After falling in Super Bowl LIX to the Philadelphia Eagles, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are now preparing for the 2025 NFL season.

The Chiefs began organized team activities (OTAs) on May 27, with the sessions set to conclude on Friday. During OTAs, former Kansas City punter Dustin Colquitt signed a one-day contract to retire as a member of the Chiefs.

However, on Wednesday, less than a week later, Kansas City announced another retirement, as assistant special teams coach Andy Hill is calling it a career as well.

"Thank you for helping us make our special teams extra special, Coach Hill," the Chiefs wrote on Instagram. "Congratulations on a well-earned retirement!"

Hill spent five seasons with the Chiefs as the assistant special teams coach, joining the team after their 2019-20 season. He also helped Kansas City win two Super Bowls and make four appearances. The Chiefs went 66-18 in games with Hill.

Before his tenure in the NFL, Hill served 24 years as a member of the Missouri Tigers coaching staff. He worked numerous positions, including quarterback coach and associate head coach. Hill is also a member of the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame.

Although they will be missing their assistant special teams coach, Andy Reid and the Chiefs will be returning many key stars, including Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce, who was contemplating retirement following the Super Bowl loss.

Kansas City will begin mandatory camp on Tuesday. They kick off their 2025 NFL season on Friday, September 5, facing the Los Angeles Chargers in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
