Whispers are swirling in South Beach about Tyreek Hill's future with the Dolphins. Despite being locked up through 2026, Hill's recent chatter has folks wondering if he might bolt after 2024.
Hill's latest season raised some eyebrows. The speedster snagged 81 balls for 959 yards and 6 scores. Not bad, but a far cry from his usual fireworks. It's the first time since 2019 he's failed to crack 1,000 yards, leaving some to ponder if the 30-year-old's wheels are finally slowing down.
But let's not write off the Cheetah just yet. Tua's injury-plagued year (only 11 games) surely played a part in Hill's dip. And remember, this is the same guy who torched defenses for 1,799 yards and 13 TDs in 2023.
But let's pump the brakes on writing off Hill just yet. Tua Tagovailoa's injury-plagued season (limited to 11 games) surely played a role in Hill's dip in production. And let's not forget, this is the same guy who torched defenses for 1,799 yards and 13 TDs in 2023.
So, where might Hill land if he does bolt from South Beach? A few intriguing options come to mind:
Los Angeles Chargers: Imagine pairing Justin Herbert's cannon arm with Hill's afterburners. The Bolts have a need at wideout, and Hill would give them a true game-breaker to complement Ladd McConkey.
Baltimore Ravens: Lamar Jackson to Tyreek Hill? That's the stuff of defensive coordinators' nightmares. The Ravens have been searching for that elite WR1, and Hill could be the missing piece for a deep playoff run.
Pittsburgh Steelers: Mike Tomlin's squad has been sniffing around every top receiver on the market. Pairing Hill with George Pickens could give Pittsburgh the explosive offense they've been craving.
Washington Commanders: After a surprising 2024, the Commanders might be a QB away from contention. Adding Hill to their offense could make them an attractive destination for a veteran signal-caller.
Kansas City Chiefs (Reunion Tour?): It's a long shot, but could Hill find his way back to Arrowhead? The Chiefs' offense hasn't been the same without him, and a reunion with Patrick Mahomes would be must-see TV.
Of course, any team looking to land Hill will need to pony up some serious cash. His current deal pays him $90 million over three years, with $65 million guaranteed. That's a hefty price tag for a receiver entering his 30s, even one as dynamic as Hill.
The Dolphins will have some tough decisions to make. Hill's 2025 cap hit is a whopping $27,698,750 - nearly 10% of the team's total cap space. Moving on could free up resources to address other needs, but it would also mean losing one of the league's most electric playmakers.
For now, this is all speculation. Hill's still a Dolphin, and there's a chance this is just offseason noise. But in the NFL, where the only constant is change, it's worth keeping an eye on the Cheetah's next move.
One thing's for certain: wherever Tyreek Hill lines up in 2025, he'll have defenses holding their breath every time he breaks the huddle.
