Tyreek Hill postpones ankle surgery, Amari Cooper ready to return, Christian Barmore returns to Patriots (Video)

Tyreek Hill said Thursday he may need surgery on his ankle, but he’s willing to wait until the offseason to address the issue.

“At the end of the day, I just have to suck it up and deal with the pain,” Hill said. “The more I play it will get worse, but I have to do it (toughly) for my team. I’m here, no matter what happens, no matter what I feel, I’m locked in. I have to slit my wrist, I’m still there because I love football.”

“Every time I talked to a few doctors, surgery came up and was talked about, but at the end of the day, it’s my decision and my call is to stay on the field.”

The Miami Dolphins wide receiver injured his ankle during a joint training camp practice with the Washington Commanders. The discomfort grew worse as the 2024 season progressed. Hill missed the team’s final two practices last week and was listed as questionable ahead of Monday night’s game against the Los Angeles Rams.

Hill is expected to play against the Las Vegas Raiders this week.

Buffalo Bills winger Amari Cooper missed the team’s last two games due to an ankle injury he suffered in Week 8. Cooper said he feels ready to return after being limited in practice this week.

“I definitely feel better. I’m definitely more comfortable,” Cooper said. “Then I’m ready to play football again.”

Cooper, who will continue to wear a cast on his wrist, said that he does not feel any pain while passing the ball and that he just needs to get used to wearing it while playing.

The Bills will be without Keon Coleman for the second straight week due to an ankle injury. Tight end Dalton Kincaid is likely to miss the Chiefs game due to a knee issue.

New England Patriots linebacker Christian Barmore returned to practice Thursday after missing training camp and the first nine weeks of the regular season. Barmore spent time on the non-football illness list. dealing with blood clots.

Coming off a season in which he appeared in all 17 games and had 65 tackles with 8.5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss, Barmore did not speak to reporters after practice but posted an Instagram story: “Where there’s no pain, there’s no gain.”

The 25-year-old is unlikely to play against the Los Angeles Rams this week, but his return to the field is a good sign.

“He’s outside. Defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington said: “That’s the first step and take it from there. Let’s take each day one day, one week, one game, and that’s really the story for you, that’s the story for us, the story for him. There shouldn’t be any pressure on him.” . Like, he’s out there. That’s it. I’m glad you’re out there. You’re out there. One snap, 50 snaps, whatever it is, it’s better than not being there, right?
