The future of Tyreek Hill in a Miami Dolphins jersey is suddenly clouded with uncertainty. Despite General Manager Chris Grier’s public insistence that the All-Pro wide receiver remains a central piece of their plans, actions — and rumors — are painting a different picture as the 2025 NFL offseason unfolds.
Why keeping Tyreek Hill may not align with Dolphins’ shifting priorities
Tyreek Hill has proven to be one of the league’s most dangerous offensive weapons, even in a season where Miami struggled to find consistent footing. His elite speed and playmaking ability remain unquestioned. In a "down year," Hill still managed 1.79 yards per route, and that jumped to 1.85 when Tua Tagovailoa was the starter — a figure comparable to top-tier receivers like Courtland Sutton.
Yet, despite Hill’s production, questions loom about Miami’s direction. Pro Football Network recently predicted the Dolphins could cut ties with the star via trade, noting: "GM Chris Grier can say what he wants publicly, but the Dolphins’ actions say another thing... Miami has several bloated contracts nearing their completion, led by Tyreek Hill.”
Salary cap pressure and a roster in flux
It’s not just Tyreek Hill’s high-level performance that’s in the spotlight — it’s the dollars attached to it. Miami’s cap situation is tight, and the departure of other big names, like Jalen Ramsey, signals a possible retooling phase. Shedding Hill’s contract, though painful in terms of losing talent, could provide much-needed financial flexibility.
Trading Hill before the draft could also allow the Dolphins to secure a young wide receiver on a rookie deal while gaining a premium draft pick — a strategic move that might help rebuild the roster without sacrificing long-term competitiveness.
Hill’s potential departure would undoubtedly send shockwaves through the organization and the fanbase. But if the front office truly believes a reset is needed to correct years of questionable decision-making, dealing Hill may become a necessary evil.
