Miami Dolphins fans are currently riding a rollercoaster of emotions regarding their star receiver, Tyreek Hill. After a devastating knee injury ended his 2025 season, the 31-year-old athlete\u2019s return to the NFL remains uncertain. But Hill has already found a new hobby to keep his fast-paced lifestyle moving: he is officially a DJ. However, not all hobbies turn into a profession.<\/p>\n
When asked if he was taking up music as his post-NFL career choice, the player said, \u201cNah, not for real. It\u2019s just something that I\u2019m doing in my pastime,\u201d he confirms to the PEOPLE. \u201cI feel like I\u2019m a guy who can do a lot, man. I love DJ\u2019ing. I love cars, so I also got my car dealership license. I\u2019m also trying to get back into school.\u201d<\/p>\n
This update gave fans a glimpse into how Hill was spending his time away from the gridiron, causing them to think maybe the new skill could be an add-on to his professional resume.<\/p>\n

Fast forward to February 2026, Hill gave a clear answer to his fans and the reporter. The player is showing significant progress in his physical recovery. While attending the EA Sports Madden Bowl just before the Super Bowl, he shared an encouraging update about his health following the gruesome injury he suffered against the New York Jets.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m feeling good. I mean, I\u2019m walking with no brace on right now,\u201d Hill toldPEOPLE. \u201cI\u2019m in my second week of walking with no brace, so I\u2019m proud of that. So I\u2019m feeling good.\u201d<\/p>\n
While his body is healing, there is no doubt that his focus has clearly shifted toward the music world. Hill confirmed that his interest in DJing wasn\u2019t just a passing thought, but something he has been actively practicing.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you want to know what\u2019s crazy? I actually just came from DJ\u2019ing. So I actually learned how to DJ two months ago, and I actually DJ\u2019ed my second time in front of a lot of people here at this Adidas event today,\u201d he revealed.<\/p>\n

But among so many hobbies, how did this rumor even begin? The first hints of this career shift<\/a> came in November through talk show host Andy Slater.<\/p>\n Reporting on a conversation Hill had at a local restaurant, Slater posted on X: \u201cSLATER SCOOP: Tyreek Hill is now a DJ. The @cheetah mentioned this in a conversation with @unclelukereal1 at @joesstonecrab earlier this week. It\u2019s unclear if Tyreek is taking bookings for Bar Mitzvahs and other events while recovering from his knee surgery.\u201d<\/p>\n Whether he returns to catch passes or spends his days dropping beats, Tyreek Hill seems really optimistic and ready for whatever the next chapter holds.<\/p>\n Addressing rumors related to Hill\u2019s exit from the Miami Dolphins<\/p>\n
