Tyreek Hill has been one of the flashiest players in the NFL since he arrived in Kansas City. Known as the “Cheetah”, his speed is unparalleled, leaving defenders in the dust and scoring touchdowns with ease. In the 2021 season, he led the AFC in receptions with a career-best 111 and scored in all three of the Chiefs’ playoff games.
In 2022, Hill was far from satisfied with the sum of money the Chiefs proposed as a guarantee. The Dolphins presented him with a contract extension that included a whopping $72 million in guaranteed money, something he simply couldn’t turn down! Consequently, on March 18th, 2022, the Chiefs traded Hill to the Dolphins in exchange for several future draft picks. And now he is ready to go head-to-head with the team that traded him.
