After knocking off the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium on Sunday, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is taking aim at the Patriots’ fan base.
When catching up with reporters in the locker room after the game, Hill called Patriots fans “some of the worst fans in the NFL”. Those comments come days after he vowed to dominate the Patriots no matter what defensive coverage coach Bill Belichick threw at him.

Those fans are some of the worst fans in the NFL, and I’m going to stand on that, man, because they are real nasty,” said Hill. “Some of the things that they were saying, I wouldn’t say in church. It felt great to wave goodbye to the fans, and I’ll do it again, ‘Bye’.”

Hill wasn’t able to dominate the Patriots defense, but he was effective on the field, hauling in five passes for 40 yards and one touchdown.
The Patriots defense made enough plays to give the offense a fighting chance, but it was another night of the unit failing to make enough plays to overcome a second straight loss in the season.
