It appears Tyreek Hill’s time with the Dolphins is coming to an end, and FOX picked up the exact moment it happened on Sunday. Hill infamously walked off the field in the third quarter with Miami down 18-to-6, prompting this stunning exchange between him and Jaylen Waddle.
I found this nugget while rewatching the game. This wasn’t just quitting on his team, it was quitting on everyone who believed in him: the fans, the coaches, and even his family. The moment Waddle asked Reek if he was done, it became painfully clear, he gave up. That choice… pic.twitter.com/uLe4anxuLb

“Hey Cheetah, you done? You done?”
Waddle was chatting with offensive players during a Jets’ challenge, presumably about trying to get things together for a the final quarter. It was at this point he realized that Tyreek wasn’t with them, and tried to find out what was going on.
Hill cryptically tweeted on Sunday night, thanking the fans and people of Miami, in what many took to be a goodbye message. The Dolphins are claiming Hill didn’t demand a trade and are working through the issue internally, but it’s feeling like the beginning of the end for this short-lived era for the Dolphins.
As incredible as it is that this moment popped up on the broadcast, let’s also appreciate the music from Curb Your Enthusiasm playing while cutting to Aaron Rodgers.
