Going back to last year, the Pittsburgh Steelers have been trying to upgrade their No. 2 wide receiver spot. For a brief moment this offseason, they had their answer, but then, they traded George Pickens. Since then, they\u2019ve poked around a few different receivers, but they haven\u2019t made any significant additions. However, perhaps that could change if Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill becomes available.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cCould he potentially be on the move?\u201d NFL insider James Palmer said recently on Bleacher Report\u2019s YouTube channel.<\/a> \u201cCertainly. Could it be closer to the trade deadline? That\u2019s much more likely. This could be a fourth-round pick. This could be a fifth-round pick. It could be somewhere in that range, but it\u2019s not something that the Dolphins are entertaining right now, to my understanding.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s something they didn\u2019t entertain in the offseason. Teams called during the offseason as they were watching the Dolphins go through this process. Teams asked, and the Dolphins said no. Could that change before the course of the trade deadline? Certainly, but it\u2019s way too early to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hill has been one of the best receivers in the league for several years.<\/a> His speed makes him electric, and he has been a first-team All-Pro multiple times. In 2023, he posted his third straight season of over 100 receptions, pairing that with 1,799 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

However, Hill had a down year in 2024. He caught 81 passes for 954 yards and six touchdowns. That\u2019s still a fine year, but it doesn\u2019t meet Hill\u2019s standards. His relationship with the Dolphins looked like it soured last season, culminating in a trade request this offseason.<\/p>\n

While he walked that back eventually, things still seem tense in Miami. Hill had an underwhelming Week 1, catching four passes for 40 yards as the Dolphins got blown out by the Indianapolis Colts.<\/p>\n

If things continue to go wrong for the Dolphins, then maybe Hill will be on the move. If Palmer is correct, then it shouldn\u2019t cost much in the way of draft capital to acquire him. While he could be on the decline, even if he\u2019s only as good as he was last year, he could be an upgrade for the Steelers.<\/p>\n

However, the situation is more complicated than that. Hill is being investigated on allegations of domestic violence. His history with the law isn\u2019t pretty, to say the least. Therefore, that issue could have a dramatic impact on the Steelers\u2019 potential interest in him.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll see how things with Hill develop as the season progresses. It doesn\u2019t seem like anything major is imminent with him, though. The Steelers\u2019 offense had a good showing in Week 1, so maybe they don\u2019t need to upgrade at wide receiver.<\/a> The next few weeks should help make this picture a little clearer.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Going back to last year, the Pittsburgh Steelers have been trying to upgrade their No. 2 wide receiver…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":150859,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[9749,93046,1322,349,1321,99,3795,31103],"class_list":["post-150858","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-bleacher-report","tag-james-palmer","tag-miami-dolphins","tag-nfl","tag-pittsburgh-steelers","tag-sports","tag-trending","tag-tyreek-hill"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/150858","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=150858"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/150858\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/150859"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=150858"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=150858"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=150858"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
