After missing the Titans game due to an ankle injury, Tyreek Hill is back for the Dolphins.

Due to an ankle injury, wide receiver Tyreek Hill of the Miami Dolphins missed the majority of Monday’s game against the Tennessee Titans. He did, however, make a comeback in the third quarter.

In the first quarter, he was awkwardly tackled and injured his ankle. Sean Murphy-Bunting tackled him, pinning his left leg beneath his body. After the hit, Hill slowly stood up, clutching his leg.

The Dolphins listed him as questionable to return due to an ankle injury, so he made a quick trip to the medical tent before coming back to stand on the sidelines without his helmet.

Without him on the field, Miami’s offense faltered and failed to score, sending the Dolphins into halftime behind, 10-7. Zach Sieler, a defensive lineman, picked up Will Levis for the Dolphins’ lone touchdown inside the Tennessee five-yard line.

A notoriously explosive Dolphins offense amassed 175 yards in the first half. With the majority of the half spent sidelined, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa completed 9 of 13 passes for 84 yards without his main target.

Hill returned to the field for Miami’s second drive of the half with the score tied at 10, but he did not join the Dolphins offense to begin the second half.

The article NFL Power Rankings: 49ers’ position following victory over the Seahawks first aired on NBC Sports Bay Area.

Mitchell Trubisky gave the Bears a crucial win in draft positioning on Thursday night against the New England Patriots, kicking off Week 14 of the 2023 NFL season.

At the end of the weekend, the Dallas Cowboys defeated the Philadelphia Eagles on “Sunday Night Football,” thereby establishing themselves as genuine Super Bowl contenders. The 49ers, Eagles, and Cowboys are atop the NFC at 10-3 with four weeks remaining.

In the AFC, Jake Browning was still cooking in Cincinnati, and the Baltimore Ravens pulled through a scare against the Los Angeles Rams. As the Chiefs lost 20-17 to the Bengals, Patrick Mahomes’ annoyance reached a boiling point in Kansas City after a crucial offensive offsides call erased a potential game-winning touchdown.

The Bears easily defeated the Detroit Lions, who were leading the division, in Chicago after going on the bye. With the defense clicking and Justin Fields playing brilliant football, the Bears think they can run the table and unexpectedly make the playoffs.

A rise in the power rankings will have to do for the time being.

After Sunday’s Week 14 action, these are each team’s current positions:

32. Carolina Panthers (1-12): With this interim coaching staff, Bryce Young’s development is unlikely. All he can do is hope to make it through and avoid forming bad habits that will ruin his bright future.

31. New England Patriots (3-10): On Thursday night in Pittsburgh, Ezekiel Elliott resembled the classic Zeke. This offseason, a rejuvenated Zeke ought to be somewhat valuable on the free-agent market.

30. Arizona Cardinals (3-10): The Cardinals had a huge victory during their bye week when they were able to tie for the second overall pick once again after the Patriots’ victory over the Steelers.

29. Tennessee Titans (4-8): Mike Vrabel is capable of extracting the maximum performance from any team, but this Titans group is a walking corpse with no more juice to squeeze. Toward 2024.

28. Washington Commanders (4–9): Maybe the Commanders can figure out a way to include Terry McLaurin in the offense during their week off. Alternatively, the coaching staff could simply use their agents to leak information about potential post-season hiring interest from other teams. In D.C., there’s a race to escape the sinking rowboat.

27. New York Giants (4-8): With the Giants, Tommy DeVito has already established himself as a cult hero. A victory on “Monday Night Football” could catapult the rising legend to unprecedented levels of success.

26. Las Vegas Raiders (5-8): In Las Vegas, Aidan O’Connell isn’t the long-term solution. Antonio Pierce isn’t, in my opinion either. For the Silver and Black, another fresh start is imminent.

25. Los Angeles Chargers (5-8): The Chargers have no choice but to give Jim Harbaugh a blank check.

New York Jets (5-8): On Sunday, Zach Wilson exhibited a competitive edge and may have played his best game to date. Wilson was free to play, particularly when the Jets allowed him to throw on first downs. How come this wasn’t here earlier in the season?

23. Saints of New Orleans (6-7): Alright, so perhaps Derek Carr isn’t the answer the Saints were hoping for. We attempted to inform you.

22. Falcons of Atlanta (6-7): The Panthers are the next team on the schedule, which is good news for the Falcons. The unfavorable report? Atlanta has the ability to lose to anybody.

21. Tampa Bay Bucs (6-7): The NFC South teams will be grouped together. This season, I’ve liked the Bucs the most. Out of the three, they have the best quarterback and the best playmaker. Give me Baker in the final moments.

20. Chicago Bears (5-8): In early October, it was unthinkable that the Bears would be in this situation. All the credit for keeping the team cohesive and building a defense that the Bears consider to be close to elite should go to Matt Eberflus. It has undoubtedly been acting that way during the previous few games. The playoff conversation will begin to gain traction if the Bears defeat the Browns the following week.

19. Seattle Seahawks (6-7): The Seahawks went into this difficult four-game stretch with the intention of maintaining their 2-2 record. They have dropped their opening three games, and Geno Smith’s availability for next week’s game is in doubt. The Seahawks’ chances of making the playoffs are about to expire.

18. Pittsburgh Steelers (7-6): On Thursday night, Mitchell Trubisky finally got the Bears a victory as they defeated the New England Patriots. At this rate, Chicago could secure the top pick by Christmas.

17. Minnesota Vikings (7-6): So much for Kevin O’Connell, the Vikings coach, saying that his team’s offensive changes would play to Joshua Dobbs’ strengths. On Sunday, Nick Mullens kept the Vikings alive. Their chances of making the playoffs are not good.

16. Indianapolis Colts (7-6): With games against the Steelers, Falcons, Raiders, and Texans up ahead, Indianapolis still has a reasonable schedule. However, there is cause for concern given the Colts’ startling lack of pass-rush production on Sunday against the Bengals. It appears that Shane Steichen and Gardner Minshew ought to do us a favor and get out of the playoff picture as soon as possible.

15. Los Angeles Rams (6-7): The Rams’ loss to the Ravens on Sunday hurt their chances of making the playoffs. However, they still have one game left against a team that has a winning record, so their fate is still up in the air.

14. Cincinnati Bengals (7-6): In back-to-back games, the Bengals have scored 30 points while starting quarterback Jake Browning. Cincy might not be dead after all.

13. Green Bay Packers (6-6): Earlier in the season, I dismissed Jordan Love prematurely. Once again, it appears that the Packers have played their cards perfectly.

12. Denver Broncos (7-6): Vance Joseph, the defensive coordinator, was on borrowed time when the Broncos defense was in total disarray earlier in the season. However, Denver’s defense has improved, giving up just 12 touchdowns and recording 18 interceptions in their last eight games. With a 7-6 record, the once-disregarded defense could lead Russell Wilson and Sean Payton to the postseason.
