Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill raised eyebrows at the end of the 2024 season when he suggested he wanted a trade from the team after they missed the playoffs.
Hill told reporters he was “out” after the Dolphins lost to the New York Jets and lost a playoff spot to the Denver Broncos. He explained to ESPN on Saturday that he was frustrated with how the season went and chose to express it in a questionable way.

“What you had heard at the end of the season was frustration,” he said. “I’ve won my whole life, bruh. You don’t get it, I beat my ass every day. I deserve to feel like that; I deserve to have some kind of meaning.
“You guys just want me to say, ‘Oh well, get them next year?’ Nah, f— we’ve got to put some pressure on mom—-. —- dogs in this b—- I compete, I love to compete, bruh.”

Rumors swirled immediately after he made the comments, suggesting he was requesting a trade. But Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said no such request was made.
Hill’s agent Drew Rosenhaus said on “The Pat McAfee Show” earlier this month that he believed Hill was committed to the Dolphins, although he did not speak to him on the matter.
The star wide receiver came up short of 1,000 yards receiving as the Dolphins faced injuries at quarterback. Hill had 81 catches for 959 yards and six touchdowns. He had four consecutive seasons of at least 1,000 yards before 2024.
