Tyreek Hill continues to walk back comments that he wants out of Miami.
Already having noted his “I’m out” remarks following the end of the Dolphins’ season were borne out of frustration, Hill told FanDuel TV’s Up & Adams on Friday that he wants to remain in Miami.
“I do. I do. I don’t want to go nowhere,” he told Kay Adams. “I love it. My family loves it. Kids absolutely love being on the beach every morning. So it’s an amazing thing, man.
“We are really building something special in Miami. We made it to the playoffs the first two years. Obviously, this year was hard, but if guys continue to buy into what coach (Mike McDaniel) is building and the culture that he’s trying to build, it’s going to be a beautiful thing, man.”
Hill took himself out of the Dolphins’ Week 18 loss to the New York Jets when it was clear Miami wouldn’t be making the playoffs. It was a move McDaniel said afterward was “unacceptable.”
The 30-year-old receiver isn’t worried about his actions being misinterpreted by his teammates, who already know he’s sorry for his comments.
“They know I’m not that type of player, though,” he said. “A lot of people may say, ‘Reek is a hothead. He’s this. He’s that.’ But all my teammates know.”
