Deep Dive
Why are the Miami Dolphins struggling on offense this season?
The Dolphins' offense has been inconsistent since the second half of last year, with issues persisting despite the return of Tua Tagovailoa. The team has faced challenges in adapting their timing offense, and the presence of multiple receiving options like Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, and Mike Gesicki has made the offense less dependent on any single player, including Hill.
What is the outlook for Tyreek Hill's fantasy value for the rest of the season?
