Maybe Tyreek Hill was still hoping to come back to the Chiefs

Ex-Chiefs receiver, Tyreek Hill, had something to express after DeAndre Hopkins trade to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Since this post on X (formerly Twitter) has been made hours after the trade, fans around the NFL assumed that this was targeted to the breaking news reported by Ian Rapoport.

Tyreek Hill has been involved in trade rumors and a reunion with his former team since Tua Tagovailoa suffered another concussion.

But it appears that the Chiefs have preferred going into Hopkins direction. The cost of such a trade might have dampened down their spirits. The Chiefs would have had to send more than a conditional 4th round pick to the Dolphins in exchange of Tyreek Hill’s services.

Additionally, the $31.2 million in salary cap hit was probably another issue for the Chiefs.

The Chiefs are the lone team still unbeaten in the NFL and have made a splash with this acquisition, strengthen their offense and their pretention for another Super Bowl run.
