If Mike Florio\u2019s sources are correct, the Pittsburgh Steelers are interested in Miami Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill. After making a blockbuster deal<\/a> with the Dolphins in late June that brought over DB Jalen Ramsey and TE Jonnu Smith, the Steelers are keeping tabs on Hill as another potential playmaker. Appearing on 93.7 The Fan Wednesday afternoon, Florio added color to a recent article that expressed \u201cchatter\u201d about Pittsburgh and Hill.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll give you a little nugget that made the Steelers chatter a little more interesting to me,\u201d Florio told The Fan\u2019s Andrew Fillipponi and Chris Mueller.<\/a> \u201cThe same guy who told me that Jalen Ramsey was gonna be a Steeler, right when the first talk emerged of the Dolphins trading Jalen Ramsey, told me that the Steelers want Tyreek. And I scoffed when this guy first told me that the Steelers want Jalen Ramsey. And that was back in April. So I\u2019m taking this a little more seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n

We didn\u2019t write Florio\u2019s initial comments because \u201cchatter\u201d is so vague and unclear. Today\u2019s comments are much more specific and sourced with an apparent positive track record. However, it\u2019s important to mention that Florio made clear his source passed those comments along before new allegations from Hill\u2019s estranged wife of domestic violence on multiple occasions.<\/a><\/p>\n

The NFL is reportedly looking into the matter.<\/p>\n

The NFL is looking into the allegations of domestic violation against Tyreek Hill by his estranged wife. \u201cIt\u2019s standard policy for the league to review a matter such as this,\u201d a league spokesman tells @NFLonCBS<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Catching four passes for 40 passes, Hill\u2019s Dolphins were rocked in Week 1, and more losses will turn the team into a seller by the trade deadline. Returning to the Kansas City Chiefs are easy dots to connect but Hill carries a $10 million base salary while the Chiefs currently have just over $2 million in cap space. Each week that goes by reduces the amount of money another team would have to pay him, but the Steelers are financially in a better spot than many other receiver-needy teams. Hill\u2019s contract voids after the 2026 season.<\/p>\n

Of course, it\u2019s fair to question if the Steelers consider themselves \u201creceiver needy.\u201d Calvin Austin III had a strong 2024 campaign and kept things rolling in Week 1, catching four passes for 70 yards and a touchdown against the New York Jets. Depth behind DK Metcalf and Austin is thin but the Steelers also view tight ends Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith as de facto receivers who are integral to the passing game.<\/p>\n

Even if Pittsburgh has interest in Hill, the looming possibility of NFL discipline stemming from the domestic violence allegations could damper any talks. Any trade involving Hill still isn\u2019t likely to happen for several more weeks, giving time for clarity on Pittsburgh\u2019s receiver depth and Hill\u2019s legal situation.<\/p>\n
