Availability
Tyreek Hill says that he still has “no power” in his left leg that he injured early on in 2025 while playing for the Miami Dolphins. The free agent receiver still has a ways to go before playing football again.
Fantasy Impact
Hill suffered a gruesome knee dislocation and multiple ligament tears in Week 4 of 2025, missing the rest of the season. It’s a big blow to his chances of finding a team and making his way back onto the field in 2026, especially if he is still struggling to find power in his injured leg. More than likely he will miss the majority of 2026, and its possible he will not see the field again until 2027.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter said Tyreek Hill “might not be ready until midway through the season.”
Fantasy Impact
Hill suffered a gruesome knee injury in Week 4 of last season when he dislocated his knee, while also tearing his ACL and LCL. He has undergone multiple surgeries since his injury. He remains without a clear timetable to return as a free agent.
Tyreek Hill is being released by the Miami Dolphins. The move saves the team $22 million in cap space, and Hill will become an unrestricted free agent.
Fantasy Impact
Hill is still recovering from a brutal knee injury, and even at age 32, he should find some suitors if he still desires to play. He could be a sneaky value in fantasy drafts in 2026 because of all this. As for Miami, they will move forward with Jaylen Waddle as their clear No.1 option, and will likely add some depth via free agency and the draft with the rest of their receiving room not showing much promise.
Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald believes the Dolphins “almost assuredly” will release Tyreek Hill before mid-March.
Fantasy Impact
Hill is set to make $29.9 million next season, but none of that money is guaranteed until mid-March. If he is released prior to that deadline, his 2026 cap hit would drop from $51.9 million to $28.2 million. Coming off a major knee injury in Week 4 this past season, he should still draw some interest as a free agent.
Tyreek Hill underwent successful surgery on Tuesday and is aiming to be ready for the start of next season.
Fantasy Impact
Hill only had to go through one procedure which was a positive sign given what happened in Monday's game against the Jets. Hill’s agent Drew Rosenhaus said "the goal is for Tyreek to be ready for the start of next season.”
