Tyreek Hill publicly shares his ranked list of quarterbacks, with Tua Tagovailoa's position revealing Hill's perceived opinions towards him as a Dolphins player.
Rewritten Article:
Sporting a mixed bag of performances last season, it seems Tyreek Hill - Miami Dolphins' flashy wideout - has his doubts about his quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa. In a surprising twist, Hill didn't include Tagovailoa in his top five NFL quarterbacks, listing Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow, and Baker Mayfield instead.
Caught on camera during a Q&A on May 5, 2025, Hill vocalized his thoughts about the league's elite signal-callers, omitting his current teammate. His surprising move comes after he praised Tagovailoa's arm talent, even claiming his accuracy surpassed Mahomes' at one point.
Previous accolades showered upon Tagovailoa were also missing from Hill's new list. Dak Prescott, who initially made the cut, no longer found a place in Hill's book.
A Dissonant Melody in Miami's QB Duet?
Hill's ratings fuel speculation about a tension between him and Tagovailoa. This isn't the first time a star player failed to show love to their team's QB – Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs, both Cowboys defenders, skipped over Dak Prescott in their top signal-callers list. Could Hill be nursing a grudge over his sub-par season with the Dolphins, where he fell just short of 1,000 receiving yards?
The Dolphins traded Hill from the Chiefs in 2024, rewarding them with a stellar first season – 119 catches for 1,710 yards and seven touchdowns. However, his numbers dipped in the following season, finishing with 81 catches for 959 yards and six touchdowns – his lowest touchdown tally since his rookie year.

Despite playing all 17 games in 2024, Hill grappled with injuries and inconsistencies throughout the season. Meanwhile, Tagovailoa battles his own health challenges, wrapping up the tumultuous campaign with eleven games, six wins, and a 72.9% completion rate, tossing 19 touchdowns and seven interceptions.
Despite his struggles in 2024, Tagovailoa had a breakout year in 2023, throwing for a career-high 4,624 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions with Miami. The team ended up finishing 11-6 and reaching the playoffs, although they were eliminated by...you guessed it, the Chiefs in the Wild Card Round.
As we move forward, it is uncertain if Hill will reconsider his ratings for Tagovailoa. For now, it appears he does not view his quarterback as an elite force in the NFL. It begs the question: What lies ahead for the Dolphins offense, as they navigate the stormy seas of conflicting opinions and evolving relationships within their ranks?
