Steelers Seek Miami Dolphins Star Tyreek Hill Amid Trade Talks

The Miami Dolphins are facing significant challenges early in the 2025 NFL season, following a demoralizing 33-8 loss to the Indianapolis Colts that has sparked trade rumors around key players. Despite Tyreek Hill's rocky relationship with the team, experts like NFL Network's Tom Pelissero and insiders including Mike Florio indicate that a trade for Hill is unlikely in the near term, as Miami is not yet ready to 'wave the white flag,' and no concrete trade offers have surfaced. However, the Pittsburgh Steelers remain a frequently mentioned potential destination for Hill, given their need for offensive weapons behind D.K. Metcalf and the recent acquisition of other Dolphins players such as Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith. Additionally, there is speculation about trading running back De’Von Achane, one of Miami's few offensive bright spots, to the Steelers as part of a broader rebuilding effort. Meanwhile, the Dolphins prepare to face the New England Patriots, a team also struggling but seen as less desperate, with both teams seeking a crucial Week 2 victory amid injuries and coaching uncertainties. The situation underscores a Miami team at a crossroads, balancing the desire to rebuild with the challenges of retaining star talent amid a disappointing start to the season.
