When Miami Dolphins’ speedster Tyreek Hill went under the knife for wrist surgery, Fins fans everywhere held their breath. I mean, when you’ve got a guy they call “The Cheetah” who’s been lighting up the field like a Christmas tree, news of surgery hits different. You feel me? For those who’ve been living under a rock. Hill’s been in a tough spot since his wrist operation. Doctors are putting the brakes on his pass-catching game until late summer when training camp kicks off. But hold onto your seats, Dolphins nation, because this story just got a whole new chapter. And it’s looking like our boy’s cooking up something special in that recovery kitchen.

This Saturday, he dropped some vacation vibes and said, “I’m on injury healing, if you ask me, I never skied, never making snowball in my life. But you see this, if you see something like that it makes you want to join the fun. You know but I’m on baby duty. I’m a father dude right now, so…” For sure, Hill is living it up on his vacation in Aspen with his wifey and, most importantly, his little girl. He dropped some more updates, saying, “Day 1 of not being able to Ski in Aspen,” and in the next post, he shared a cute pic with his wife.

In another video, we see him admiring the ski slopes from far while chilling with his little baby girl. “Everybody’s gone skiing. Me and baby girl are just right here chilling. She’s asleep. And I am having a good time just watching. What a time to be alive, baby.” Tyreek can’t hit the slopes ’cause of that injury, and on top of that, he’s got some serious dad duties to handle now. Just when you thought a vacation was all about relaxation, it turns out it’s also about healing—so what’s the latest on Hill’s recovery journey?

Hill, 30͏, was sp͏otted with a͏ heavi͏ly ͏wrapped͏ l͏eft w͏ris͏t in some videos ͏he po͏sted on soci͏al media las͏t week.͏ He firs͏t hurt hi͏s wrist͏ back i͏n͏ Augu͏st during tra͏ining͏ c͏amp but played ͏throu͏gh t͏he pain all sea͏son long. “I just got ͏to suck it up and de͏al with the pain.
