Miami Dolphins fleet receiver Tyreek Hill has been playing with a torn ligament in his wrist. Despite the discomfort, Hill says he will not have surgery until after the season, if he does undergo a procedure.
“At the end of the day, I just got to suck it up and just deal with the pain,” Hill said Thursday. “It’s going to get worse the more I play, but I got to [gut] it out for my team. I’m here, I’m locked in no matter what, no matter how I feel. So even if I’ve got to cut my wrist off, I’m still out there because I love the game of football.
“Surgery was brought up and it was talked about whenever I talked to a few of the doctors, but it’s my call at the end of the day, and my call is to stay out on the field.”
This has been a sluggish year for Miami’s offense and Hill.
When Tua Tagovailoa went out for several weeks with a concussion, the offense went stagnant.
Hill is coming off three consecutive 100-catch seasons. After nine games in 2024, he has 37 catches for 462 yards and two touchdowns.
