The Dolphins have released Tyreek Hill today. Hill turns 32 on March 1st and was set to carry a $51.1 million cap hit in 2026, which have given him the highest cap number amongst non-quarterbacks coming into the season. The decision leaves Miami $28.2 million in dead money, but also creates almost $23 million in cap space by releasing Hill now. Ocho, which team is the best landing spot for Tyreek? The Chiefs, the Bills, or the Chargers?
I think Tyreek's next move has to be his best move. Obviously, coming off an injury, going to a team where he's going to be utilized in the correct way, I think the Bills would be a nice place for him. Obviously, you have Shakur, who was somewhat in that same position and being in the slot, but Tyreek being able to play on the outside. I like the Chiefs. The Chiefs also being able to use him the correct way. It all comes down to how healthy is he going to be when he's recovered, even once he goes to rehab. Even a Tyreek Hill that's not as fast as he once was is probably still faster than everybody else. I think that's what it's going to come down to.
What are the implications of Tyreek Hill's release for his career?
I think the Dolphins might have moved on a little too fast, honestly, just in my own personal opinion.
Who are the most hated players in the NFL and why?
They could have restructured and found a way to get that salary a little bit lower with him coming off the injury, but to let a player of his magnitude go... which is a staple of your offense, obviously having A-chan, having Waddle as well, I don't think they should have let him go. That's just my personal opinion. Obviously, being 32 and coming off injury, you know how this business works.
Serious, serious injury.
Injury, yes.
What did Jerry Jones say about Michael Irvin's leadership?
That ain't just no ACL.
How did Josh Jacobs feel about playing with Antonio Brown?
He tore a lot of ligaments and he broke his tibia.
Yeah, I understand. But rehab, the resources, the access to some of the methods he has to get himself back to where he once was, I think that the chances of him coming back and being the Tyreek of old is possible. Even if he's not the same Tyreek of old, it will still be better than... to hit damn near 98% of the receivers in the NFL if he's used correctly.
Well, the writing was on the roll. I'm surprised that it moved on to offseason.
What are the challenges faced by players after being released?
After what had transpired the last game, Ocho, we talked about this. The one thing you can't do as a player, players will forgive a lot, but you can't leave them out to dry. You can't quit on them. When things are going bad, that's when your best players, that's when I need Ocho to show up and be his best. I understand, Ocho, we're not going to the playoffs.
How does team culture affect player behavior?
I understand, Ocho, you're not going to get your customary 90 catches, 1300 yards. But don't quit on me. Don't be a guy that when things are going good, they go great, and when they go bad, they go terribly, horribly wrong. And so I thought they would move on in the offseason because I knew he would never have the same trust in that locker room that he once had. Go ahead, Ocho.
What lessons can be learned from the careers of controversial players?
Can I tell you something? I can tell you why they didn't move on. They didn't move on because they understood his value. They understood his true value despite him giving up, despite him quitting in that previous season. We can't let someone like this go. Look at the numbers he's put up. Look what he does for us offensively. He makes everyone else job around him that much easier because we have to, everyone has to focus on him in game. So it opens up everything else. So of course they were going to let him go, but now that he's injured, now that he's hurt, and it's kind of up in the air, you don't know what you're going to get. Once he's back healthy, you know what?
