Week 9 in the NFL has an interesting slate of games, but the clear marquee matchup features the Miami Dolphins facing off against the Kansas City Chiefs in a game played in Germany.

That game features one of this week's most intriguing storylines, but fantasy football managers are also going to have to get creative with their lineups as some key teams will be on bye this week. The Detroit Lions, Denver Broncos, Jacksonville Jaguars and San Francisco 49ers all have the week off.

That leaves many fantasy teams without some of their top players. Here are five storylines to consider this week, aside from the byes.

Tyreek Hill goes up against former team for the first time

For six seasons, Tyreek Hill was an absolute fantasy football monster catching passes for the Kansas City Chiefs, most of which came from Patrick Mahomes. But during the offseason ahead of the 2022 campaign, he was very surprisingly traded to the Miami Dolphins.

Somehow, he has become an even bigger fantasy weapon in South Beach and now, gets to go against his former team for the first time since that deal was made. Hill has already made some bold statements this week.

Throw in the fact that this game will be played on a neutral site, and this is easily the most intriguing storyline of the week. Hill has already posted insane numbers through eight games this season, can he do it to his former team?
