“I won’t be able to play Fortnite”: Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill cracks a hilarious joke about his hand injury

The Miami Dolphins, led by quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receiver Tyreek Hill, are still leading the competitive AFC East division. After facing a tough blow against the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs due to a controversial fumble, the team buckled up and picked up a win against the Las Vegas Raiders in their recent match.

With a 7-3 mark, the Dolphins are showing no sign to stop on the midway. They currently own the record for the top-ranked passing offense in the NFL, and Hill largely paved the way for it. Meanwhile, the WR’s recent injury might be a headache for the franchise, albeit he himself is not bothered about it.

Tyreek Hill drops a funny joke about his hand injury

Tyreek Hill entered the recent match against the Raiders with 1,076 receiving yards along with eight touchdowns before sustaining a hand injury. After setting a new franchise record, the WR is on the verge of having a season full of new feats.

Though the injury can be a short-term blow for him, the receiver is not worried about it at all. Instead, he is more worried about not being able to play Fortnite due to his hand.

“The only thing I’m really bummed about I won’t be able to play Fortnite.”

The seven-time Pro Bowler has frequently discussed video games while talking to reporters. He streamed himself playing Fornite in the past and frequently plays it on his Twitch streams. The veteran owns an eSports organization called ‘Soul Runner Gaming’, and also signed renowned Fortnite streamer Scoped.

What happened to Tyreek Hill?

During the second quarter of the Dolphins Sunday match against the Raiders, Hill suffered a hand injury on a play when he was shut down by a host of Raiders defenders. He was spotted grimacing in pain before leaving the field with trainers.

The receiver entered the locker room and was initially questionable for resuming play. However, he was able to return to the field for the second half when his squad scored their second touchdown in the contest.

The All-Pro wide receiver finished the match with 146 yards on 10 receptions along with a 38-yard touchdown, marking his league-leading sixth TD catch with a minimum of 35 yards. Following the match, he said, “I think I’ll be fine,” per SI.com.

Tyreek Hill has been leading the NFL in receiving yards and now leads the league in receiving touchdowns as well. The way Cheetah is proceeding, he will surely have one of the best seasons this year.
