Tyreek Hill injury update: Dolphins WR injured on TD celebration vs. Rams, per report
Miami Dolphins (3-6) receiver Tyreek Hill came into Monday night’s Week 10 road contest against the Los Angeles Rams (4-5) nursing a left wrist injury.
He came out of the game with a new injury. Hill sustained a back injury in the 23-15 victory and might miss Wednesday’s practice, he told Taylor Bisciotti of NFL Network.
The injury occurred in the third quarter after Hill came down with a one-yard touchdown reception, his second score of the season. Hill and fellow wideout Odell Beckham Jr. went in for a professional wrestling inspired celebration, with Hill landing hard on his back.
“It felt good until Odell slammed my back out,” Hill said. “That kind of hurt me, so I’ll probably miss Wednesday’s practice with that one.”

Tyreek Hill finds the end zone vs. Rams on MNF
Hill was excited and for good reason. The five-time All-Pro hadn’t found the end zone since Week 1, and the score gave Miami a 16-7 lead.
The Dolphins had listed Hill as questionable after he reaggravated his wrist injury earlier this week and did not participate in Friday or Saturday’s practice. Hill, 30, told Lisa Salters of ESPN he has a torn ligament in his wrist, but played through the pain in helping Miami snap its three-game losing streak. He said the injury first came up during training camp and got worse after being handcuffed to the ground by police just hours before the season opener.
Hill had a quiet night outside of the touchdown, hauling in three receptions for 16 yards.
“With our backs against the wall, we’re gonna continue to fight,” Hill said. “We got a great group of leaders on this team. … Don’t count us out. This is only step one.”
