Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill pleads with agent not to repeat past mistake

Tyreek Hill told reporters on Tuesday that he has one simple, yet critical request for his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, as the star wideout seeks a contract extension with the Miami Dolphins.

"Obviously, I let (my agent) Drew (Rosenhaus) and the team handle that and that situation," Hill said. "The only thing I told Drew was like, 'Do not get me traded, bro. Last time you did this, you got me traded.'"

The 30-year-old reiterated how much he loved playing with Miami.

"That’s been my only thing to him, I’m like — I want to stay here in Miami, man. Obviously, this is where family is now. Everybody loves it here — family loves it, wife loves it, kids love it. So, obviously I love it. I love playing for coach and my teammates are awesome. So, I wouldn’t want to leave, man," Hill said.

The eight-time Pro Bowler has a fully guaranteed contract worth $19.66M in base salary for the 2024 campaign but has no guaranteed money after this year.

Hill has seen his quarterback (Tua Tagovailoa) make headlines this summer, as the lefty seeks a new deal in South Beach as well.

His co-star in the receivers room (Jaylen Waddle) inked a three-year, $87.5M contract extension with the Dolphins in late May.

Other top pass-catchers to sign new contracts with their existing team this offseason have included A.J. Brown of the Philadelphia Eagles and Justin Jefferson of the Minnesota Vikings, among many more.

Hill was selected by the Kansas City Chiefs in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft and spent the first six seasons of his career with the franchise. After earning six straight Pro Bowl honors, three first-team All-Pro nods and one Super Bowl title with the Chiefs, the team traded Hill to the Dolphins in March 2022.
