Hill responded to the tweet, writing, "Bad take I ran my route wrong Tua threw that ball exactly where I was suppose to be . He noticed my angle put enough air time on it just to give me time to adjust."
Tagovailoa finished Sunday going 18-for-24, throwing for 280 yards and two touchdowns. As for Hill, he had five receptions for 157 yards and two touchdowns.
It's no secret Tagovailoa has a favorite receiver and Hill is very happy playing with the quarterback.
