Dolphins’ Tyreek Hill Needed Just Eight Games to Make Wild NFL History

Each week, Tyreek Hill continues to display why he is one of the most dynamic and explosive wide receivers in the NFL.

When the Dolphins took the field at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday for their final AFC East clash against the Patriots this season, the Miami wideout built a stronger case for his goal of becoming the first player in league history to surpass 2,000 receiving yards.

During the third quarter of Sunday’s game, Hill eclipsed 1,000 receiving yards in only eight games this season, becoming the first player in the Super Bowl era to accomplish the feat. Currently, Hill has seven receptions for 103 yards and one touchdown while averaging 14.6 yards per catch as the Dolphins lead the Patriots, 24-10, in the fourth quarter.
