Reid Dismisses Tyreek Hill Reunion Talk: ‘Nothing Happening’

Friday, February 20, 2026 at 5:31 PM

Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid shot down speculation about bringing back former star receiver Tyreek Hill, who was recently cut by Miami. Hill is still recovering from a serious knee injury suffered in September and faces another surgery.

Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid expressed little enthusiasm Friday when questioned about possibly reuniting with former star wide receiver Tyreek Hill.

Hill became available after Miami released him Monday following a devastating knee injury. The veteran receiver, who has made eight Pro Bowl appearances, suffered both a torn ACL and knee dislocation during a late September victory over the New York Jets.

“I don’t even know if Tyreek is healthy right now to do anything,” Reid stated. “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,” Reid continued.

During a recent Twitch streaming session, Hill provided an update on his rehabilitation, saying his recovery is “going good” but acknowledged he still needs one additional surgical procedure.

Before his season-ending injury, the soon-to-be 32-year-old receiver (his birthday is March 1) managed 21 receptions for 265 yards and one touchdown across four games this season.

Hill previously played six successful seasons in Kansas City from 2016-21 before joining Miami for four years. During his Chiefs tenure, he earned first-team All-Pro honors three times – twice as a receiver and once as a return specialist – accumulating 479 catches for 6,630 yards and 56 touchdowns in 91 appearances.

The Chiefs struggled offensively last season, ranking 16th in passing yards, while young receivers Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy have failed to provide reliable production or stay consistently healthy.
