Tyreek Hill being traded from KC to Miami was one of the biggest stories of the NFL offseason. The 28-year old receiver has proven himself to be still amongst the leagueโ€™s best with 100 catches for 1,400 yards thus far in 2022. The Chiefs, meanwhile have managed quite well without Hill as they currently boast the #1 scoring offense in the NFL.

While some wounds from the trade remain open, Tyreek Hill (who recently appeared on Shannon Sharpeโ€™s โ€œClub Shay Shayโ€ Podcast) went into further detail on why he decided he needed out of Kansas City.

โ€œI love playing ball and I love being by the team. There would be some games where. I would get two targets, three targets.โ€ Hill said. โ€œI got to get out of (KC).โ€
