The drama around Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill never seems to end.
Hill has started his own trade rumors through cryptic social media posts multiple times this offseason. While he continuously shoots down any trade speculation that follows, it’s a distraction for his team.
Even worse, Hill may soon be involved in off-the-field controversy. The Miami Herald reported on April 9 that Hill was served with divorce papers one day after police were called to his home for an alleged domestic violence dispute.
Could the Dolphins be growing tired of the controversy around Hill? Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton argued they could be.
On April 13, Moton included Hill on a list of big potential NFL trades that could still happen in 2025. Moton proposed the Dolphins send Hill to the Dallas Cowboys during the NFL Draft.
“The Dolphins signed wideout Nick Westbrook-Ikhine in free agency, and they could further address the position in the upcoming draft. They could quietly shop Hill if they intend to take a receiver within the first two rounds,” wrote Moton.
“If the Cowboys miss out on [Tetairoa] McMillan or pass on him, they could call the Dolphins to make a blockbuster move for Hill. Dallas would make Dak Prescott a happy quarterback if he returns from injury to see CeeDee Lamb and Hill as his top two receivers.”
Moton proposed the Dolphins send Hill and a 2025 fifth-round pick (No. 155 overall) to the Cowboys for a 2025 second-round pick (No. 44 overall) and a 2026 fourth-rounder.
Could Dolphins Ship WR Tyreek Hill to Cowboys
The Cowboys obviously already have receiver CeeDee Lamb, who signed a four-year, $136 million extension last preseason, on their roster. On an average annual basis, Lamb is the third-highest paid receiver in the NFL.
Therefore, taking on Hill’s contract as well might not be what the Cowboys prefer. Hill’s deal pays him an average of $30 million preseason.
But with a trade, the Dolphins could agree to keep some of Hill’s salary if they want to move on from the veteran badly enough.
That might be the situation with Hill involved in controversy at home.
“This isn’t the couple’s first dispute since they tied the knot in November 2023. In fact, two weeks after a fire engulfed a portion of Tyreek’s $7 million mansion at Landmark Ranch Estates near Davie, he filed for a divorce from Lakeeta in Broward court, stating their marriage was ‘irretrievably broken,'” wrote The Miami Herald’s Devoun Cutout and Grethel Aguila.
Unfortunately, the way the NFL works, if Hill was still a star, the Dolphins would likely help get through Hill’s latest controversy. But with Hill coming off one of his worst NFL campaigns, it’s worth wondering how much patience the Dolphins still have with the veteran wideout.
Hill posted 959 receiving yards with 81 catches in 2024. It was the first time since 2019 he failed to reach 1,000 receiving yards. During 2019, he played only 12 games. Hill dealt with multiple injuries during 2024 but played in every game.
The former All-Pro also registered just 11.8 yards per catch. In 2023, he had 15.1 yards per reception.
Now 31 years old, the receiver might not ever bounce back to be among the league leaders in receiving again. In conclusion, this offseason might be the best time for Miami to trade Hill.
