Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is dealing with an oblique injury, head coach Mike McDaniel revealed on Friday.
Hill was on the practice field but not in pads as the Dolphins prepared for a joint session with the Chicago Bears in Lake Forest, Ill.
“It got worse because he was taking every rep that was on the books,” McDaniel said of Hill, 31, who was absent from Wednesday’s practice.
Given the injury, Hill is unlikely to play in Sunday’s preseason opener at Chicago. The Dolphins open up the regular season at Indianapolis on Sept. 7.
Hill only missed one game in his first three seasons with Miami, catching 319 passes for 4,468 yards and 26 scores in 50 starts from 2022-24.
The five-time All-Pro and eight-time Pro Bowl selection has 798 receptions for 11,098 yards and 82 touchdowns in 141 career games (123 starts) with the Kansas City Chiefs (2016-21) and Dolphins.
