Free‑agent wide receiver Tyreek Hill used his X account on Wednesday to write, “I think I’m ready for some cold weather.” The comment came two days after he hinted that it was “almost time to get off the couch and get to work.” Hill, 32, also shared an Instagram workout clip last week that showed him running on a beach, appearing fully recovered from the torn ACL and dislocated left knee he suffered in September 2025.
Why the cold‑weather comment matters
Hill’s statement has reignited the conversation about where the eight‑time Pro Bowl selection might land next season. While his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, has said publicly that Hill wants to join a contender, the exact destination remains uncertain. The timing of the tweet—just weeks before the start of free‑agency negotiations—suggests Hill is positioning himself for a team that can immediately benefit from his speed and play‑making ability.
Potential destinations
Kansas City Chiefs (3‑0) – A return to Kansas City would reunite Hill with quarterback Patrick Mahomes, a pairing that proved lethal during Hill’s first stint with the Chiefs. The Chiefs’ receiving corps already includes Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy and tight end Travis Kelce, giving Hill a familiar environment and a chance to add another vertical threat.
Green Bay Packers (1‑2) – The Packers recently lost wide receiver Jayden Reed to a season‑ending neck injury. Adding Hill could give Green Bay a veteran presence and a deep‑ball option to complement Christian Watson and Matthew Golden.
Buffalo Bills (3‑0) – The Bills are looking to keep quarterback Josh Allen at the top of the AFC. With tight end Dalton Kincaid leading the team in catches and the recent acquisition of DJ Moore still finding its rhythm, Hill would provide another explosive weapon for the offense.
Baltimore Ravens (2‑1) – The Ravens could pair Hill with wide receiver Zay Flowers and give Lamar Jackson an additional deep‑field target. The team’s recent wrist injury to rookie Ja’Kobi Lane has left a gap that Hill’s speed could help fill.
Recent performance and career overview
Hill was released by the Miami Dolphins on Feb. 16 in a cost‑cutting move after four seasons with the team, making him a free agent for the first time in his career. In 2025, before his injury, Hill caught 21 passes for 265 yards and one touchdown in four games. Over his career, he has amassed 819 receptions for 11,363 yards and 83 touchdowns in 145 regular‑season games (127 starts) with the Chiefs (2016‑21) and Dolphins (2022‑25).
What fans can expect
As the free‑agency period progresses, teams will weigh Hill’s health, salary expectations and fit within their offensive schemes. While the tweet does not confirm any deal, it signals that Hill is ready to return to the field and that the league’s cold‑weather markets are now on his radar. Fans of the potential destination teams will be watching closely for official announcements in the coming weeks.
Until a contract is signed, Hill’s future remains a topic of lively debate among analysts, former teammates and the broader NFL community.
