Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill exited Monday night’s matchup against the New York Jets after sustaining a severe leg injury. The incident occurred following a 10-yard reception from quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, as Hill was tackled low by Jets defender Malachi Moore. Upon impact, Hill’s leg twisted unnaturally.

Medical personnel rushed to the field, quickly placing Hill’s left leg in an air cast before carting him off. Despite the apparent seriousness of the injury, Hill appeared to remain in good spirits. He was seen clapping his hands, smiling, and laughing in response to the crowd’s support as he was taken off the field. As he was wheeled away, he was heard shouting, “Yesss.”

NFL insider Adam Schefter reported that the Miami Dolphins fear Hill may have dislocated his knee, according to a source. Hill was transported from the stadium by ambulance and is reportedly en route to a local hospital for further evaluation.
