Tyreek Hill is headed for a long rehabilitation as he works to overcome a serious knee injury. The first step is the surgery he is having on Tuesday morning, just hours after the injury took place during Monday night's game.

Hill's longtime agent, Drew Rosenhaus was at the hospital with the wide receiver and his parents ahead of his surgery. Rosenhaus shared a photo of the four and shared his well wishes and confidence in Hill's recovery.

"You got this ⁦@cheetah"-Drew Rosenhaus wrote on X.

The 31-year-old is currently under contract through the 2026 NFL season. His base salary for next season is $29 million with $11 million being fully guaranteed in March 2026. The Miami Dolphins will take a salary cap hit of $51 million for Hill's contract next season. The Dolphins were reportedly contemplating a trade or possible release next offseason however, with his current knee injury those plans are likely not on the table any longer.
