Toward the end of the 2023 season, it seemed as if the Miami Dolphins were finally starting to figure things out. Tyreek Hill and Tua Tagovailoa were putting up career numbers, and even though they did not grab that elusive playoff win, the fact that they were able to win 11 games and appear in a second-consecutive postseason game suggested that they were getting things right.

And then, it all began to fall apart from the very next campaign. Tagovailoa’s turnovers became regular and problematic, and Hill was growing frustrated with both his quarterback and the franchise.

Two seasons down the road, neither Hill nor his head coach, Mike McDaniel, is in Miami. While McDaniel has moved to LA as the Chargers’ OC, the wide receiver will likely struggle to find a new team, according to Jason La Canfora of the Wanna Bet? podcast.

According to Canfora’s anonymous source, Hill is having a tough time finding a team to join because of both his physical and mental state.

“We aren’t touching him. No chance. We think he’s done. He isn’t a difference-maker anymore,” the source told Confora.

The fact that Hill tore his knee at the age of 31 had made him a bit of a tough sell already. And when you factor in Hill’s antics on social media, which were prevalent throughout his final two seasons in Miami, it is a big red flag. Most general managers won’t be willing to tolerate those extracurricular activities just in case he’s still as fast as he used to be.

In other words (those being what the anonymous GM told Canfora), “The juice isn’t worth the squeeze.” That may seem crazy to say given Hill’s resume, which includes five All-Pro titles and a world championship. But as we all know, fortunes change all of a sudden in the world of professional football.

Of course, there’s always the possibility of Hill reuniting with his former quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, in Kansas City and continuing to offer up a modest amount of production. Yes, it seems like his days of producing 1,200+ receiving yards every year are far behind us. He’ll certainly make for a splash signing with some contending teams this offseason, but fans shouldn’t be banking on him to help win the fantasy leagues in 2026.
