Firefighters were called Wednesday to extinguish a blaze at Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill’s Southwest Ranches home in Florida, according to reports.

Smoke could be seen over the roof of the home, which was purchased for $6.9 million in 2022 according to property records cited by WSVN 7 News, and was upgraded to a two-alarm fire.

Hill, who is preparing for the Dolphins’ regular-season finale Sunday against the Bills, left practice and “has been in communication with his family,” the organization said in a statement.

“Tyreek has been in communication with his family. Everyone is out of the house and safe at this time. He has also left practice to deal with the situation,” the Dolphins’ statement read, according to WSVN 7 News.

WSVN 7 News reported crews were looking for other possible hotspots around the property.

No injuries have been reported, according to WSVN 7 News.

Hill’s agent Drew Rosenhaus told reporters that some family members were home at the time of the fire.

“He and his family are safe,” Rosenhaus said. “No one was injured No. 1, no pets, so for that, we’re very grateful. We’re very grateful to the firefighters that put the fire out. Thankfully, the fire was contained to a limited area in the home. Obviously, there’ll be some smoke and water damage. It’s very difficult for anybody obviously to have your home catch on fire, but Tyreek was handling it, he and his family, with as much poise as you could hope.”

Rosenhaus said Hill will not comment at this time, that the cause remains under investigation and that it was largely contained to one room.

Footage showed Hill arriving at his home just before 3 p.m. Eastern with his left foot in a walking boot.

He could be seen embracing his wife, Keeta Vaccaro, whom he married last month.

Hill was also roaming around outside near the home, sometimes with his hand on his chest and on his face, speaking to authorities.

According to an Associated Press report, firefighters appeared to be working on the highest parts of the structure.

Many of the bedrooms, a home theatre and a den were among the rooms upstairs, according to the property listing.

The house also featured a putting green, an NBA-sized basketball court, a heated salt-water filtration pool and a spa built for 10 people. Also on the property: two guest houses, along with lemon, mango and banana trees.

Hill, a seven-time Pro Bowler, is in his second season with the Dolphins.

The 29-year-old wideout began his career with the Chiefs in 2016 and was part of Kansas City’s Super Bowl-winning roster in February 2020.

He was traded to the Dolphins in March 2022 and subsequently signed a four-year, $120 million contract extension. 

Through 15 games this season, Hill has 112 receptions for 12 touchdowns and 1,717 yards, which is on pace to be a career-high.

Hill married his fiancée, Keeta Vaccaro, during the Dolphins’ bye week in November.

The Dolphins (11-5) will host the Bills (10-6) on Sunday at 8:20 p.m.
