Tyreek Hill plans to return next NFL season despite surgery for a dislocated knee and torn ligaments, ending his current season but avoiding further surgery, his agent said.

- Hill's camp says the goal is for him to play next year, Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN, and Hill confirmed on TikTok he plans to return while reports say he will not need another surgery.
