Chiefs' Andy Reid: 'Nothing happening' with Tyreek Hill

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid did not sound too optimistic on Friday when he was asked about the notion of a potential reunion with wide receiver Tyreek Hill in Kansas City.

Hill, after all, finds himself without a team after he was released by the Miami Dolphins on Monday. The eight-time Pro Bowl wide receiver sustained a torn ACL and dislocated knee in a late-September win against the New York Jets.

"I don't even know if Tyreek is healthy right now to do anything," Reid said. "So, I'm sure he's working hard on that part of it, trying to get that all straightened out.

"But yeah, listen, we talk about everything. So there's nothing happening there, but we know what you know - that he's out there and cranking away, trying to get himself back to where he can play, period."

Hill said in a recent stream on Twitch that his recovery is "going good," while adding that he faces one more surgery.

Hill, who turns 32 on March 1, caught 21 passes for 265 yards and one touchdown in four starts this season before his season-ending injury.

He spent four seasons with the Dolphins after thriving in six campaigns with the Chiefs (2016-21). He was a first-team All-Pro in Kansas City on three occasions (two as a receiver, one as a returner) and totaled 479 catches for 6,630 yards with 56 touchdowns in 91 games with the club.

The Chiefs finished 16th in passing yards last season, and have been unable to get consistent production -- or availability -- from young wide receivers Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy.
