NFL: Hill keen to stay in Miami despite poor start to season

The star receiver has been linked with a move away from Miami.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill reaffirmed his commitment to the team on Wednesday, despite a slow start to the season and growing speculation about a potential trade.

Hill had a quiet night during Monday’s loss to the Tennessee Titans, managing just four receptions for 23 yards and contributing only 87 receiving yards in the past three games.

Cameras captured Hill animatedly speaking with someone on the Dolphins’ sideline during the game, adding to the hype.

He did not speak to the media afterwards, which only fueled rumours of a possible trade, particularly the idea of him returning to the Kansas City Chiefs.

On Wednesday, Hill addressed these rumours after the team’s practice and made it clear that his focus remains in Miami.

He said: “I’m just focused on right here and right now. We’ve got a beautiful team here and I want to be a part of it.

“We’ve got a great situation here, my family loves it, I enjoy it, the weather’s great, the fans are great.

“So, we’ve got a beautiful situation here, man… We all know the NFL is a business. Whatever happens, happens.

“Moving forward, I would love to be here – I love being here.”

Hill signed a restructured deal with the Dolphins in August, worth $90 million over the next three years, with $65 million guaranteed.

Since joining the team in 2022, Hill has been a dominant force, leading the NFL in receiving yards and setting personal bests in consecutive seasons.
