Fins WR Hill trains; RB Wright undergoes procedure

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill participated in a limited capacity on Thursday and is expected to be available for the regular-season opener against the Indianapolis Colts, according to coach Mike McDaniel.

Hill has been sidelined for the last three weeks due to what McDaniel referred to as an oblique injury, but Miami has taken precautions to avoid any setbacks.

The Dolphins’ top receiver «looks fantastic» despite the missed time, McDaniel stated.

However, Miami will be without running back Jaylen Wright for the near future. McDaniel indicated that the second-year running back underwent a «minor procedure» for a lower leg injury that is not season-ending but may keep him out for the first month of the season.
