Tyreek Hill has been through the wringer since his departure from the Kansas City Chiefs. With no success in the postseason, the scene in Miami is in stark contrast to what he was accustomed to while he had Patrick Mahomes as his quarterback.
The star wideout is a competitor at heart. His outburst after the final regular season game that he wanted out of Miami turned heads and fans began to criticize him. Since then, he has been attempting to reverse the damage done by his comments and now, Tyreek Hill has apologized to Tua Tagovailoa .
The apology comes weeks after his initial comments. After his initial outburst, his agent Drew Rosenhaus came out and extinguished the flames he lit by reaffirming Hill’s commitment to staying in Miami. Hill issued an apology to the quarterback via the Up & Adams Show.
Tua, he’s my guy. Always will be my guy, no matter what man like, and I’m sure, like, he understands my frustration like we all want to win, Hill stated. Tua, he’s another competitor. He’s a hell of a competitor. A lot of people don’t know that. He’s a winner. He’s consistent. I’m looking forward to just us continuing to build our relationship and this is my public apology. This is my public apology to you Tua. I love you, bro.
Tyreek Hill said
The receiver has deep regret for the way things have transpired, but he wants to be optimistic about the future.
Tyreek Hill can be a star wide receiver in Miami but not a Super Bowl champion
It is admirable of him to publicly acknowledge his mistakes. However, the question is what happens if Miami falls short again in the near future? How does Tyreek Hill handle that?
The issue with being competitive is that it serves as a double-edged sword. It fosters a desire to be great and if you notice that you are doing your part but those around you are not then it drives you to chastize them over it.
Hill’s decision to leave the Chiefs was due to the money. He knew that there was a chance of achieving success with Tua Tagovailoa as his quarterback, but irrespective of the on-field record, he gets paid. Since his departure, the Chiefs have gone on to win two more Super Bowls with a chance of winning the third on Sunday.
Apart from apologizing, Hill will need to change his attitude. He refused to go into the game in the second half of the final regular season game, which demoralized the rest of the offense. Actions speak louder than words and moving forward, the wideout’s deeds will dictate if he is indeed sorry.
