Tyreek Hill to Social media to address reports of being potentially cut by the Miami Dolphins. As per NFL reporter Omar Kelly, the veteran wide receiver, who is out with a season-wrapping injury, might be the victim of the team's tactics to create cap space.
"Tyreek will be cut for cap space and he has a MASSIV rehab ahead of him. If he took out an insurance policy it might be more financially beneficial to cash out and retire," Kelly said.
Five-time All-Pro responded to Kelly's tweet with a five-word message.
"Omar you don't know shiii"
Tyreek Hill picked up a devastating knee injury during their 27-21 win over the New York Jets in Week 4. He tore multiple ligaments and underwent surgery the day after. Thus, the wide receiver will miss out on the rest of the 2025 season.
After starting his NFL career with the Chiefs, Hill was traded to the Dolphins in 2022. He agreed to a four-year extension worth $120 million with the team.

Tyreek Hill hits at potential retirement following season ending injury
Last month, the experienced wide receiver appeared on "The Set" podcast with former teammate, Terron Armstead. During this conversation, Hill discussed the possibility of retirement instead of returning to the gridiron next year.
"I feel like that decision is all based upon how I feel and where my mindset is at the moment," Hill said. "Like right now, I'm happy. I'm happy being with my kids. I'm happy with the career that I've had.
"I love playing football. ...But, it take a lot. It takes a lot to be the best and to stay at the top and make a lot of money and help your team win games and stuff like that. ... It takes a lot on you mentally, takes a lot on you physically. ... I don't want to make any rash decisions, obviously."
Last season, after the Dolphins' final game against the Jets and a disappointing 8-9 record without a playoff appearance, Tyreek Hill generated headlines for expressing his frustration and hinting that he wanted to get out of the team. However, he later clarified his stance and returned to play another year at Miami.
This season, the Dolphins are once again struggling on the pitch. Mike McDaniel's job security is in question after the team fired GM Chris Grier after a disappointing 207 record going into Sunday's game against the Bills.
