Though Hill admitted to his previous desire of wanting to go to Cleveland, it’s safe to say things wound up working out well for the 29-year-old.
Following failed contract negotiations with Kansas City Chiefs, the star receiver requested a trade from the franchise. He would eventually be dealt to the Miami Dolphins back on March 23. Aside from inking a highly lucrative $120 million contract with the organization, which includes $72 million in guaranteed salary, Tyreek Hill would see several of his on-field statistics skyrocket to career bests in his seventh season.
Through 17 games played, Hill would finish with 119 receptions for 1,710 receiving yards and 8 total touchdowns. He would also go on to finish fourth in the running for the league’s Offensive Player of the Year award.
With him in tow, Miami broke a playoff draught that spanned six seasons and finished with the eighth-best offensive rating in the entire league.
