The injury occurred during Miami’s Sept. 29 victory over the New York Jets, when Hill’s left knee twisted awkwardly on a sideline play. He later underwent surgery to repair extensive ligament damage, including a torn ACL, effectively ending his campaign months early.

Miami radio host Andy Slater first shared word of Hill’s latest venture, saying the receiver mentioned his DJ debut to musician Luther Campbell during a conversation at Joe’s Stone Crab restaurant earlier in the week.

“Coming to play house music near you," Hill later retweeted Slater on Thursday.

Tyreek Hill discussed his uncertain future on former teammate Terron Armstead’s podcast in late October. He said he plans to make a decision only after reflecting with his family and gauging how his recovery progresses.

"At the end of the day, I feel like that decision is based upon how I feel and where my mindset is at the moment," Hill said.
"I'm happy with the career that I've had. I love playing football. I love it, but it takes a lot. It takes a lot on you mentally, it takes a lot on you physically. I'm at the point now where I need to have a conversation with mom, family, everybody."

Hill said that his focus for now is on rehab and being present with loved ones. The Dolphins placed Hill on injured reserve on Oct. 1 after he posted 21 receptions for 265 yards and one touchdown through four games. It’s a drop from his explosive 2023 season, when he led the NFL with 1,799 receiving yards.

Coach Mike McDaniel said Tyreek Hill’s focus has been unwavering in rehab and praised his decision not to rush any life choices.
