Tyreek Hill

Career Stats: 91 games played (73 starts), 479 receptions, 6,630 yards, 56 TD

Over the first six seasons of his career, Tyreek Hill solidified his place in history. The Kansas City Chiefs selected Hill in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft, and as a rookie, he went on to earn All-Pro honors. Hill, who went by the moniker “Cheetah” due to his extraordinary speed, developed a tendency of outrunning even the quickest defenders early in his career. One of the most feared QB/WR combinations in the league was formed in Kansas City when Hill hooked up with quarterback sensation Patrick Mahomes. While playing for the Chiefs, Hill was selected as an All-Pro three times and participated in every Pro Bowl. Prior to the 2022 season, the Miami Dolphins acquired Hill. In place of Mahomes at quarterback, Tua Tagovailoa will be used instead.
