Tyreek Hill injury update: Adam Schefter reveals likely diagnosis for Dolphins WR after leaving for hospital

Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill is believed to have suffered a dislocated knee, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Hill exited Monday night’s contest against the New York Jets, being carted off the field and later transported to a local hospital.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported that a dislocated knee is “far worse than a dislocated knee cap, (and) often comes with multiple ligament tears.” Hill has unsurprisingly been ruled out for the remainder of Monday’s game.

The injury occurred during the third quarter as he was tackled and landed awkwardly. His leg was visibly bent in an unnatural position even after the play as it was one of the more gruesome looking injuries we’ve seen in a while. He waved to fans at Hard Rock Stadium as the cart took him away.

Prior to his injury, Hill led the Dolphins with six receptions for 67 yards. The eight-time Pro Bowler had 15 catches for 198 yards and a touchdown through the first three games of this season.

It certainly looks like a season-ending injury for Hill, a devastating outcome for both he and the Dolphins. Hill, the  NFL ‘s leading receiver in 2023, was looking to bounce back after a disappointing 2024 campaign.

With Hill out, Miami is down its biggest weapon on offense. They will look for  Jaylen Waddle ,  Malik Washington  and  Nick Westbrook-Ikhine  to step up in his absence.

Miami was off to an 0-3 start to this season entering Sunday’s contest and now face an even bigger uphill battle to turn things around in light of the injury to Hill. They led 27-13 and looked on their way to the first victory of the season with two minutes remaining in Monday’s game.
