It appeared that perhaps Tyreek Hill and the Miami Dolphins might have managed put their recent issues from Sunday aside after Hill and Mike McDaniel spoke this week.
But, after listening to Hill's agent, Drew Rosenhaus, speak, that might not necessarily be the case – or at least that hasn't been determined yet.
Rosenhaus joined Pat McAfee on his show on Thursday, and he was asked by one of the other co-hosts whether Hill wants to be a Miami Dolphin next year.
Rosenhaus was non-committal at this time.
"So, let me just say this – I've got to have that conversation with him," Rosenhaus responded. "I'm not going to speak for him. We'll discuss that. That's going to really be something we work over the – I'm not going to say he does, he doesn't. That's a discussion I'm going to have to have that I haven't had yet."
Hill drew a large amount of criticism on Sunday for pulling himself out of the game in the third quarter of Miami's 32-20 loss to the New York Jets, as well as for comments he made after the game that indicated he wanted out of Miami.
Mike McDaniel addressed the issue during his press conference with general manager Chris Grier on Tuesday. McDaniel noted that Hill "embraced accountability" for not going in when called and that they "had to clear the air in a rough and tumultuous situation."
Still, what that means as far as the volatile Hill's desire to stay is still unknown. Perhaps Rosenhaus is speaking the truth, and they haven't had the chance to talk yet. After all, we're just four days removed from the end of the season.
However, with Hill's history of wanting out of a terrific situation before in Kansas City (even if that was about money) who knows if the Dolphins can placate him enough to want to continue with an organization that's struggled to show it can truly compete with the upper echelon teams of this league and make it to the Super Bowl.
I imagine that conversation with Hill and Rosenhaus will happen soon, if it actually hasn't already.
