I am currently using Dependency Injection and when I create a controller I always create a constructor and type hint Twig $view and LoggerInterface $logger which create use statements. Do I need to type hint still or am I using dependency injection incorrectly?

You should always TypeHint, this allows you to better test your class structure as you can use Mocks/Partials to test the outputs of your classes.

Should I not use dependency injection for Twig $view and LoggerInterface $logger then?

In my opinion you should use dependency injection and type hints.

Why typehint when using Dependency Injection

You are using dependency injection.
