The Miami Dolphins have made several changes to their roster this offseason, especially at the receiver position, where they’ve replaced Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine with Jalen Tolbert, Tutu Atwell and Terrace Marshall Jr.
While the room still has some capable targets for new quarterback Malik Willis to throw to in 2026, they could still use help at the position.

With that, Bleacher Report’s Moe Moton identified the Dolphins as a top landing spot for San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk.
“The Dolphins can’t roll out a receiver room of backups and rookies and expect Malik Willis to grow as a first-time full-time starter. He needs help in the passing game,” Moton said. “Aiyuk would be the clear-cut No. 1 option in Miami’s aerial attack. Also working in his favor, he’s familiar with offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik, who was the 49ers’ passing game specialist and coordinator from 2021 to 2022.”
The 28-year-old has caught 294 passes for 4,305 yards and 25 touchdowns in five years before tearing his ACL midway through the 2024 season. San Francisco stripped Aiyuk of his guarantees after several issues during his rehab last year.
If he’s healthy, the Dolphins could get a top wide receiver for cheap, but there is a risk.
