MIAMI, Fla. — A former Kansas City Chiefs standout, now with the Miami Dolphins, has suffered a horrifying injury that has sent shockwaves through the NFL. Tyreek Hill, the electrifying wide receiver, was carted off the field during Monday Night Football against the New York Jets on September 29, 2025, after sustaining a stomach-turning leg injury that left bone visibly protruding.
Hill, who began his career with the Chiefs before joining the Dolphins in 2022, was having a standout performance with six catches for 67 yards, poised to lead Miami out of their 0-3 start. The incident occurred in the third quarter when a Jets defender tackled him out of bounds after a catch, twisting his leg awkwardly beneath him. As he rolled onto his back, his leg appeared unnaturally detached at the knee, with a shocking photo circulating on Twitter/X showing what looks like a bone jutting out.
The gruesome moment, captured in slow-motion footage trending on social media, has drawn widespread attention. Fans and analysts alike expressed horror, with one X post noting, “This is hard to watch—prayers for Tyreek.” ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the Dolphins suspect a dislocated knee, and Hill was rushed to a hospital for scans. Early indications suggest his season is likely over, a devastating blow to the Dolphins’ hopes.

Hill’s injury marks a stark contrast to his Chiefs days, where he racked up 6,630 receiving yards and 56 touchdowns over six seasons (2016-2021), earning three Super Bowl rings. Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel said, “We’re heartbroken for Tyreek. He’s been our spark, and now we focus on his recovery.”
The NFL community has rallied around Hill, with former teammate Patrick Mahomes tweeting, “Stay strong, Tyreek—Chiefs Kingdom is with you.” As the Dolphins (0-3) regroup, the league mourns the loss of one of its dynamic players. Stay tuned to NFL.com for updates on his condition!
