MIAMI Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill brutally opened up on his future with his current team.
The eight-time NFL Pro Bowler indicated that his time with the Miami Dolphins could end after the squad’s season ended on Sunday with a 32-20 loss to the New York Jets.
Hill was candid when speaking to reporters after the road loss in the season-finale game.
“This is my first time I haven’t been in the playoffs,” the 30-year-old Miami wideout said.
“I just gotta do what’s best for me and my family. If that’s here or wherever the case may be, I’m finna open that door for myself. I’m opening the door. I’m out, bro.”
“It was great playing here, but at the end of the day, bro, I got to do what’s best for my career. I’m too much of a competitor to be just out there.”
Hill acknowledged the loss of the quarterback Tua Tagovailoa during the year, saying it “sucks” to be without the 2023 Pro Bowler after he appeared in just 11 games due to a concussion and a hip injury.
Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel responded to Hill’s comments about suggesting to move on from the organization when asked by reporters and plans to speak with his player soon.
“I’m not going to [put] too much weight on second-hand, postgame disappointment statements,” McDaniel said.
“We will see how (the) next couple days progress in convos with him and I.”
Hill wasn’t done stirring the pot about his uncertain future with the Dolphins.
On Monday, he changed his X profile picture to his face photoshopped on the body of Antonio Brown from when the former NFL star ran off the field for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2022.
Hill recorded just two receptions for 20 yards in Sunday’s game.
He finished the season with 81 receptions for 959 yards and six touchdowns.
It was Hill’s first team not eclipsing 1,000 receiving yards since 2019 when he was with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The nine-year NFL veteran revealed to reporters that he had been dealing with a wrist injury throughout the 2024 campaign, and he was taken out of Sunday’s game to avoid aggravating the injury.
The move was made after it was determined that Miami would miss the postseason after the Denver Broncos beat the Chiefs to claim the final playoff spot.
Hill is under contract for the next two seasons and is set to earn $27.7 in 2025.
The 30-year-old asked out of Kansas City and was traded to Miami before the 2022 campaign.
Since then, the Chiefs have won two Super Bowls and are currently the No. 1 seed in the AFC.
The Dolphins haven’t won a playoff game during his tenure with the team and Hill is coming off his worst full-season statistically.
Miami finished the season with an 8-9 record and at one point was 2-6.
Hill is a year removed from posting a career-high 1,799 receiving yards.
