Dolphins to let Tyreek Hill determine status vs. Jets, sources say - ESPN

The Miami Dolphins plan to allow Pro Bowl wide receiver Tyreek Hill to determine whether he can play Sunday against the New York Jets, sources told ESPN.

The Dolphins are unsure whether Hill or rookie running back De'Von Achane, who both are listed as questionable, will be available against New York and don't plan to decide on either player until they see how they feel Sunday morning, according to sources.

Hill has plenty on the line Sunday, as he is challenging to become the first wide receiver in NFL history to finish a regular season with 2,000 receiving yards.

The Dolphins (9-4) and Jets (5-8) also squared off in the 2022 offseason, when the AFC East rivals both made trade offers to the Kansas City Chiefs for Hill, the one available player capable of helping each franchise and their respective quarterbacks.

The Jets offered the Chiefs the No. 35 overall pick in the 2022 draft, the No. 38 pick and the No. 69 pick in exchange for Hill and a fourth-round pick. But the Chiefs ended up accepting the offer from the Dolphins, who sent Kansas City the No. 29 overall pick in 2022, the No. 50 pick, a fourth-round pick in 2022 and two picks in 2023 — a fourth-rounder and a sixth-rounder.

The Chiefs used those draft picks on cornerback Trent McDuffie, wide receivers Skyy Moore and Rashee Rice, offensive tackle Darian Kinnard and defensive tackle Keondre Coburn.

Kansas City initially attempted to re-sign Hill in 2022 shortly after
