Tyreek Hill Set to Play, Jaylen Waddle Out for Dolphins' Pivotal Game Against 49ers
Miami's playoff hopes hang in the balance as they face San Francisco with a depleted wide receiver corps.
- Tyreek Hill, listed as questionable due to a wrist injury and personal matters, is expected to play in Week 16 against the 49ers.
- Jaylen Waddle has been ruled out due to a knee injury sustained in last week's game against the Texans, leaving Miami shorthanded at wide receiver.
- The Dolphins will rely on rookie Malik Washington, veteran River Cracraft, and recently elevated Erik Ezukanma to support Hill in the passing game.
- Miami faces a must-win scenario to keep their playoff hopes alive, needing victories in their final three games and help from other teams' losses to secure a wild card spot.
- The Dolphins' offense has struggled recently, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's performance under scrutiny after a three-interception outing last week.
