Dolphins' Tyreek Hill Suffers Severe Left Knee Injury, Team Awaits Imaging After MNF Win

Miami fears a dislocated knee with potential ligament damage, with a diagnosis pending hospital imaging.

Overview

  • Hill was injured on a 10-yard third-down catch near the Jets’ sideline when his left leg twisted under him, and medical staff applied an air cast before he was carted off.
  • The Dolphins ruled him out with a left knee injury and said he was taken to a local hospital for imaging, evaluation and observation.
  • ESPN’s broadcast reported trainers cut off his cleat and tape to stabilize the leg, and Hill acknowledged the crowd as he left the field.
  • He had six receptions for 67 yards before exiting; with him out, Jaylen Waddle leads the receiver group as Darren Waller scored two touchdowns in Miami’s 27-21 victory to move to 1-3.
  • Multiple outlets reported the team fears a dislocated knee, and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport cautioned such injuries can involve multiple ligament tears, though no official diagnosis has been released.
