Chris Perkins: Dolphins trade Tyreek Hill? You must be freakin' crazy
"The day the Dolphins trade wide receiver Tyreek Hill is the day the rebuild gets underway. Tyreek is the Dolphins' offense. If I was in charge of the Dolphins, there's no way I would trade Tyreek while there's still a chance of making the playoffs. Understand something important here: this isn't about the real-world issue of the league announcing it's investigating domestic abuse allegations against Tyreek. This is about the narrow-focus reality of winning NFL games."
"If the Dolphins (0-1) can't figure out how to get the ball to Tyreek this week against New England, there's a good chance they'll lose. I'm an on-field Tyreek fan. And if you know me, you know what I've said about the Dolphins since December 2022: This offense is about two things - Tyreek Hill and the threat of Tyreek Hill."
"Tyreek, because he commands so much attention from the defense, opens things up for others and makes the game easier for the entire offense. By the way, in those 11 wins, Tyreek averages 144 yards per game and has 12 touchdowns. In those 24 losses, he averages 53 yards per game and has seven touchdowns. I also always cite the fact that Tyreek hasn't had a 100-yard game against a playoff team since 2022, which is why the Dolphins are 2-10 against playoff teams"
The Dolphins' offense is defined by Tyreek Hill's presence and the threat he poses to defenses. The team is 11-0 and averages 35 points when Hill has 100 or more yards, and 7-17 with 18 points per game when he has 99 or fewer yards. Hill's ability to command defensive attention opens opportunities for teammates and simplifies offensive execution. Hill averages 144 yards and 12 touchdowns in those wins versus 53 yards and seven touchdowns in losses. The offense is overly reliant on Hill, and trading him would begin a rebuild rather than preserve playoff hopes.
