Tyreek Hill says the work to come back from his left leg injury is still very much a grind, and he’s not pretending otherwise.
In a video posted to his YouTube channel, the veteran receiver showed himself training while talking through where things stand nearly 10 months after two surgeries. Hill said the injured leg still isn’t giving him what he needs.
“So it’s about 10 months after doing two surgeries,” Hill said. “My left leg is the one that I injured.
I have no power in my left leg, so I’m trying to regain all the power back in my left leg. But it’s one day at a time.”
Hill also said he was told after the injury that he “might not be able to walk again,” though he added that he feels good this far removed from the surgeries. The video included a range of exercises, along with some short running that Hill said he wasn’t supposed to be doing yet.
The update comes after it was reported in May that Hill might not play in 2026 because of the recovery from the dislocated knee and multiple ligament tears he suffered in Week 4 last year. ESPN’s Nate Taylor said the Chiefs are expected to monitor Hill’s recovery, and they are the only team explicitly tied to him at this point.
Hill, 32, entered the league as a fifth-round pick of the Chiefs in 2016. Kansas City signed him to a three-year, $54 million extension in 2019 that included $35.2 million guaranteed.
The Chiefs later traded Hill to the Dolphins during the 2022 offseason. Miami then gave him a four-year, $120 million contract with $72.2 million in guaranteed money.
Heading into the 2024 season, Hill agreed to a reworked three-year, $90 million contract with $65 million in guarantees after he was due base salaries of $19.665 million and $21.835 million over the next two seasons. The Dolphins released him in February 2026 while he was recovering from the significant leg injury.
In 2025, Hill played in four games for Miami and finished with 21 catches on 29 targets for 265 yards and one touchdown.

Why Eli Drinkwitz Staying Changed Everything For Mizzou This Offseason
With Missouri about 40 days from its 2026 season opener against Arkansas-Pine Bluff, the biggest offseason development has already happened off the field. Eli Drinkwitzs new six-year extension through 2031 gave the program the kind of stability that matters in a sport now defined by constant roster churn, and it quickly became more than a contract story. Around Columbia, his commitment to stay helped set the tone for an offseason built around keeping the roster together and making sure the Tigers did not have to start over.
The impact showed up in the retention work, with Missouri able to bring back as many as 37 players from last years team for 2026. At SEC Media Days, player representatives Jamal Roberts, Cayden Green and Nicholas Rodriguez all made clear that Drinkwitz remaining in place was a meaningful part of that equation. For a program trying to build on continuity rather than chase it, the coachs decision may end up being the most important move Missouri made all summer. [Read more 🡒]
Missouri Alum Euphenie Andre Is Now A National Champion
Euphenie Andres rise has been building for a while, and Missouri fans have had a front-row seat to it since her college days in Columbia. After a standout Tigers career that included records and All-American honors, she has kept climbing on the national and international stage, representing the United States at the 2026 Pan American Athletics Championship and adding to a medal collection that already includes strong NACAC results.
Now she has a national title to go with that resume. Andre won the womens triple jump at the 2026 USA Track & Field Outdoor Championship with a personal best of 13.94 meters, continuing the kind of upward trajectory that made her one of the more reliable names in the event. For Missouri, it is another reminder that one of its former stars is not just staying relevant after college, but pushing into the top tier of American track and field. [Read more 🡒]
