By speaking out selfishly the way he did, receiver Tyreek Hill effectively closed the door on his time with the Miami Dolphins. They have to move on.

Moments after a disappointing season concluded, Tyreek Hill appeared to open the door for a trade request out of Miami.

Tyreek Hill turned heads during the postgame interview, as the superstar wideout claimed he "wants out" of Miami. With the offseason officially beginning for teams not in the playoffs, the 30-year-old wide receiver may get his wish.

Tua Tagovailoa is out for the Miami Dolphins in a must-win game against the New York Jets and Tyler Huntley will start at quarterback in his place.

The Miami Dolphins nearly made the AFC playoffs, but a disappointing season has the franchise turning its attention to the 2025 NFL Draft. Miami needed a win and a Denver Broncos loss in Week 18 to advance to the postseason.

Tagovailoa makes Miami a lighting-fast, slash-and-dash attack that picks defenses apart on timing and yards after the catch. They run through the air, with running back De’Von Achane nearly matching Tyreek Hill and tight end Jonnu Smith in receptions and leading all NFL backs with 699 yards after the catch.

There’s a classic Dutch folk story about a young boy who heroically plugged a small leak in a dike with a finger, preventing a catastrophic flood by holding back the water until help arrives. That spawned the term “fingers in the dike.”

The Pittsburgh Steelers are among the favorites to land Miami Dolphins All-Pro wide receiver Tyreek Hill in a blockbuster trade, according to one sportsbook.

With the Denver Broncos winning against the Kansas City Chiefs in blowout fashion, the Miami Dolphins have been eliminated from playoff contention. The Miami Dolphins head into the final day of the 2024-25 NFL regular season with a chance to secure a playoff berth.
