Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes have lost yet another weapon with Rashee Rice’s injury, which is why many expect the Kansas City Chiefs to search for a new wide receiver. Some are imagining a scenario where Tyreek Hill leaves the Miami Dolphins to return to his former NFL team, but it looks like we should hold our horses on this one.
Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, Cheetah suggested he has no intention of moving out of South Florida. Hill may have won Super Bowl LIV with Mahomes and Reid, but he looks happy with the decision of leaving Kansas City for Miami.
“You know what, man? I’m just focused on right here and right now,” Hill said. “We got a beautiful team here, and I want to be a part of it. You know, we got a great situation here. My family loves it. I enjoy it. The weather’s great. The fans are great. So we got a beautiful situation here, man.“
Hill shocked the NFL by leaving the Chiefs for the Dolphins in a blockbuster trade in March 2022. Mahomes and Reid went on to win more Super Bowl rings without him, while the wideout struggled to succeed with the Dolphins.
And while Cheetah made it clear he wants to stay in Miami, he also admitted that anything can happen in the NFL: “Obviously, you know, my parents always taught me, you know, control the controllable, and I only can control so much. So, with that being said, we all know the NFL is a business. Whatever happens, happens. So, moving forward, I would love to be here. I love being here, I love the guys.”
Hill mocked NFL world about trade rumors
If Rice’s injury was enough for fans to imagine Hill reuniting with Mahomes and Reid, the player only fueled that speculation with a cryptic post on social media Wednesday morning.
“Woke up to trade news exciting,” Hill wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). Hours later, the 30-year-old posted a meme in response to a report from the Palm Beach Post‘s Joe Schad that read: “Tyreek Hill, asked about Kansas City, says he wants to be in Miami.“
“I love trolling you nut cases,” Hill wrote only a minute later. Clearly, the wideout knows there are many things being said about him, and he has plenty of fun joking about them. The Dolphins, however, are not having so much fun this season.
Hill, Dolphins off to a poor start to 2024 NFL season
At 1-3 after four weeks and coming off an embarrassing loss on national TV against the Tennessee Titans on ‘Monday Night Football,’ the Dolphins have plenty of work to do if they want to save their season.
The offense was lackluster from Week 1, but Tua Tagovailoa’s injury in Week 2 only made things worse for Hill and company. In 2024, Cheetah ranks 34th in receptions (17), 28th in receiving yards (217), 32nd in touchdowns (1), and 72nd on yards per reception (12.8).
