"MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill may not need multiple surgeries after dislocating his left knee, coach Mike McDaniel said Tuesday. Hill suffered the gruesome injury during the team's 27-21 win Monday night over the New York Jets and was taken to a local hospital for further evaluation. McDaniel said Hill underwent a "major knee procedure" Tuesday to repair "multiple ligaments" and confirmed that Hill will miss at least the remainder of the 2025 season."
"McDaniel said he's heard "good things" about any potential nerve damage to Hill's knee, which is possible after a dislocation, and added that he's not heard that the receiver will need multiple surgeries. "It hasn't been deemed to be anything beyond this surgery and we're very hopeful for it to turn out well," he said Tuesday. "But no, it hasn't been explained (that multiple surgeries are) an absolute necessity. It's just executing this procedure and seeing what happens from there.""
"Jaylen Waddle caught eight passes for 142 yards and a touchdown in Miami's lone game without Hill since 2022 -- a 30-0 win over the Jets in 2023. Tight end Darren Waller may also see his role increase after catching two touchdown passes in his season debut Monday. Running back De'Von Achane also leads all NFL running backs in receiving yards and catches since the start of last seas"
Tyreek Hill dislocated his left knee during Miami's 27-21 win over the New York Jets and underwent a major knee procedure to repair multiple ligaments. The procedure will sideline Hill for at least the remainder of the 2025 season. Coach Mike McDaniel said he has heard good things about potential nerve damage and that multiple surgeries have not been deemed necessary at this time. Miami must find ways to replace Hill's production, since only Justin Jefferson has more receiving yards than Hill with the Dolphins. Jaylen Waddle and tight end Darren Waller are expected to take on larger roles.
