Dolphins' Wide Receiver Tyreek Hill Being Scrutinized as Potential Trade Prospect by Various Teams
Tyreek Hill, the All-Pro wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins, is currently sidelined due to an oblique injury, yet several NFL teams remain interested in acquiring him via trade. Despite the Dolphins' official stance of not wanting to trade Hill at the moment, they might be persuaded by big offers, such as multiple first-round picks [1][3][4].
According to ESPN insider Jeremy Fowler, a few teams are monitoring Hill's future as a potential trade target. The Miami Dolphins' General Manager Chris Grier had previously stated he had no intention of trading Hill but would consider offers involving two first-round picks or more [1][3]. The interest persists because Hill is a major offensive weapon and a big option for Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, and his availability is uncertain, which fuels speculation [1][4].
Among the teams rumored to be in the mix interested in Hill are the Washington Commanders, Los Angeles Chargers, Las Vegas Raiders, and Arizona Cardinals, with Arizona potentially the only team willing to take on Hill's significant salary for 2025 in hypothetical trade scenarios [2][5].
Throughout his career, Hill has played in a total of 156 games (137 starts), with his tenure spanning both the Kansas City Chiefs and the Miami Dolphins. In his time with the Dolphins, Hill has been a reliable player, catching 319 passes for 4,468 yards and 26 scores in 50 regular-season starts from 2022-24. Hill has missed only one game in his first three seasons with Miami [1][2].
In the past, after a season-ending loss, Hill told reporters, "I'm out." However, since his injury, Hill has stated that he is focused and training hard for the team [6].
Hill's career statistics with the Miami Dolphins are 115 receptions for 1,732 yards and 19 touchdowns in 48 games (26 starts). In addition, he has accumulated 96 receptions for 1,212 yards and six touchdowns in 15 playoff games (14 starts) [1].
Before joining the Dolphins, Hill played for the Kansas City Chiefs, where he amassed 683 receptions for 9,366 yards and 63 touchdowns (108 games, 101 starts) [1]. Hill won the Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2019 season, and the team selected him in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft [7].
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has mentioned that he and Hill are "still continuing to rebuild" their relationship [8]. As the NFL preseason progresses, the Dolphins and other teams are being watched to see how they handle Hill going forward.
