The Miami Dolphins made a quarterback change on Wednesday, and Tyreek Hill didn’t seem to be happy about it.
Quinn Ewers was named the starter amid Tua Tagovailoa’s struggles, including a 28-15 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday.
Part of the Dolphins’ struggles certainly have to do with Hill’s injury — the star wide receiver tore his ACL in Week 4 against the New York Jets.

However, despite being sidelined, he appears to have made his opinion known on the matter by posting an infamous meme.
Shortly after Tagovailoa’s firing was announced, Hill posted a GIF showing a man making a peace sign and disappearing.
Hill has seemed to have issues with the Dolphins in the past, who acquired him in a trade from the Kansas City Chiefs. After the final game of the 2024 season, Hill said he was “out.”

DOLPHINS BENCH FIGHTING WITH TUA TAGOVAILOA AFTER TOUGH PERFORMANCE AGAINST STEELERS: REPORTS
“It’s been great playing here, but at the end of the day I have to do what’s best for my career because I’m too much of a competitor to just be out there,” Hill said at the time.
Apparently the sides have worked it out, as Hill hasn’t been moved — but it’s pretty clear that Hill doesn’t want the seventh-round rookie throwing to him anytime soon.
Tagovailoa’s bench is stunning, as he is in the first season of a four-year, $212 million contract extension he signed in July 2024, with $167 million guaranteed.
But this season, the former Alabama quarterback leads the NFL in interceptions with 15. Tagovailoa has struggled through 14 games, as he has completed 67.7 percent of his passes for 2,660 yards with 20 touchdowns and 15 interceptions.

The Dolphins could have chosen Zach Wilson to take over in place of Ewers, but instead turned to the rookie. In limited action, Ewers completed five of eight passes for 53 yards.
