It was a gruesome injury- i could not watch the replay after seeing it in real time.
Players are smarter than the owners. They demand new contracts before the old ones expire knowing these injuries can come along and empty their bargaining power. Tyreek-$90 million with 54 million guaranteed. If he doesn’t play again that 54 million will come in handy while the league goes downhill. Injuries, bad calls, stupid penalties all keep the better teams from beating the bad teams. That’s just the way the NFL wants it. Soon there will be 18 games and more injuries. A season ending injury is a blessing in disguise for too many players. Same with playing poorly after cashing in.
I sure hope the Dolphins burn those hideous uniforms they wore last night.
That’s what the Long Term Injured Reserve tag is for. It takes the player’s income out of their salary cap calculations. And with him questionable for next year, that’s definitely an LTIR candidate.
NFL—Not For Long.
That injury is going to cut into the free time he has to speed around the stadium and ignore lawful orders from law enforcement.
Terrible news for Hill, for the Dolphins and for the NFL. He’s one of the fastest and most exciting receivers in the game, and the NFL is not known for excitement these days.

Standard NFL story. He got his big pay-day.
He’ll be out 1 year rehabbing his knee. He’ll be 32 at that point, and his performance won’t be where he was when was 25.
Dolphins will cut him, and some other team will pick him up as #3 or #4 WR for $ a couple million
He’ll then be out of the league within 2 years.
Hill destroyed that knee. I thought he was a jackass but no athlete deserves an injury like that. I doubt he comes back.
