Dolphins: Tyreek Hill Gets Ridiculous NFL Fine for This Wardrobe Malfunction

Tyreek Hill of the Miami Dolphins was a polarizing figure in the Miami Dolphins' win over the Denver Broncos, 70-20, in Week 3 last September 24.

However, Hill's unreal showing took a bit of a blow after the league fined him for an oversight - not wearing socks, per The Athletic.

Note to self: wear socks

The NFL has specific policies regarding uniforms. This includes the part where stockings must be white from the top of the shoe to the midcalf and an approved team color from the midcalf to the bottom of the pant leg, which must be pulled below the knee.

Hill was noticeably not wearing any despite his efforts. He finished with nine catches for 157 yards and a touchdown. More impressively, he racked up those numbers without seeing much action in the fourth quarter.

"So in the Broncos game, the first touchdown, I didn't have any socks on at all," Hill said to the Palm Beach Post. "But I was getting an IV and I didn't want to be late for the play. So I didn't have time to put on my socks."

Although the $7,000 fine may not be much, the seven-time Pro Bowler plans to appeal it and request that it be reduced, the New York Post reported.

Hill vows payback against Bills

Unfortunately for Tyreek Hill and the Dolphins, they dropped their Week 4 game against the Buffalo Bills after that. The four-time First-team All-Pro vowed that they would get even when the two teams collide in a rematch in Week 18, Bleacher Report reported.

The Dolphins are preparing for the New York Giants, whom they will face in Week 5 on Sunday, October 8.

The Dolphins are expected to bounce back against the Giants, wherein they are 11-point favorites per Fox Sports.
