Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill carted off with scary knee injury vs. Jets
Published in Football
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill was carted off the field after a scary left knee injury suffered in Monday night’s game against the New York Jets.
Hill appeared to have the leg twisted into a compromised position early in the second half as he was tackled along the Jets sideline after making a catch.
Players from both teams took a knee as Hill received medical attention. A cart came out to take Hill into the locker room, as his left leg was immobilized.
Hill was in good spirits, smiling and clapping and signaling to fans and teammates as he was carted away.
The Dolphins immediately ruled out Hill and said Hill was being taken to a local hospital for imaging, evaluation and observation. The ESPN broadcast showed Hill in a wheelchair before being taken to the hospital. An ESPN report said the initial fear is a dislocation of the knee.
Hill was injured making a 10-yard catch to the sideline on third-and-8. He was tackled by the legs by Jets safety Malachi Moore as he was injured.
Three plays later, the Dolphins scored a 9-yard touchdown, with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa throwing to tight end Darren Waller for his second score of his Miami debut.
Hill had six catches for 67 yards Monday.
