Andy Reid shares view on Tyreek Hill’s first season with Dolphins

The coach is happy for his former wideout.

Nearly a full year ago, the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs completed a massive trade that brought star wide receiver Tyreek Hill to South Florida for five draft picks.

To sweeten the deal for the wideout, Miami gave Hill a four-year, $120 million extension that begins in 2023.

In his first year with the Dolphins, Hill set the franchise records for both receiving yards and receptions, and, prior to Tua Tagovailoa’s concussion saga, he was on pace to break Calvin Johnson’s NFL yardage record.

Without Hill in Kansas City, head coach Andy Reid’s team still made it to the Super Bowl due to some superb performances from Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones and others.

At Media Day, Reid was asked about his former wide receiver during his first season with Miami, and the coach expressed his happiness for him.

Hill was pretty vocal about wanting to leave the Chiefs due to money and opportunities, so it wouldn’t be too surprising if Reid was a little bitter about the way their time together ended, but the coach is nothing but professional and cordial.

The numbers and money are nice, but winning another Super Bowl would probably feel pretty great for Hill in aqua and orange.

Patrick Mahomes takes flight for Chiefs touchdown

Another highlight play courtesy of Patrick Mahomes

It was only a 3-yard run but the play will be on highlights for the rest of the season.

Patrick Mahomes had the Chiefs deep in Bengals territory and he was not going to be denied the end zone.

Watch as Mahomes takes to the air and breaks the plane of the end zone before losing the football.

The score gave the Chiefs a 24-17 lead on Sunday and was their second TD in the third quarter.
