Tyreek Hill started a fire on Sunday after he said he was done with the Dolphins.
He then poured gas on said fire with his latest social media stunt on Monday.
Hill changed his profile to that of the infamous half-naked Antonio Brown, but with Hill’s head in place of Brown’s. For those unfamiliar with what I’m talking about or don’t remember – the picture is from when Brown stripped out of the majority of his pants during a Bucs-Jets game and ran off the field and into the locker room. Naturally, he never played another down for Tampa Bay, again.
It’s a pretty classless move by Hill. The Dolphins paid him a ridiculous amount of money, which is exactly what he wanted, and now he’s trying to troll his way out of town. It comes off as self-entitled and selfish and this move only makes it worse.
Additionally, what team would want to trade for Hill or even sign him if the Dolphins somehow release him (which they probably won’t based off his contract structure)? Hill’s primary frustration comes from the team’s lack of wins without Tua Tagovailoa. What if his next team’s quarterback gets injured a lot and the team can’t win without him? Is he going to pull the same crap after another big contract?
I never want to play hall monitor, but Hill may want to consider his next moves very carefully. Or else all the fun and games could end up having serious ramifications.
