Tyreek Hill - Surgery 'brought up' for wrist but I'm playing - ESPN

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill said Thursday he may undergo surgery on a wrist injury that limited him at practice last week, but any procedure wouldn't be until after the 2024 season ends.

Hill said he first injured his wrist in August, during a joint practice with the Washington Commanders. The injury worsened over the first nine weeks of the season, to a point where Hill was held out of the Dolphins' final two practices of Week 10 and carried a questionable tag into Miami's game against the Los Angeles Rams.

The league's leading receiver from a season ago said he declined surgery and will play through the pain.

«At the end of the day, I just got to suck it up and just deal with the pain,» Hill said. «It's going to get worse the more I play, but I got to [gut] it out for my team. I'm here, I'm locked in no matter what, no matter how I feel. So even if I've got to cut my wrist off, I'm still out there because I love the game of football.

»Surgery was brought up and it was talked about whenever I talked to a few of the doctors, but it's my call at the end of the day, and my call is to stay out on the field."

Hill didn't commit to surgery after the season but said he'd be «in a good space to make that decision» when the time comes. He did not practice Wednesday but was upgraded to a limited participant Thursday and expects to play Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders.

ESPN's Lisa Salters reported Monday night that Hill told her that he aggravated his wrist injury during his detainment by police before the Dolphins' Week 1 game when he was taken to the ground. However, when asked to confirm that Thursday, he said the injury happened in the joint practice with the Commanders on a red zone play.
