Tyreek Hill didn’t hold back after the Miami Dolphins’ 20-32 loss to the New York Jets, which marked the end of the regular season for the franchise. Following the game, the Dolphins’ wide receiver sent a strong message about his future heading into the 2024 NFL season.
According to Tyreek Hill’s statements, he doesn’t want to continue playing for the Miami Dolphins and is definitely looking to move on from the franchise, saying, “I’m opening the door. I’m out, bro. It was great playing here, but at the end of the day, I gotta do what’s best for my career.” Hill joined the team in 2022 and put up impressive numbers, earning multiple award nominations.
One key phrase from Hill’s statement was, “I’m too much of a competitor to be just out there.” This could be an indirect message about the difficult NFL season the Dolphins have faced, plagued by injuries and strategic issues.
The 2024 season marked Tyreek Hill’s first year in Miami with fewer than 1,000 receiving yards, totaling 959. This ended his streak of four consecutive seasons with over 1,000 receiving yards, which included his first two years with the Dolphins and his last two with the Chiefs.

Where could Tyreek Hill play in the 2025 season?
Nothing is set in stone yet, but several teams are in need of productive wide receivers like Hill, who finished the 2023 season with 1,799 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns, a career high. Teams like the Bengals could be interested in Hill, especially if Joe Burrow loses one of his main weapons due to contract.

Other teams that might pursue Hill include the Patriots, especially after reports surfaced that a former player and Super Bowl winner, who played with Tom Brady, could be named the next head coach with the goal of improving the franchise’s situation for 2025. Additionally, the Rams, who are known for adding veteran players to their roster—such as Odell Beckham Jr., who won a Super Bowl with them—could also be a landing spot for Hill.
