He hauled in seven receptions for 130 yards and a touchdown in Week 1, the only game the two played in full together, and added another 24 yards on three catches before Tagovailoa suffered his concussion in a 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills.
Since then, Hill has gone scoreless with Skylar Thompson, Tyler Huntley and Tim Boyle behind center. He’s managed just 14 catches and 140 yards combined, with last week’s game against the Colts representing a new low — one catch for 8 yards.
It’s little wonder, then, that Hill was practically giddy Wednesday ahead of Tagovailoa’s impending return, when the eight-time Pro Bowler told fantasy owners to start him because, “We’re back, baby.”
That was before a foot injury seemingly threatened the reunion.
Luckily, Hill will get his wish, and Tagovailoa gets to shake off the rust throwing to his top target.
They’ll have to click again quickly — the Dolphins are currently 2-4 and looking up at the runaway 5-2 Buffalo Bills in the division.
