Tyreek Hill says he will retire from the NFL after his current contract with the Miami Dolphins expires and venture full-time in the world of gaming.
The 29-year-old who had played in the NFL for the last seven seasons says he will call it quits during a podcast in Kansas City.
“I’mgoing for 10, man. I’m going to finish out this contract with the Dolphins, man, and then I’m going to call it quits. I want to go into the business side. I want to do so many things in my life, bro.”
On what he will do outside playing in the NFL, Hill said, “I really want to get into like the gaming space. I really want to get huge in that and that’s kind of what I’m doing right now. I’m using my platform, creating a gaming team [Soul Runner Gaming], which isn’t launched yet. It should launch by the end of this month. I’m going to just sign like different content creators, different athletes. I’ve just been working that, talking to different sponsors.”
Tyreek Hill earned his fourth All-Pro honor last season while also having career highs in catches (119) and receiving yards (1,710). He says he would like to coach for a little while before moving into the world of gaming.
Hill is due $1.165 million in base salary this season and a $19.55 million base salary in 2024. He has four years left on his current contract, however, only two have guaranteed money.
