The Miami Dolphins have released wide receiver Tyreek Hill with immediate effect.<\/b><\/p>\n
The 31-year-old has been selected for the Pro Bowl in eight of his first 10 seasons in the NFL but is currently recovering from a serious knee injury.<\/p>\n
The Dolphins cited “failed physical” as the reason for Hill’s departure as they also released offensive lineman James Daniels and wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine on Monday.<\/p>\n
Know as ‘the Cheetah’, Hill has been one of the quickest players in the NFL since being drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016, helping them win the Super Bowl in 2020.<\/p>\n
The Chiefs traded him to Miami in 2022 to make room under their salary cap and since then he has ranked sixth for most receiving yards in he NFL.<\/p>\n
During that period, Hill missed just one game until last September, when he sustained a dislocated knee and multiple torn ligaments,<\/a> including his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).<\/p>\n The Dolphins went on to finish the season with their second straight losing record under head coach Mike McDaniel, who has since been replaced by Jeff Hafley.<\/a><\/p>\n He has set about rebuilding the Dolphins roster, with Tua Tagovailoa also linked with a move from Miami having failed to establish himself as their franchise quarterback.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
