Tyreek Hill expected to play despite foot injury; Tua Tagovailoa's return provides a much-needed boost for the struggling Dolphins offense.

Why it matters: Hill's presence on the field gives the Dolphins a dynamic playmaker and deep threat, while Tagovailoa's return brings stability and leadership to the quarterback position.

  • The Dolphins have struggled offensively in Tagovailoa's absence, ranking last in scoring, 31st in offensive expected points added, and 29th in yards per game.
  • Hill's production has also suffered without Tagovailoa, as he is on pace for his lowest receiving yardage total since his rookie season.

What's new: Despite a foot injury, Hill is expected to suit up and play against the Arizona Cardinals. Additionally, Tagovailoa has been activated from the concussion protocol and could reunite with Hill on the field.

Yes, but: While Hill's return is undoubtedly positive news for the Dolphins, they still face challenges in turning their offense around.

  • The offensive struggles cannot be solely attributed to Tagovailoa's absence, as the team has faced issues with protection, run game efficiency, and receiver separation.

What to watch: The chemistry between Hill and Tagovailoa will be a key factor to monitor in this game.

  • Hill expressed excitement about reconnecting with Tagovailoa and their ability to connect on deep shots during practice.
  • Their rapport and synchronization will be crucial in rejuvenating the Dolphins' passing attack.

What's next: With Tagovailoa back in the lineup, the Dolphins hope to revitalize their offense and improve their overall performance.

  • The team will rely on Hill's explosive speed and playmaking ability to stretch the field and create opportunities for big plays.

The bottom line: The return of both Tyreek Hill and Tua Tagovailoa brings optimism to the Miami Dolphins as they seek to turn their offensive struggles around and find success on the field.
