The Miami Dolphins are still working on a contract to keep star wide receiver <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/tyreek-hill-118482/">Tyreek Hill</a> with the franchise for the foreseeable future. 



While speaking to the media about his potential future contract, Hill explained that his priority is going to be staying with the Dolphins for the rest of his career instead of potentially maximizing what he can make as a player.



“Ensuring I’m a Dolphin for life,” Tyreek Hill <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=im5M9GXAv_c" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">said</a>. “That’s number one. That’s priority number one, man. This is obviously the best situation for myself and the family. I don’t think it could get any better, whether it’s just to live in an establishment in the state and the taxes. Everything. The weather. Everything that comes with just living in Miami is just beautiful, man. We love it.”



Hill is currently playing on a $120 million contract that, when he signed it in 2022, made him the <a href="https://www.on3.com/pro/category/nfl/news/">NFL’</a>s highest-paid wide receiver. That was a four-year contract. However, since then, that number has been reset by <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/justin-jefferson-142251/">Justin Jefferson</a>‘s $140 million contract. 



“And it’s awesome just to be here,” Hill said. “You know, coaches are wonderful, teammates are wonderful and I’m like a 20-minute flight from the Bahamas. So I can just go to Bahamas anytime I want to and do what I got to do.”



Tyreek Hill started his career with the Kansas City Chiefs. There, he became a star in the sport and a Super Bowl champion. He was traded to Miami in 2022 and has continued to thrive, being named an All-Pro in each of his two seasons with the Dolphins.

Tyreek Hill isn’t the only Dolphin that needs a new contract. Quarterback <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/tua-tagovailoa-116794/">Tua Tagovailoa</a> needs one too, which is something that Hill believes should have already happened. 



“Tua should’ve been paid. I’ve been saying this all offseason, man, and I know we’ve got a great front office with [Chris] Grier and [Brandon] Shore. They’re gonna get it done. Obviously, a lot of people are comparing it to the Jared Goff situation and stuff like that, but I feel like Tua is supposed to be up there with and past some of those guys because just understanding his story and the progression of how he’s getting better each and every year and how he’s carrying this offense is crazy,” <a href="https://www.on3.com/pro/news/tyreek-hill-believes-tua-tagovailoa-shouldve-been-paid-by-now/">Hill said</a>.



“So, he’s going to continue to get better because I feel like when you get a new contract, they’re not paying you for what you did. It’s almost like an investment, you feel me? It’s almost like an investment of what you’re gonna do in the future. So, he’s continually getting better. He’s gradually getting better each year. Last year was Pro Bowl. This year is gonna be a playoff win and much more. So, Tua should’ve been paid.”
