Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said that Tyreek Hill did not ask for a trade when he met recently with the wide receiver, who expressed his frustration after Sunday's season finale and hinted he may want to play elsewhere next season.
Grier said he and coach Mike McDaniel had "productive conversations" with the receiver this week but said Hill did not walk back his comments from Sunday. Hill pulled himself out of Sunday's 32-20 loss to the New York Jets in the fourth quarter.
McDaniel said he met with Hill for an hour on Monday and made it clear that it is "not acceptable" to leave the game and "won't be tolerated in the future." He said that Hill was "accountable" in the meeting.
McDaniel said there's not anything necessarily to fix with Hill, but the meeting was important to clear the air.
Grier also had some strong comments about quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who missed six games this season due to injury -- four while on injured reserve due to a concussion and the final two games due to a hip injury.
"He needs to be available. He needs to know how to protect himself ... He understands that not being available after taking chances is not acceptable to us," he said.
