Tyreek Hill was traded to the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday to the shock of many in Kansas City and around the NFL. Tyreek spent six years in Kansas City dazzling fans with his explosive plays and over-the-top antics.
While his unique skill set will be missed, the Chiefs are hoping to improve themselves using the five draft picks they received from Miami. Let’s take a look at Tyreek’s five greatest moments in Kansas City.
5. Tyreek! Tyreek! Tyreek!
During Tyreek’s rookie season, the Chiefs faced the Raiders for the division lead on Thursday Night Football. With the Chiefs already ahead 14-3, the entire sold-out Arrowhead Stadium crowd rose to its feet and began to chant “Tyreek! Tyreek! Tyreek!” The ultimate moment of jubilation came as Hill took the punt back 78 yards for a touchdown as the crowd lost its collective mind.
4. Tyreek Goes Off in Tampa
The Chiefs traveled to Tampa Bay on November 29, 2020 with a 9-1 record and something to prove against Brady’s Bucs. Tyreek Hill had the game of his career, hauling in 269 yards receiving (240 in the first half) and 3 touchdowns as the Chiefs held on to beat Tampa 27-24
3. Out-Jumping Two Texan Defenders
Coming back from injury in week six of the 2019 season, Hill immediately made his presence known with this highlight-reel catch against the Texans. The Chiefs would go on to lose this game 31-24 but the team would get back on track in route to a Super Bowl title.
2. He Just Outran the Entire Bills Defense
In one of the most memorable game in playoff history, the Chiefs trailed by three late against Buffalo. With just over a minute to go, Hill took a simple slant over the middle 64-yards for the go-ahead score sending Arrowhead Stadium into a frenzy. As we know, the offensive fireworks were only getting started on this night.
1. Jet Chip WASP
It’s a moment that will live on forever in the hearts of the entire Chiefs Kingdom. Trailing by 10 with seven minutes to go in Super Bowl LIV, the Chiefs needed a big play on 3rd and 15. Do we have time for WASP? Indeed we did.
