“Don’t give up”: Tyreek Hill pleads with Dolphins fans to keep faith in Tua Tagovailoa, Mike McDaniel

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill made his weekly appearance on the video game streaming site Twitch. Hill plays some of his favorite video games, typically Fortnite, with fans and takes questions from fans throughout the session.

This week, he was asked by fans about his feelings at the end of the season. The Dolphins were eliminated from the playoffs after a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday evening in the Wild Card round.

Hill said that he believes in this Miami Dolphins team, especially in head coach Mike McDaniel and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa.

"I know that the season didn't end the way we wanted it to end man, but, a lot of people, especially in Fin Nation," Hill said. "There are a lot of great things to look forward to coming into the years man. Coach McDaniel coaches his a** off, still a young coach, still improving each and every day. It's only been two years and we made it."

"A lot of people are so quick to give up on what the Dolphins are trying to build right now. It's for the future man, don't give up man, don't give up on Tua, don't give up coach, don't give up on just everybody man in the whole entire building," Hill added.

Tyreek Hill praised his head coach for his hard work the last two seasons and how much potential he has moving forward.
