Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill has set his sights on breaking the long-standing NFL single-season receiving yards record and securing a Super Bowl championship for his team.
In an interview on his podcast, “It Needed To Be Said,” Hill expressed his ambitious goals of surpassing Calvin Johnson’s record of 1,964 yards set in 2012 and becoming the first receiver in NFL history to reach the 2,000-yard mark in a single season and a Dolphins Super Bowl.
Update: WR Tyreek Hill guarantees he will break the 2,000 receiving yard mark next season and a Super Bowl for the #Dolphins
"2,000 and another Super Bowl."

Hill’s determination is fueled by his exceptional debut season with the Dolphins. He shattered the franchise’s single-season receiving yards record previously held by Mark Clayton for 38 years, finishing with an impressive total of 1,710 yards.
Moreover, Hill’s 119 catches set a new Dolphins team record and solidified his status as one of the league’s top receivers.
The success of Hill’s pursuit of the record will depend heavily on the health and chemistry between him and Tagovailoa. In the 2022 season, Tagovailoa missed four games due to concussions, which coincided with a decrease in Hill’s productivity.
Renowned for his remarkable speed, Hill is widely regarded as the fastest receiver in the NFL. While his ability to stretch defenses with explosive deep plays is well-known, his 119 receptions in the previous season showcased his versatility and reliability as a complete receiver.
As the upcoming season approaches, fans and football enthusiasts eagerly await Hill’s electrifying performances on the field, as he strives to break records and bring the Dolphins a Super Bowl.
