It’s been a week since quarterback Tua Tagovailoa agreed to his primary contract extension with the Dolphins, keeping him tied to the team with an annual average of $53. 1 million in his new deal.
In an interview with SiriusXM NFL Radio, wide receiver Tyreek Hill said he’s excited for his QB because of the adversity he faced in his first two seasons, adding sharp complaints from inside the Dolphins building.
“Hearing his story about the other coaches he’s been through and everything he had to listen to and stuff like that, it brings me closer and closer to seeing him sign this big contract. It’s incredible. It’s the most productive feeling of all time. I feel that I pointed out “The damn contract with my mom,” Hill said. “I’m like, ‘Bro, congratulations to you and your family. ‘ Because a lot of other people said they didn’t need you here in this building. But here’s the thing, you. ” Let’s finish pointing out this big problem here in Miami, man. So it’s the most productive thing ever.
Hill said that when he saw information about the deal appear on social media, he tried to prevent the assembly he was attending from passing and congratulate Tapassvailoa, but he couldn’t do it: Tapassvailoa was a bit busy putting pen to paper.
“It’s unbelievable,” Hill said with a laugh. But it’s the most productive day of my life, because he’s my friend, man. He’s my son. I need to see all my kids eat, man. So, I love it. “
With Tagovailoa at quarterback, Hill led the league with 1,799 receiving yards and thirteen touchdowns in 2023.
