the best at his position ever since taking a lead role in 2017. In fact, he has the 8th-most receptions, 4th-most receiving yards, and 2nd-most receiving touchdowns in that span. He’s been incredibly consistent, finishing as WR8, WR1, WR30 (injured), WR2, and WR6 in those years. He gets a change of scenery in Miami where he joins creative HC Mike McDaniel, who made Deebo Samuel WR3 last season. While we may not see the same running back usage out of Hill that we saw with Samuel, we’ve seen Hill on the ground plenty throughout his career as he has 93 career rush attempts.

2022 Fantasy Downside
Hill gets a downgrade at QB as he goes from Patrick Mahomes to Tua Tagovailoa. He also joins a different system. Kansas City threw the ball 675 times last season, good for second-most in the league. McDaniel’s 49ers team had 514 attempts, fourth-fewest in the league. Hill also goes from being the guy in Kansas City to just one of the guys in Miami. Yes, he’ll be WR1, but there’s more talent in the WR corps here with Jaylen Waddle and Cedrick Wilson. All of this leads to fewer targets on fewer pass attempts, which ultimately leads to less production.

2022 Bottom Line
Hill is one of the most talented wide receivers in the league, and should still be viewed as a WR1 in fantasy. The difference this year, however, is he won’t be the WR1 most likely. In the past four seasons, Hill has averaged 80.5 receiving yards per game, and it’s really difficult to see that continuing in 2022 in Miami. With a new system and a new QB, Hill goes from being a top-5 WR to more like a top-10 WR. He’s still good, but he’s not that elite option you consider spending a 1st-round pick on. He’s more of a mid 2nd-round pick.

KC WR Tyreek Hill - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Cincinnati Bengals

Tyreek Hill owners got some good and bad news last week. The good news he was activated from the COVID list on Saturday. The bad news is he wasn't fully recovered and put up a dud performance of 2-19 on two targets. He ended up playing a season-low 42% of the offensive snaps, partly because of his recovery and partly because it was a blowout game. On Wednesday, Patrick Mahomes said Hill "was exhausted out there" last week. With a full week of recovery, Hill should be better as he faces the Bengals in Week 17. It'll be a favorable matchup as the Bengals have given up the 7th-most average fantasy points to wide receivers over the past four weeks. With Hill's ceiling, he should be viewed as a strong WR1 play in Week 17.

KC WR Tyreek Hill - Week 16 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

Tyreek Hill was placed on the team's COVID/Reserve list heading into his Week 16 matchup vs. the Steelers. Since he's vaccinated, there's a chance he's able to be cleared by the time the game starts. But there's also a chance he draws an inactive tag. We'll keep Hill's Week 16 fantasy situation short and sweet. If he's active, start him as your WR1. If he's not active, don't start him.

KC WR Tyreek Hill - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Los Angeles Chargers

Tyreek Hill had a productive Week 14 considering the circumstances. Patrick Mahomes threw the ball a season-low 24 times, and pulled their starters following a blowout. Despite that, Hill finished 4-74 on four targets. He did play a season-low 67% of the offensive snaps because of the blowout. Hill should see more playing time this week in what should be a good game against the Chargers. Hill wasn't too dominant in his first matchup vs. the Chargers this season, finishing 5-56 on seven targets. We expect Hill to be a little more productive than that this week, more closely finishing with his receiving average of 79.2 yards per game. He does face a tough Chargers defense, though. L.A. has given up the second-fewest average fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. But Hill has been too productive this season to ignore at this point in the year. He should be viewed as a must-start option at WR.

KC WR Tyreek Hill - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Patrick Mahomes' struggles this season finally caught up with Tyreek Hill last week. Mahomes finished below 200 pass yards, which left little production for Kansas City's playmakers. As a result, Hill finished 2-22 on five targets, his second-worst game of the season. To be fair to Hill and Mahomes, it was a tough matchup against the Broncos. Things will get much easier this week against the Raiders, a team we've already seen Hill have success against. While the Raiders are a tough matchup on paper, we saw Hill go off for a 7-83-2 stat line in his previous game against them this season. Look for Hill to bounce back from a bad performance last week, and trust him as your WR1.
