After a really bad day against the New York Jets, things got even worse for the Miami Dolphins in a hurry thanks to Tyreek Hill. The Dolphins (8-9) missed the postseason after losing 32-20 to the Jets (5-12) in the Week 18 season finale between the two teams.
The Miami Dolphins saw their 2024 season hit a new low after Week 18’s loss to the New York Jets on Sunday, but the day apparently got even worse with unforeseen drama over wide receiver Tyreek Hill’s status on the team.
With a 32-20 loss to the New York Jets, the Dolphins failed to make the NFL playoffs for the first time in head coach Mike McDaniels’ tenure. Their 8-9 year follows consecutive seasons of wildcard losses, this year’s injury-riddle season also cut short by the Denver Broncos’ 38-0 win over the Kansas City Chiefs.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins are running it back next season with Mike McDaniel as coach and Chris Grier as general manager. Shortly after the Dolphins' season ended with a 32-20 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday, owner Stephen Ross issued a statement posted on X by the team saying both McDaniel and Grier would return.
The Dolphins stumbled to 8-9 and will miss the playoffs. Did the Week 18 loss to the Jets seal Mike McDaniel and Chris Grier's fate?
Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is "unlikely" to play in Sunday's regular season finale against the Jets, coach Mike McDaniel said Friday.
After the injury suffered in Week 16 of the NFL, Miami Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel has made a decision regarding Tua Tagovailoa and the game against the New York Jets.
Tyreek Hill could be on his way out of Miami. The star wide receiver appeared to indicate after the Dolphins’ 32-20 loss to the New York Jets on Sunday that he might want to play elsewhere next season.
The Miami Dolphins plan to run things back for at least one more season. Despite a nightmare 2024 campaign for Miami, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross on Sunday backed both head coach Mike McDaniel and general manager Chris Grier.
The 2024 season was undeniably a year to forget for Tyreek Hill. Battling a wrist injury and dealing with Tua Tagovailoa’s early season absence, Hill had his worst statistical season since his rookie year. But still, you never want to see a star player quit on his team.
The Dolphins will miss the playoffs for the first time since Mike McDaniel became their head coach in 2022, but McDaniel expects to have a chance to get back to the postseason in 2025.
