‘Hard Knocks’ Clip Reveals How Dolphins Choreographed Roller Coaster TD Celebration

There aren’t many NFL players who can excite football fans with elaborate touchdown celebrations like Tyreek Hill.

After Hill’s explosive 78-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter of the Dolphins’ 45–15 road victory against the Commanders, the Miami wide receiver didn’t disappoint as he orchestrated a rollercoaster celebration with some of his teammates. Following Hill’s score, the All-Pro wideout immediately sat down in the end zone and raised his right hand. 

Moments after Hill came wide receiver Braxton Berrios, running back Raheem Mostert and wideout Cedrick Wilson Jr. followed suit. From there, Dolphins offensive lineman Robert Hunt made sure the passengers (Hill and his teammates) were fastened securely by grabbing each player’s hands and placing them down as the safety bars for the ride. 

However, celebrations with multiple players and with this much detail likely require practice. As it turns out, Hill and his teammates practiced the celebration during one of the team’s Hard Knocks episodes.

As the Dolphins continue to win, don’t expect Hill to stop delivering the celebrations, even if he earns a fine or two along the way. The Dolphins are having fun this season.

Currently, Hill is on pace to become the NFL’s first wide receiver to eclipse 2,000 yards in a single season, and the Dolphins (9–3) are tied with the Ravens (9–3) for the best record in the AFC. Miami will seek to maintain its top spot in a matchup against the Titans (4-8) on Monday Night Football
