Tyreek Hill

Tyreek Hill may be the most dangerous player on the roster for a few reasons. The first reason is similar to Travis Kelce in that Hill is another player that requires so much attention from opposing defenses.

Hill, also known as “Cheetah”, is the fastest player in the NFL. Having the fastest player in the NFL on your team definitely makes your offense a little more dangerous. Hill has elite speed, which allows him to at times blow right by defenders and create yards of separation. That results in big plays.

Often times, the term “game-breaking speed,” is tossed around and that term describes Tyreek Hill. Usually, with fast receivers, you just think about catching deep passes as mentioned above, but Hill can catch a pitch or a screen pass and can turn it into a ten-yard gain with ease. That is what truly displays his “game-breaking speed” maybe even more than the deep balls.

In addition, even on many plays when he isn’t even the one who makes the reception, Hill still often times deserves a lot of the credit. Hill stretches the defense and makes them defend the entire field, which spreads out the opposing defenders and helps other Chiefs receivers have an easier time getting open.

The last reason why he is so dangerous is because of the importance factor. Hill is still suspended indefinitely and not with the team, so his availability is certainly in question. If Hill is with the team, the Chiefs are the most dangerous offense in the league. Without him they will still be pretty good, but Hill definitely locks the Chiefs in as the best offense in the league.

This is what should terrify the rest of the league about the Tyreek Hill situation is how dangerous the Chiefs offense becomes as soon as Hill is back with the team. In all actuality, this may fall more under “why Hill is one of the most important players for the Chiefs,” but it can be applied to list as well because of how dangerous he makes the offense.
