Former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill shared a new video that teases a comeback, but should the team bring him back?
Amid the multiple released players for the Miami Dolphins was Tyreek Hill. Hill suffered a gruesome season-ending injury in 2025, which was a dislocated knee and multiple torn ligaments, including his ACL.
There have been rumors and reports that Hill would not play in 2026, but the receiver has now teased his comeback in a social media video.
In the video, Hill is shown during his recovery from surgery, and also current instances of him working out seemingly without any limitations. The end of the video is the most interesting, as a doctor asks if he is "looking to do something."
The audio cuts off as Hill answers the question. It can be assumed he is talking about playing in 2026, but that has not yet been confirmed.
Should Dolphins Bring Back Hill?
Breaking this video down to what it could mean for the Dolphins gets very interesting. Hill was seen at the facility during his recovery, and despite having to be released for cap issues, there appears to be no hard feelings between the receiver and the organization.
Now, Miami would likely have to pay some decent money to bring him back.
Per Spotrac, Hill has a projected contract value of $15 million. Even after his injury, that is a lot of money to spend on a player that may or may not be the same as they were in previous years.
Though that can be the case, Hill is a special player. As he has said himself many times, "Cheetahs don't get hurt." Though he did get hurt, the idea behind the statement could still ring true.
Hill emerged as one of the best receivers in the league with Tua Tagovailoa throwing him the ball.
In four seasons in Miami, he secured 4,733 yards and 27 touchdowns. Two of those seasons saw him bring in more than 1,700 yards.
Currently, the Dolphins have a mismash of veteran receivers that have had somewhat success in the NFL. Jalen Tolbert and Tutu Atwell lead the group, which also includes Malik Washington, Tahj Washington, rookies Chris Bell and Caleb Douglas, and more.
If the Dolphins truly want to give Malik Willis a chance at being solid in 2026, adding a player like Hill would be that move. Granted, he goes completely against the idea of getting younger and cheaper, but his addition would make a lot of sense.
This would also depend on whether Hill would want to come back to a rebuilding team, and potentially on a deal that may not be the most lucrative.
Still, the idea of his release and resigning would be a solid story for Hill and the Dolphins.
