The Miami Dolphins have a big divisional matchup with the New York Jets on Sunday in Week 5, and it appears they will have star wide receiver Tyreek Hill in the lineup.
Hill, who was added to the injury report on Thursday with a quad issue, practicing on a limited basis, is expected to play as long as he doesn't suffer a pregame setback, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Dolphins’ WRs Tyreek Hill (quad) and Jaylen Waddle (groin), both listed as questionable for Sunday, both are expected to play vs. the Jets barring any pregame setbacks, per sources.

This is good news for Hill prop bettors, Dolphins bettors and any Hill fantasy owners. With the Dolphins starting backup quarterback Teddy Bridgewater in Week 5, having Hill on the outside should make things easier, as the Jets are going to commit the necessary resources to keeping him in check on Sunday.
Hill is currently (+120) at PointsBet to score a touchdown in Week 5. His receiving prop at FanDuel Sportsbook currently sits at 71.5 yards, with the OVER slightly juiced at -122 odds. The Dolphins are also road favorites as of this writing against the Jets.
Despite being limited this week at practice, Hill appeared "fine" according to beat reporter Safid Deen.
#Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill (quad) was limited at Thursday's practice, but appeared fine otherwise. One injury of concern is CB Xavien Howard (groins), who missed his second straight day of practice and in question for Sunday's game vs. #Jets.

Having Hill to stretch the field should help Bridgewater immensely against a Jets team that has been competitive this season with a 2-2 record. On the season, Hill leads the NFL with 477 receiving yards. He has 31 receptions and two touchdowns through four games.
