Tyreek Hill is seeking more money from the Miami Dolphins this offseason, but it sounds like he still wants to be a member of the team until he retires from the league.
During a press conference on Tuesday, Tyreek Hill made it very clear that he has decided he wants to remain with the Miami Dolphins for the remainder of his career, even if that does not allow him to maximize his earning potential. Hill said his “No. 1 priority” is “ensuring I’m a Dolphin for life,” not becoming the highest-paid wide receiver in the league.
“This is obviously the best situation for me and the family,” Hill said according to NFL Media. “I don’t think it can get any better. . . . Everything that comes with living in Miami is beautiful.”
Still, after Justin Jefferson, A.J. Brown, and Jaylen Waddle got new contracts this offseason, Hill is seeking more money on his contract. But he’s leaving all that to his agent.
“About the contract situation, I’m going to let my agent do his job,” Hill said. “That’s his job, man. His job is to get great at that. My job is obviously to come out here and help this team win. . . . We want to make sure it benefits both sides. I want to be able to help the team as much as I can. That’s as much as I can say about it.”
We’ll have to see how it all shakes out, but it is clear that Hill has decided he wants to remain with the Dolphins.
