Appearing on 93.7 The Fan, Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk revealed that the the same source who said the Pittsburgh Steelers wanted Jalen Ramsey said Pittsburgh wants Tyreek Hill. Florio noted, however, that was prior to allegations accusing Hill of domestic violence.
"The same guy that told me Jalen Ramsey was going to be a Steeler told me that the Steelers wanted Tyreek (Hill)."

Hill’s estranged wife claims that Hill abused her on multiple occasions during their 17-month marriage.
Hill’s attorney is adamant Keeta Vaccaro’s claims are false, saying in a statement to TMZ Sports the allegations “are nothing more than an attempt by Ms. Vacarro, her mother and/or her counsel to shake Mr. Hill down.”
Aaron Rodgers’ season started almost exactly how he hoped during its 34-32 win over the New York Jets on Sunday, passing for four touchdowns. Now imagine what the Steelers quarterback could do with Hill at his disposal, as well.
Rodgers doesn’t have a set secondary option, with the role behind DK Metcalf consisting of Calvin Austin III and his pack of tight ends. If things don’t start to look up for the Miami Dolphins, 33-8 losers to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, the Steelers could become a real option for one of the game’s fastest wideouts.
“There’s already chatter, in the aftermath of Sunday’s win over the Jets, that the all-in Steelers could go even more all-in by making a move for (Tyreek) Hill,” Florio wrote on Monday. “Yes, Pittsburgh already has receiver DK Metcalf, who’s making $30 million per year on a five-year deal. But the Steelers don’t have a clear cut No. 2. Hill would be 1b (if not, at times, 1a) to Metcalf.”
There’s a large monetary reason why keeping Hill wouldn’t do the Dolphins much good.
“Although Hill is signed through 2026, he’s due to make $36 million next year — with a cap number of $51.89 million,” Florio said. “It’s highly unlikely he’ll be back after 2025. So if the ship continues to sink, Hill becomes an asset that can be flipped into a draft pick.”
Florio believes Hill’s former team, the Kansas City Chiefs, is also a viable landing spot if he gets shipped from South Beach.
The Chiefs currently have the best odds to land Hill at +300. The Steelers are second at +500, followed by the Las Vegas Raiders (+900).
