Tyreek Hill is still one of the most dangerous all-around players in the NFL. Even though the speedy receiver is coming off a down season, he’s aiming for a huge bounce-back year in 2025.

On Thursday, Hill took to social media — specifically Snapchat. That typically hasn’t been a good thing for the Dolphins star, considering it’s the same platform where he’s stirred up controversy in the past. Whether it was throwing shade at his own quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa, or hinting he wanted out of Miami, Snapchat has been home to some of Hill’s biggest headlines.

This time, though, Miami might not mind what they saw.

In a highlight package post, Hill said, “I’m so locked in this year, I might go for 3,500.”

Of course, it was an exaggeration. The most receiving yards in a single season belongs to Calvin Johnson, who posted 1,964 for the Detroit Lions in 2012. Hill’s career best came in 2023 when he racked up 1,799 yards. Still, the comment reflects his mindset heading into the season.

Hill, 31, says he’s bringing the best version of himself to the field this year.

“This whole offseason, I’ve been busting my tail,” Hill said. “I told my dad — I want to see what it looks like when I just focus on football, on myself and family. I feel like I haven’t been giving the best version of Tyreek my whole entire career. I’ve always been trying to be here and be there, but me being able to slow down a little bit, train and bust my tail for myself and then also for this community and this team, I feel like it’ll be worth it.”

For a Dolphins team looking to regain momentum after a disappointing finish in 2024, a fully locked-in Tyreek Hill could be the spark they need. Miami’s offense is at its best when Hill is producing at an elite level, and if he even comes close to his lofty prediction, the AFC East race could get interesting fast.
