Wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle return to practice for the Dolphins after injuries.

Why it matters: The return of Hill and Waddle provides a significant boost to the Dolphins' receiving corps as they prepare for the upcoming season.

What's new: Both players participated in practice without wearing non-contact jerseys, indicating that they are fully recovered from their respective injuries.

  • Waddle had been dealing with undisclosed injuries throughout the summer and was held out of preseason games.
  • Hill missed all three preseason games and a joint practice due to a thumb injury.

Yes, but: While their return is positive news, it remains to be seen how quickly they can regain their form and chemistry with their quarterbacks.

What to watch: Keep an eye on their performance in upcoming practices and preseason games to assess their readiness for the regular season.

Quotes:

  • Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel expressed confidence in the starting offensive line and the contingency plans in place.
  • McDaniel on the offensive line: "I feel great about our starting offensive line. I also feel great about the contingencies that we have in place, should we have a different version of that this week."

The bottom line: The return of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle brings back two dynamic playmakers for the Dolphins' offense, adding depth and versatility to their receiving options.
