Hill spoke to local media from the team's practice facility Wednesday, after a limited participation in the Dolphins' OTA practice; he underwent surgery on his right wrist shortly after the 2024 season ended and isn't expected to resume catching passes until training camp this summer.

It was Hill's first time speaking with local media since suggesting a trade request after Miami's season-ending loss to the New York Jets in January. During that loss to the Jets, Hill also made himself unavailable to play in the second half — which coach Mike McDaniel said he did not condone.

After the game, Hill expressed his frustration over missing the playoffs for the first time in his career and hinted at the possibility of playing elsewhere next season. He ultimately walked his comments back and publicly apologized for them.

«It was tough, man,» Hill said. «Obviously emotions were high then, but at the end of the day, I'm just looking to move forward from that, hoping that I can prove myself and prove to my teammates that I'm still one of them ones, man, who's chasing 2K [receiving yards], still one of those ones chasing playoff dreams and all of that great stuff.»

Hill has made headlines for multiple off-the-field incidents during his time with the Dolphins, and that continued in April, when police were called to his condominium for a domestic dispute with his wife, who filed for divorce in the following days.

He said he has attended church and therapy over the past month, which he says has helped him reflect on his
