Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill played this entire season through a broken wrist, NFL agent Drew Rosenhaus said on Thursday.

"Let's back up to training camp. Tyreek's scrimmaging with the Washington Commanders, and he breaks his wrist," Rosenhaus said on "The Pat McAfee Show."

"We have top wrist doctors saying to Tyreek, 'You need to get this operated on, you're going to miss the season.' Tyreek says to me and the Dolphins, 'I'm not going to miss the season, I'm going to play. I want to be here for my team.'"

Hill, who will turn 31 in March, caught 81 passes for 959 yards in 17 games this season -- marking his lowest production in a full season since his rookie year with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016. The drop came following a pair of 1,700-yard seasons to begin his tenure in Miami and with Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa limited to 11 games due to concussion and hip injuries.

Before the 2024 season, Hill signed a three-year, $90 million extension through the 2026 season that included a $7 million signing bonus and $59 million in guaranteed money. The eight-time Pro Bowl selection is due to count $28.7 million against the 2025 cap and $51.9 million in the final year of the deal in 2026.
