The Miami Dolphins (8-9) simply hardly lost out on the playoffs this season, completing 10th in the AFC after going into Week 18 in 8th location.
Regardless of clawing back into the postseason discussion after numerous injuries hindered the lineup, one star gamer appears to desire out of Miami.

“I'm out brother,” Hill stated (h/t The Miami Herald's Omar Kelly). “It was fantastic playing here however at the end of the day I got ta do what's finest for my profession.”
Speculation flooded the web over whether Hill was severe about leaving till he appeared to verify his objectives with a post on X quickly after.

The last straw for Hill seemed when he understood that Miami's opportunities of making the playoffs were shot throughout the video game.
He informed press reporters he searched for at the scoreboard and saw Kansas City was losing late, mentioning that being why he pulled himself from having fun with an expected wrist injury. A Chiefs triumph coupled with a Dolphins win would've seen Miami into the last AFC playoff area.
Hill ended up the year with 939 backyards and simply 6 goals, just the 2nd time in his profession he's accumulated under 1,000 getting lawns. It needs to be kept in mind beginning quarterback Tua Tagovailoa missed out on 5 video games with a concussion suffered in Week 2 and did not play Weeks 17 or 18 either.
“It draws, guy, missing out on QB1, guy,” Hill stated about why this season was frustrating. “It actually harms a lot.”
Head coach Mike McDaniel stated in his post-game press conference that he was notified Hill made himself not available in the 4th quarter and chose to continue calling have fun with who was (h/t ESPN's Marcel Lewis-Jacques).
asked McDaniel if he accepts that kind of habits from a group captain, if Tyreek Hill's schedule wasn't injury associated:
“I'm not going to match feeling with feeling … it's a little cloudy in the heat of the minute for several factors. I understand that clearness will be discovered.” https://t.co/pjDutLqm8k

It's prematurely to inform if Hill will ask for a trade or release from the group. His present agreement goes through the 2026-27 season, and there is no escape hatch up until after next season.
Groups and fans alike will be keeping track of the circumstance with terrific interest, as Hill is still a playmaker who can improve an offense significantly.
