Tyreek Hill appears well on his way to earning a bust in the Pro Football Hall of Fame once his playing career is over, but for now the Miami Dolphins wide receiver at least has an artifact in Canton commemorating his historic 2023 season.

The Pro Football Hall of Fame has announced the addition to two artifacts to its collection, and one of them is a white game-worn jersey from Hill.

Hill was recognized for making NFL history in 2023 by becoming the first player with consecutive season with at least 1,700 receiving yards. Hill accomplished the feat this season by topping his own franchise record with 1,799 yards.

Hill's second season with the Dolphins also saw him match the franchise record of 119 receptions he set after arriving in that March 2022 trade with the Kansas City Chiefs.

The other artifacts — headsets and a game ball — honor Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin for passing Bill Parcells on the all-time career coaching victories list with 173.

After recording 1,710 receiving yards in 2022, Tyreek Hill became the 13th player to surpass the 1,700-yard mark. Hill followed with 1,799 receiving yards in 2023, becoming the first NFL player to record at least 1,700 receiving yards in multiple seasons.

Since entering the NFL in 2016, Hill is the second player with at least 700 receptions, 10,000 receiving yards and 75 touchdown receptions in his first eight seasons, joining Hall of Famer Marvin Harrison.

Hill is a finalist for the AP Offensive Player of the Year, which will be announced Feb. 8 on the NFL Honors show.
