Chiefs are trading six-time Pro-Bowl WR Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins for five draft picks: a 2022 1st-round pick (No. 29), a 2nd-round pick (No. 50) and a 4th-round pick, as well as 4th- and 6th-round picks in the 2023 draft, sources tell ESPN.

He could lose two steps and still be quicker/faster than other elite receivers like Lamb, Adams, and Jefferson.
Agreed. He’s that kind of special player that comes along once in a great while. He’s a burner, yea, but he was taught to be a helluva route runner too. So as he ages he’ll still find the open spots, catch, make somebody miss and move forward.
I’d say the only thing that can stop him is child support. [Reply]
He’s referring to the Dolphins/Bills playoff game that the Dolphins behind QB3 Skylar Thompson should’ve won had they been able to get plays in on time. [Reply]

I’m reminded when our galaxy brains were pants shitting over the dolphins when the ScOrEd SiXtY pOiNtS!!!!!!!
Against the Donx.
Ok, it was 70 points so a little different. Their starters scored 50 then their backups scored 20 not even trying lol it was pretty impressive, especially considering the fact that we only average like 20 PPG against the same defense. [Reply]

Yep, he’s a Hall of Fame talent. I was sure of it as far back as 2017.
None of those dudes fall off at 30. Hell, Desean Jackson was smaller, slower and never really became a great route runner or contested catcher (like Tyreek) and yet he was really effective into his 30s. [Reply]

Yeah, he turned himself into a good route runner and thats got him a ticket to the HOF.
He'll be an elite WR for another 3-4 years. And maybe another 1-2 years as one of the top 5-10 WR in the game. [Reply]

I mean, sure it was an impressive game for Miami, but:
The Chiefs and Dolphins were both legendary for a game this last football season.
The Fins got a nice regular season W, a pat on the back, and Twitter and sports show talking heads going nuts for a week.
The Chiefs got a Lombardi trophy for their effort. :-) [Reply]

When you rush for 350 yards and 8ypc and 5 rushing touchdowns, IMO that's a lot more about an NFL defense quitting than a super impressive offensive performance.
The Chiefs struggles against them and the Broncos turnaround just goes to show how badly they quit in that game (and tbe Chiefs didn't really give a shit, either). [Reply]

I still think Hill could be back here in 2026/2027 for his age 32 and 33 seasons.
Maybe not - he may just be fully into being in Miami and have no interest in coming back to cold-ass KC. He has his rings, his money, his HoF career - there's nothing much else to play for at that point. He could just hang 'em up as he's suggested at times.
But I think he's been pretty damn disappointed to not be a part of what's been built here and I think he may be interested in finishing things up here. [Reply]

Obviously that sort of performance requires a perfect storm of a lot of factors, but it was only week 3. I don’t think the players had given up on the season just yet. If they gave up that particular day, it was probably because they were already getting manhandled.
Credit to the Dolphins. It was like that 8 rushing TD day we laid on the Falcons back in 04 or whatever.

If it makes sense financially, I’d welcome him back with open arms.
He’s one of my favorite Chiefs of all time. He’s certainly one of the most electric and fun to watch, up there with guys like Pat and Jamaal Charles. [Reply]

He ain't coming back. In 2026 he'll be 32, probably still pretty damn effective and looking for a final payday. Which the Chiefs ain't gonna give him.
