The last time Tyreek Hill was on the field for an NFL team, he was being carted off after suffering a devastating knee injury with the Miami Dolphins in 2025. Since then we've seen him rehabbing his knee as fans wonder what might be some landing spotsfor the once-speedy veteran wideout.
And then? On Monday, he posted this on X (formerly Twitter): "It’s almost time to get off the couch and get to work." Did that mean more training for an NFL comeback? Or that he's maybe signing with a team that needs a wideout soon? It's hard to tell.
While we wait, it's worth asking: Should you pick him up onthe fantasy football waiver wire as we see if he's coming back?

Is Tyreek Hill worth a fantasy football waiver wire pickup?
My answer, for now: No, unless you
truly have room on your bench in a very deep league. We've got one week until the byes start, and that's when your bench spots will be way more valuable. If you can't stash Hill in your IR spot, then he's taking up some serious real estate.
Plus: Will he be the same wideout that he was before the knee injury? He's certainly not in his prime anymore. So I'll pass and maybe be quick to grab him as a free agent if he signs somewhere out of nowhere. But otherwise? Leave him out there.
