Former Chiefs QB Alex joined the Rich Eisen Show on Wednesday to discuss a myriad of topics ranging from Tom Bradyโ€™s unretirment to the Chiefs trading Tyreek Hill last week.

โ€œFlat out, youโ€™re not going to replace him,โ€ Smith told Eisen. โ€œThere is literally only one Tyreek Hill in the whole NFL. He is that kind of difference-maker. I was fortunate enough to play my last two years there in Kansas City with him. Honestly, when heโ€™s on the field, defenses play differently. He opens up so many other players around him because everybody is so fearful.โ€

Smith retired after the 2020 season after returning from a serious leg injury that he suffered in 2018. Smith quarterbacked the Chiefs from 2013-2018 and brought the franchise its first playoff win 22 years back in 2016.
