Patrick Mahomes’ favourite wide receiver is no longer a Chief. Let’s take a look at Tyreek Hill unprecedented contract with the Dolphins after he was traded to them, his salary and net worth
Davante Adams wasn’t only moved from the Packers to the Raiders last week; he also received a massive contract extension that changed the wide receiver market. And the Miami Dolphins and Tyreek Hill are resetting the clock this week.
The Kansas City Chiefs dealt the Cheetah to the Miami Dolphins for a package of selections, including a 2022 first-rounder, in an eye-popping trade that once again upsets the NFL’s power balance. They immediately signed Hill to a four-year contract extension worth $120 million, setting a new record for average annual contract value and guaranteed money.
Tyreek Hill Miami Dolphins’ Contract Details, Salary, Net Worth, Stats, Height And Top Speed
It’s been a whirlwind of a trade season and free agency. Let’s take a moment to gather our breath before diving into the specifics of this historic Tyreek Hill contract.
Tyreek Hill’s salary and contract details were initially reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter via agent Drew Rosenhaus.
- Years: 4
- Total value: $120,000,000 (No. 2 all-time among WRs)
- Average annual value: $30,000,000 (No. 1 all-time among WRs)
- Fully guaranteed at signing: $52,535,000 (No. 1 all-time among WRs)
- Total guaranteed money: $72,200,000 (No. 1 all-time among WRs)
- Free agency: 2026
Hill’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus, sees this as a four-year, $120 million deal, making him the highest-paid wide receiver in NFL history in terms of average annual contract value (Adams received $28 million), total guaranteed money (Adams received $67.5 million), and money fully guaranteed at signing (DeAndre Hopkins is second at $42.75 million).
However, some of this is a matter of interpretation.
Some of the money in that $120 million amount was already in place as part of Tom Pelissero’s prior contract, which was set to expire next year. In effect, we’re talking about three extra years and $75 million in fresh funds:
