Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill is in danger of missing significant time after suffering a gruesome leg injury on Monday Night Football, but his reaction to the serious setback earned some praise.
Hill’s leg appeared to fracture as he was tackled in the third quarter of his team’s game against the New York Jets. He was tended to be the team’s medical staff and carted off the field, but sent fans a message as he was headed to the locker room.
