Former Lions QB calls out Tyreek Hill following $90,000,000 WR's mic drop announcement

Tyreek Hill was the top wide receiver in the NFL last season in the minds of many fans and analysts. However, just 12 months later, few can argue that he's at the same level but the Dolphins wide receiver isn't going down without a fight, even if it means leaving Miami.

In a clip from "Get Up" on Monday, Hill shared his intentions with the team going forward.

"I'm out, bro," Hill said (0:19). So, it was great playing here but at the end of the day, I got to do what's best for my career and what's best because I'm too much of a competitor to be (losing)."

NFL analyst Dan Orlovsky then talked about Hill's past with the Kansas City Chiefs.

"Well, you can't leave the winner for money and then complain when you don't win," Orlovsky said (01:16). "I love Tyreek. Obviously, he's an unbelievable player, but you left Kansas City because you wanted more money.

"Kansas City tried to keep you and they offered you your money and you left because you wanted the money and go to with Miami. Rightfully so. But then you can't complain that you're not winning as much as you did in Kansas City."

With the Dolphins' season finished, Hill now must look to the future and decide what he ultimately wants in 2025.

Tyreek Hill's new extension backfires

Tyreek Hill decided to sign an extension on Aug. 3, per Spotrac. Had he known that he wanted out back then, one could argue that he never would have signed on the dotted line.

Instead, the wide receiver's $90 million commitment ties him to the Dolphins through the end of the 2026 season. However, an out is built into the contract to financially reward the Dolphins should they elect to move on after the 2025 campaign.

Hill is contractually obligated to play for the team in 2025. His only realistic option is to ask for a trade. There's always the potential to ask for a release but that could cost him a pretty penny. Will the Miami Dolphins oblige?
