Tyreek Hill’s agent takes swipe at Dolphins after receiver was accused of quitting on team in season finale

Tyreek Hill's agent takes swipe at Dolphins after receiver was accused of quitting on team in season finale

It’s hard to tell if Tyreek Hill is staying or leave in South Beach. 

The mercurial wideout told reporters after the Dolphins’ season-ending loss to the New York Jets that he’s ‘out’ of Miami.

Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel seemed to confirm as much in the post-game press conference, when he implied the star wide receiver took himself out of Sunday’s game in the third quarter. Even some eagle-eyed fans claim to have spotted the moment Hill allegedly quit on the team.

Even Hill’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, was compelled to take an apparent swipe at the team during Thursday’s interview with ESPN’s Pat McAfee.

‘I believe that Tyreek is a great ᴀsset to the Dolphins,’ Rosenhaus said, ‘and I think that he’s the least guy that people should be worried about for this organization. They have more worries. Tyreek Hill is not one of them.’

Rosenhaus did not go into detail about what the Dolphins’ other concerns are, but somehow, despite all the evidence to the contrary, he remains confident Hill wants to stay in Miami.

‘What you see with Tyreek is very genuine,’ Rosenhaus said. ‘He wants to win. It’s not good enough for him not to make the playoffs. He is very pᴀssionate. I think at the end of the day, he is committed to this Dolphins football team.’ 

Rosenhaus also said Hill played through a broken wrist the entire season after suffering the injury in training camp during a scrimmage against Washington.

Doctors at the time recommended season-ending wrist surgery, which Hill declined, according to Rosenhaus.

‘The doctors all said: ‘It’s going to be painful. It could impact your entire career. If you don’t get it done now, you may not be able to fix it all the way,’ Rosenhaus said. ‘Tyreek said: ‘Hey, to heck with it. I’m a team guy, I’m going for it.’

Hill had one of the least productive seasons of his nine-year career in 2024. His 959 yards were his fewest since injuries limited him to 860 yards in 12 games with Kansas City in 2019. His 81 catches were also his fewest since he had 58 that season.

After catching two pᴀsses on three targets for 20 yards in a Week 18 loss to the Jets that eliminated Miami from postseason contention, a frustrated Hill hinted at a potential split from the team he’s played for the last three seasons.

‘I’m out, bro. It was great playing here,’ Hill said, ‘but at the end of the day, I’ve got to do what’s best for my career. … I’m too much of a compeтιтor to be just out there.’

Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel downplayed Hill’s comments as an emotional reaction to a disappointing season right after the game. Hill pulled himself out of the game late in the third quarter.

McDaniel and Hill had an hourlong conversation to ‘clear the air’ the next day. McDaniel said he told Hill it was unacceptable for him to leave the game. Hill also spoke with general manager Chris Grier, who said the receiver never formally asked for a trade.
