The Miami Dolphins are set for significant changes in 2026, releasing five-time All-Pro wide receiver Tyreek Hill to alleviate salary cap issues, following the earlier release of edge rusher Bradley Chubb. Hill’s cap hit for 2026 is $51.1 million, and his release will save the Dolphins $22.9 million, although they will incur a $28.2 million dead cap hit. Over four seasons, Hill accumulated 340 receptions for 4,733 yards and 27 touchdowns, but he missed most of 2025 due to injury. He will enter free agency on March 1, joining other notable receivers like Deebo Samuel and Christian Kirk.
