Watch: Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill scores on 60-yard TD

By Clark Dalton | Last updated 12/3/23

Could Miami's Tyreek Hill become the first wide receiver to win MVP?

The 29-year-old is making his case with another dominant performance against the Washington Commanders. With 9:14 remaining in the second quarter, Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa threw a 60-yard TD to the seven-time Pro Bowler, giving Miami a 24-7 lead. Per CBS Sports, it was his 21st TD of 60 or more yards, tied for the third most in league history.

Hill is one of the most impactful players in the NFL. Since the Dolphins acquired him in 2022, they've won 17 games, tied for the seventh most in the league. Tagovailoa has reached another level, too. This season, he's posting career highs in completion percentage (69.8) and yards per game (288.8).

A non-QB hasn't won MVP since 2012 when former Vikings running back Adrian Peterson won the award. However, Hill belongs in the conversation, as he's the best playmaker on his team and leads the league in receiving TDs (10) through 11 games.
