Tyreek Hill Has High Praise for Tua Tagovailoa After Another Standout Performance

Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill enjoyed another big game on Sunday against the Commanders. After his two-touchdown performance, Hill gave all the credit to Miami’s quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, heaping praise on the 25-year-old.

In a post on X, Hill boldly stated that Tagovailoa is the world’s best quarterback. 

“Tua is the best in the weld,” wrote Hill.

Tagovailoa completed 18-of-24 passes for 280 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 13 win against Washington. Hill had five receptions, 157 yards, and was the recipient of both of his quarterback’s touchdown passes.

The win saw the Dolphins improve to 9–3 on the year and although many have floated Hill as a potential MVP candidate, he believes it’s his quarterback who deserves further accreditation. 

Earlier this week, Hill said that he was unhappy being Patrick Mahomes’s “side chick” in Kansas City with Travis Kelce also in the picture. That is not an issue in Miami, as Hill has caught 12 of Tagovailoa’s 24 touchdown passes this season and has a target share of more than 30%.

The Dolphins’ duo is clearly in sync right now, and Hill couldn’t help but talk up his quarterback on social media after the team’s third consecutive win.
