Tyreek Hill spent the first six seasons of his NFL career with the Kansas City Chiefs, winning a Super Bowl and earning a Pro Bowl selection each year before being traded to the Miami Dolphins in 2022.
Hill got off to a strong start in Miami, posting his two best statistical seasons in 2022 and 2023. However, the last two seasons have been inconsistent, and this past year ended early after he suffered a torn ACL in Week 4 on Monday Night Football against the New York Jets.
Now entering the final year of his contract with Miami, speculation has swirled — much of it fueled by Hill himself — about his future with the Dolphins, especially with a new head coach and the likely arrival of a new starting quarterback following Tua Tagovailoa’s benching late in the season.
On Thursday, Hill added fuel to the rumors with a post about the Chiefs’ recent hire of offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, who also served as Hill’s OC during his time in Kansas City.
“EB to the Chiefs, hm,” Hill wrote, one day after posting, “Mike [McDaniel] to the Chargers, hm.”

“Run it back,” a fan said.
Another added, “Would be epic if you came back home to the Kingdom.”
One person wrote, “The master of vague texting has returned. Cheetah, come on home. You know you miss us.”
“Come back home. We know you want us as much as we do,” a fan shared.
Another commented, “Just say what you mean, bruh. Don’t be scared… say it: ‘Trade me to the Chiefs.’”
However, a trade to the Chiefs wouldn’t come easily. Hill carries a massive cap hit of roughly $51.9 million in 2026, including a $29.9 million base salary and a $5 million bonus due in March.
The most plausible scenario would be for the Dolphins to release him. While they would still absorb some cost, they would save significantly compared to the full cap hit, and Hill would then be free to sign with any team — potentially the Chiefs.
