According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, WR Tyreek Hill remains fond of the Chiefs and it would make a lot of sense for him to rejoin Kansas City midseason once he’s healthy.
Right now Hill is waiting until October at the earliest to sign on with a team on the advice of his doctors. He’s rehabbing a gruesome dislocated knee injury that knocked him out late September of last year.
ESPN’s Nate Taylor said a few months ago the Chiefs were expected to monitor Hill’s recovery from his knee injury, but they are the only team explicitly connected to the veteran as of now.
Hill, 32, is a former fifth-round pick of the Chiefs back in 2016. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $2.58 million contract in 2019 when the Chiefs signed him to a new three-year, $54 million extension that included $35.2 million guaranteed.
The Chiefs traded Hill to the Dolphins during the 2022 offseason. From there, Hill signed a four-year, $120 million contract with the Dolphins, which included $72.2 million in guaranteed money.
He was due base salaries of $19.665 million and $21.835 million over his next two seasons when he agreed to a reworked three-year, $90 million contract with $65 million in guarantees heading into the 2024 season. Miami then released Hill in February 2026 as he was recovering from a significant leg injury.
In 2025, Hill appeared in four games for the Dolphins and caught 21 passes on 29 targets for 265 yards and one touchdown.
