Dolphins Cut Hill: Where Will He Land Next?
17 Feb
Summary
- Tyreek Hill released by Miami Dolphins after four years.
- San Francisco 49ers are a likely landing spot for Hill.
- Hill's potential move could challenge the Los Angeles Rams.

The Miami Dolphins have officially released wide receiver Tyreek Hill, concluding a four-year tenure marked by impressive statistics and notable off-field incidents. Hill, who led the league in receiving yards and touchdowns in 2023, saw a production decline in recent seasons due to offensive scheme issues, injuries, and personal matters.
Sports Illustrated's Mike Kadlick suggests the San Francisco 49ers are a prime candidate to sign Hill. The 49ers possess a potent offense but could benefit from an elite receiver, especially with Brandon Aiyuk's uncertain future and Ricky Pearsall's serviceable but not game-breaking performance. Hill's speed could complement the 49ers' run game and elevate Brock Purdy's passing attack.
A potential signing of Hill by the 49ers would present a significant strategic challenge for the Los Angeles Rams. Their defensive schemes, particularly against deep threats and screen passes, could be exploited. However, the ongoing drama surrounding Brandon Aiyuk's contract could potentially deter the 49ers from pursuing Hill, leaving his future destination uncertain as of February 17, 2026.
