Will Tyreek Hill play in Week 3?

Since Hill hasn’t made an appearance on the Dolphins’ injury list this week, he is expected to make an appearance during Thursday Night Football. In addition to playing, he may even be slated to play a bigger role if Jaylen Wright is unable to play due to his knee injury. Needless to say, the team needs all hands on deck as they reel from having lost both games played so far in this season.

This season, Hill scored a team-best record of 149 yards receiving (74.5 per game) via 10 catches (13 targets). Here are his week-by-week game logs, as reported by USA Today:

Week 1 at Colts: 6 TAR, 4 REC, 40 YDS, 0 TD

Week 2 vs. Patriots: 7 TAR, 6 REC, 109 YDS, 0 TD
