Tyreek Hill's Status Uncertain for Monday Night Football Against Rams
Wide Receiver Listed as Game-Time Decision
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is listed as a game-time decision for Monday night's matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Hill suffered a foot injury in the Dolphins' Week 14 victory over the Buffalo Bills and has not practiced fully this week.
If Hill is unable to play, it would be a significant blow to the Dolphins' offense. Hill is one of the most dynamic playmakers in the NFL, and he leads the Dolphins with 1,081 receiving yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Austin Jackson Placed on Injured Reserve
In addition to Hill's injury, the Dolphins also placed starting left tackle Austin Jackson on injured reserve on Saturday. Jackson suffered an ankle injury in the Bills game and will miss the rest of the season.
The loss of Jackson is another blow to the Dolphins' offensive line, which has been struggling all season. The Dolphins have allowed 34 sacks this season, which is the second-most in the NFL.
Dolphins Hoping for Positive Injury News
The Dolphins will be hoping to get some positive injury news on Hill and Jackson before Monday night's game. If Hill is able to play, it would give the Dolphins a much-needed boost on offense. If Jackson is unable to play, the Dolphins will need to find a way to protect quarterback Tua Tagovailoa against a Rams defense that has 33 sacks this season.
The Dolphins are currently 8-5 and in the hunt for a playoff spot. A win against the Rams would be a big step towards securing a postseason berth.
