Dolphins’ Tyreek Hill, De’Von Achane get injury updates for Week 1 vs. Colts image

Two of the Miami Dolphins' most important players are on the Week 1 injury report ahead of Sunday's season opener against the Indianapolis Colts.

Those two: offensive firepower Tyreek Hill and De'Von Achane.

NFL teams playing on Sunday put out their first official injury reports of the week on Wednesday, as will be the case all season.

And the Dolphins had a lot of names, none bigger than this duo.

Tyreek Hill injury update

Tyreek Hill is dealing with both an oblique injury and a calf injury, per the injury report.

He was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. That usually bodes well for being active on Sunday.

Hill is 31, and he's coming off his first sub-1000-yard season since 2019. Hill really struggled, as did the rest of the Dolphins, when Tua Tagovailoa was out injured.

De'Von Achane injury update

De'Von Achane is dealing with a calf injury.

He was limited at Wednesday's practice, according to the Dolphins' injury report.

Most likely, that means he'll be good to go Sunday.

Last season, Achane ran for 907 yards and also caught 78 passes for 592 yards.

Ollie Gordon is slated to be his backup this week in the rookie's NFL debut.
