FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — The Miami Dolphins topped one blockbuster deal on Tuesday night with an even bigger one on Wednesday, trading for Kansas City Chiefs star wide receiver Tyreek Hill — possibly the fastest player in the NFL.
After landing prized free-agent tackle Terron Armstead to solidify the offensive line, the Dolphins added the speedy Hill, according to a league source, giving quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and Miami’s offense the top-of-the-line receiving threat they desperately needed.
The Dolphins were finalists with AFC East rival New York Jets as both had trade framework in place for Hill, according to ESPN. The decision then came down to where Hill wanted to sign his contract extension.
