There is a situation brewing between the Miami Dolphins and superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill. It’s a situation that will need to be figured out at some point in the near future.
Hill has no guaranteed money past the 2025 season. A lot of trade rumors have come out and Hill has posted many different cryptic things on social media.
More than likely, the situation will come down to a simple question. Do the Dolphins want to extend Hill or trade him?

Even at 31 years old, Hill is still one of the best wide receivers in the NFL. He’s coming off of a bit of a down year in 2024, but opposing defenses still fear him.

CBS Sports analyst Tyler Sullivan took a look at the situation between Hill and Miami. He broke down his thoughts on the matter in a recent column.
“Something will need to give between Hill and the Dolphins. He’s been the subject of trade speculation since the minute Miami’s season ended (largely thanks to his doing),” Sullivan wrote.
“However, no blockbuster that ships Hill out of South Beach has come across the wire. If Miami decides to keep its star receiver, it’ll likely need to come to some sort of an extension. Hill is signed through the 2026 season, but has no guaranteed money after this coming year. Even as he enters his age-31 season, Hill is still among the very best in the league at his position, so any sort of extension will be lucrative.”
During the 2024 NFL season, Hill racked up 81 receptions for 959 yards and six touchdowns in 17 games. Looking at his two previous seasons, the numbers were not close to the expectations.

In 2023, Hill caught 119 passes for 1,799 yards and 13 touchdowns. He totaled 119 receptions for 1,710 yards and seven touchdowns in 2022.
Despite not having as big of a season last year, there is a very good chance that Hill will bounce back in 2025. Letting him walk could be a major mistake at this point in his career for the Dolphins.
Only time will tell, but the two parties will need to figure something out. Until that decision is made, rumors will continue swirling around Hill and what his future may hold. It will be interesting to see what Miami chooses to do.
