Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill has addressed the trade rumors about him potentially going back to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Tyreek Hill was visibly frustrated on the sidelines during Miami’s ugly home loss to the Tennessee Titans on Monday night, and the Chiefs need receiving help after losing Rashee Rice indefinitely (possibly for the year) with a knee injury.
With the Dolphins (1-3) likely to fall out of the playoff race while Tua Tagovailoa remains sidelined, some fans and pundits have proposed the idea of the Chiefs re-acquiring a key part of their Super Bowl 54 championship team.
Per Adam H. Beasley of Pro Football Network, Tyreek Hill was asked by a reporter about a potential return to Kansas City, but the 30-year-old made it clear that his wish is to stay with the Dolphins:
“I’m just focused on right here and right now. We got a beautiful team here. And I wanna be a part of it, you know. We got a great situation here. My family loves it. I enjoy it. The weather’s great, the fans are great. So we got a beautiful situation here, man.
“Obviously, you know, my parents always taught me, control the controllable, and I only can control so much, you know what I’m saying? So with that being said, we all know the NFL is a business. Whatever happens, happens, you know what I’m saying? So moving forward, I would love to be here. I love being here, you know, I love the guys.”
For what it’s worth, Hill also had this hilarious message to for his X followers:

The Dolphins offense has been a mess since Tagovailoa suffered a concussion in Miami’s Week 2 home loss to the Buffalo Bills. Since his 130-yard performance in a Week 1 win over the Miami Dolphins, Hill has just 10 receptions for 67 receptions and no touchdowns.
Considering the price Miami gave up for Hill two years ago, it’s hard to imagine that they’d want to trade “Cheetah” while he’s still in his prime, let alone to the league’s most dangerous team.
Tyreek Hill Is Part Of Dolphins’ Solution
If Tagovailoa doesn’t return within the next few weeks, and if Miami’s backup quarterbacks can’t get anything going, then 2024 will be a lost year. It would be tough for Hill and the Dolphins to stomach, but it’s looking more and more like a reality at this point.
That said, trading Hill does nothing to improve Miami’s chances of winning a Super Bowl championship, so don’t expect it to actually happen.
