Tyreek Hill is widely considered one of the best wide receivers in the game right now. Any team he is on has an unfair advantage over the Cheetah’s speed. His career with the KC Chiefs gave him the right kind of start. He won a Super Bowl and proved to the league that he was worthy of better compensation as well as more respect. Reportedly, he left the Chiefs due to contractual and money problems and ended up playing for the Miami Dolphins. However, that might not have been his first choice.

In a recent video on Instagram, Hill revealed that his actual choice after he left the Chiefs wasn’t actually Miami. The WR actually intended to head to Cleveland and play for the Cleveland Browns. However, he revealed his reason for not going to Cleveland. Furthermore, the star Dolphins player spoke snarkily about the actual reason for him not landing in Cleveland.

Is Tyreek Hill still salty about not getting paid by the Browns?

In a recent Instagram video, he even revealed to a fan that the only reason he didn’t come was due to the issue of compensation. Apparently, the Browns were not ready to compensate the Cheetah with the right kind of salary. Due to this, he wasn’t able to come and play for the Browns. He is even seen in the video indicating this as he says, “They should’ve paid me.”
