Miami Dolphins: Elite WR Tyreek Hill Takes Comedic Approach Amid Recent Struggles – Week 12

The Miami Dolphins have won three straight football games. Following a rocky return from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in Week 8, Miami has fought tooth and nail to position itself in the top spot among non-AFC playoff teams. On Sunday, the Dolphins won their third straight, dominating the New England Patriots 34-15. The final score does not do the Miami Dolphins justice, with the AFC East club leading 31-0 heading into the final frame. In the win, Tagovailoa went 29-of-49 for 314 yards and four touchdowns while spotting a spectacular 128.9 quarterback rating.

The NFL leader in passing yards last season, Tagovailoa found running back De’Von Achane for a pair of touchdowns, while wideout Jaylen Waddle and tight end Jonnu Smith were also on the receiving end of a passing score. Notably, especially to fantasy football owners, superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill failed to eclipse 70 yards for the third straight game and eighth time this season. Hill had fun regarding his recent “struggles,” taking a comedic approach via social media surrounding his lackluster numbers.

According to Miami Dolphins All-Pro wide receiver Tyreek Hill on Monday:

My exact thoughts

With nearly a million Twitter followers as of this writing, NFL fans have become accustomed to his comedic and usually sarcastic nature via social media. On Monday, Hill reposted a meme from a Miami Dolphins fan account that made light of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa leaning on his tight end and running back in Sunday’s win against the New England Patriots. Hill tweeted, “My exact thoughts,” along with a laughing emoji, as the wideout is amid his worst season since his rookie year. Following Sunday’s victory, Hill is averaging 51 receiving yards per game, less than half his mark from 2023.

Nevertheless, Hill would undoubtedly trade his downtick in production if that means a third straight playoff berth for the Dolphins. At 5-6, Miami is two games back of the Los Angeles Chargers in the win column regarding the final AFC Wild Card spot. Los Angeles will play the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football, while Miami will line up against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field next Saturday.
