Tyreek Hill's Chiefs Reunion Gets Major Update

Despite Tyreek Hill's optimism 10 months post-surgery, the star wide receiver faces severe challenges in regaining power in his injured left leg, casting doubt on his return to the NFL in 2026.

Tyreek Hill says the work to come back from his left leg injury is still very much a grind, and he’s not pretending otherwise.

In a video posted to his YouTube channel, the veteran receiver showed himself training while talking through where things stand nearly 10 months after two surgeries. Hill said the injured leg still isn’t giving him what he needs.

“So it’s about 10 months after doing two surgeries,” Hill said. “My left leg is the one that I injured.

I have no power in my left leg, so I’m trying to regain all the power back in my left leg. But it’s one day at a time.”

Hill also said he was told after the injury that he “might not be able to walk again,” though he added that he feels good this far removed from the surgeries. The video included a range of exercises, along with some short running that Hill said he wasn’t supposed to be doing yet.

The update comes after it was reported in May that Hill might not play in 2026 because of the recovery from the dislocated knee and multiple ligament tears he suffered in Week 4 last year. ESPN’s Nate Taylor said the Chiefs are expected to monitor Hill’s recovery, and they are the only team explicitly tied to him at this point.

Hill, 32, entered the league as a fifth-round pick of the Chiefs in 2016. Kansas City signed him to a three-year, $54 million extension in 2019 that included $35.2 million guaranteed.

The Chiefs later traded Hill to the Dolphins during the 2022 offseason. Miami then gave him a four-year, $120 million contract with $72.2 million in guaranteed money.

Heading into the 2024 season, Hill agreed to a reworked three-year, $90 million contract with $65 million in guarantees after he was due base salaries of $19.665 million and $21.835 million over the next two seasons. The Dolphins released him in February 2026 while he was recovering from the significant leg injury.

In 2025, Hill played in four games for Miami and finished with 21 catches on 29 targets for 265 yards and one touchdown.

Royals Fans Need To See This Bobby Witt Jr. Update

Salvador Perez has already tied George Brett with 317 career home runs as a Royal, so every trip to the plate now carries a little extra weight for Kansas City. At the same time, the Royals recent move to add Nate Pearson gives the bullpen another arm to sort through, while the organization continues to monitor the health of several players who matter to the roster picture.

The bigger concern for fans, though, is the latest injury picture around the lineup and infield, with Bobby Witt Jr. still part of the conversation as the club tries to keep its season on track. Add in the fact that Kendry Chourio, Josh Hammond and Angeibel Gomez showed up in the latest FanGraphs top 100, and there is plenty for Royals followers to track beyond the box score as the next wave of updates comes into focus.

Royals Make Another Outfield Move Fans Have Seen Before

Kameron Misner is on the move again, and this one sends a familiar name from Kansas Citys outfield pipeline to Philadelphia for cash considerations. The Phillies optioned Misner to Triple-A Lehigh Valley and cleared a 40-man roster spot by designating Steward Berroa for assignment, a straightforward transaction on paper but one that fits a broader pattern for a player the Royals have already cycled through once.

For Kansas City, the move is another reminder of how quickly outfield depth can turn over, especially with players in their final minor league option year. Misners time in the majors with the Royals was brief, and Berroa now enters a familiar roster squeeze of his own, with the possibility of staying in the organization if he clears waivers and is outrighted to Triple-A.

Royals May Have Finally Found Their Outfield Answer In Brewers Trade

The Royals decision to bring in Isaac Collins and Nick Mears has started to look a lot more interesting as Collins keeps carving out a real role in Kansas Citys outfield mix. What began as a trade addition has turned into something closer to a lineup solution, with Collins giving the club a left-handed bat and a steadier presence in a spot that had been looking for answers.

For Milwaukee, the timing only sharpens the contrast. Right field has been the Brewers weakest position this season, and Collins recent surge has only made it easier to imagine how much he might have helped there. Kansas City, meanwhile, has reason to believe it may have landed not just a useful piece for now, but one it can keep building around for years to come. [Read more 🡒]
