Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill may love having the rock in his hand as often as possible, but he looks more than happy to share it with his newest teammate.
On Friday, the Dolphins acquired wide receiver Chase Claypool in a trade with the Chicago Bears. It didn’t take long for Hill to respond to the news.
Taking to X, Hill had just five words: “Chase Claypool I like it,” he wrote, adding a smiling emoji.
Dolphins fans like it just as much as Hill does and maybe more based on some of the replies:
Chase Claypool I like it 🥹

“Reek likes it so do I. We got leaders in the locker room to whip em into shape,” one Dolphins fan declared.
“Tyreek is a fan of the trade. Let’s see if this WR room can soothe Claypool’s soul,” another wrote.
“I like it also, I’m excited to see how he flourishes in that offense,” wrote a third.
As a rookie in 2020 Chase Claypool looked like one of the NFL’s most promising young receivers. He had 62 receptions for 873 yards and nine touchdowns with the Steelers that year.Â
But after putting up nearly identical numbers the following year, Claypool fell out of favor with the Steelers in 2022 and was traded to the Bears in November. His tenure in Chicago lasted a grand total of 11 months and saw him play just 10 games.
