Since the conclusion of the 2023 season, Tyreek Hill has been actively seeking a new contract. The recent signing of A.J. Brown by the Eagles has only added to the urgency for Hill to secure a new deal. With Justin Jefferson likely to drive up salaries even further, Hill’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, has been in touch with the Miami Dolphins regarding his contract status compared to other players who have surpassed him in pay.
According to Rosenhaus, Hill desires to remain with the Dolphins long-term and is willing to sign a new contract that reflects his value to the team. Currently set to earn $19.765 million this year, with an average of $25 million due to a $45 million compensation package in 2026, Hill is looking for a significant pay increase. Players like Jaylen Waddle are already earning $28.25 million per year at the top of their market rates, making it clear that Hill wants more than what he is currently being paid.
Hill’s insistence on being appropriately compensated stems from his desire to retire with the Dolphins, and he believes that a new contract is necessary for him to achieve this goal while maintaining his commitment to the team. The Dolphins are aware of Hill’s stance and recognize that addressing his contract situation promptly is crucial if they want him to continue playing for them.
With the evolving landscape of player salaries in the NFL, it will be interesting to see how the Dolphins approach Hill’s contract negotiations. However, one thing is certain – if they want Tyreek Hill on their roster for years to come, they will need to provide him with a salary package that reflects his value as one of their top receivers.
