Tyreek Hill says FedEx Field was like a home game for Dolphins

Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill looked like he was at home in Miami’s 45-15 win over the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Hill caught five passes for 157 yards and two touchdowns. His two touchdowns were for 78 and 60 yards.

Hill probably could have had a lot more against Washington, but Miami head coach Mike McDaniel took it easy on the Commanders in the second half.

On this week’s episode of “Hard Knocks,” the cameras looked back at Miami’s preparation for the Commanders last week and filmed through Sunday’s game at FedEx Field.

The Commanders announced a sixth consecutive sellout at FedEx Field on Saturday, but it was clear by game time on Sunday many of those tickets sold went to Dolphins fans.

After the game, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa noticed, thanking Miami fans for coming to the game.

On the new episode of “Hard Knocks,” Hill had the following to say when seeing all the aqua, orange and blue in the stands.

“It’s like a home game,” Hill said. “Look at all these Fins fans in here, man.”

You can watch the episode here, with Hill’s comments coming at around the 24:39 mark.

It was another embarrassing scene for Washington on its home field. It’s expected that Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Dallas, New York Giants, or even Green Bay fans to invade FedEx Field, but seeing so many Miami fans was surprising.

Owner Josh Harris has his hands full. Fortunately for Washington fans, a new era will begin in exactly one month.
