The Dallas Cowboys and Kansas City Chiefs have been pegged as the top potential trade suitors for a superstar wide receiver whose exit from his current team seems inevitable.

The Dallas Cowboys and Kansas City Chiefs have a problem in common. Three games into the season, both teams have issues at wide receiver.
The Cowboys are set to be without CeeDee Lamb for multiple games after he came down with a high-ankle sprain in Week 3, an injury that could keep him out as much as four to six weeks.
In Kansas City, the Chiefs won't have Rashee Rice until Week 7 due to a suspension and Xavier Worthy has missed the last two games due to injury, although he appears to be on track to return in Week 4.
Even still, Worthy may not be 100% the rest of the way, as he's playing through a torn labrum.
With all of that in mind, Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox thinks the Cowboys and Chiefs are the top possible suitors for a trade with the Miami Dolphins for superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill.
Knox thinks Hill could fetch a conditional 2026 third-rounder for Miami.
The caveat with Hill is the fact that the NFL is investigating him for domestic violence allegations made by Hill's ex-wife, Keeta Vaccaro, as reported by TMZ. Any trade package would likely be conditional, based on his availability for the rest of this season.
A team would have to be confident that the NFL won't suspend Hill in-season, but the five-time first-team All-Pro continues to be a difference maker.
Potential Suitors: Dallas Cowboys, Kansas City Chiefs
As Knox points out, the NFL is currently investigating Hill after recent allegations of domestic violence from his ex-wife. That leaves open the possibility that Hill could be suspended at some point down the road, which could lead to teams balking at a possible trade for him.
That said, there remains a realistic chance the Dolphins will move Hill if teams are open to acquiring him.
After all, Hill said he wanted out of Miami at the end of last season before walking that comments back, and with the Dolphins seemingly going nowhere following an 0-3 start, they would be wise to get something for him instead of dealing with a disgruntled Hill for the remainder of the season.
The Chiefs are more likely to make a move for Hill considering their question marks at the wide receiver position and Super Bowl aspirations.
The Cowboys, on the other hand, will be fine once Lamb comes back and adding Hill could create quite the volatile situation if he or George Pickens don't get the amount of targets they want.
Not to mention, making a trade for Hill is the kind of deal a team makes when it is a player away and the Cowboys are not in that position.
