Free agent wide receiver Tyreek Hill remains unsigned before NFL season opener

Summary

Former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill remains a free agent with the 2026 NFL regular season scheduled to begin within the week. Hill underwent multiple surgeries to address torn ligaments in his knee sustained during the 2025 season. Although his agent previously suggested he would be available for the current season, his recovery timeline has stalled. The veteran is reportedly not expected to be a roster option for any team until later in the year. The Miami Dolphins released Hill following his injury, moving to a new receiving corps that features rookie Caleb Douglas.
