Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle returned to practice on Monday.

Coach Mike McDaniel told reporters there were "no setbacks" for either of his star players.

Hill has been dealing with a thumb injury, while Waddle's specific injury has not been disclosed.

The Dolphins open the season Sunday at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The first Week 1 injury report will be released Wednesday.

Hill, 30, led the NFL with 1,799 yards on 119 receptions and tied for the league lead with 13 touchdown catches in 16 starts last season. It was the sixth 1,000-yard season for the five-time first-team All-Pro.

Waddle, 25, posted his third 1,000-yard campaign in as many seasons in 2023, finishing with 72 catches for 1,014 yards and four touchdowns in 14 starts.

Also returning to practice from injuries on Monday were center Aaron Brewer (hand) and defensive tackle Benito Jones (undisclosed).
