Kansas City Chiefs: Winners and losers from week one victory vs Jaguars
LOSER: TYREEK HILL
This is more of the situation and not the player himself.
After signing an extension with the Chiefs on Friday, Tyreek Hill was knocked out of the game early due to an injury. He only recorded two catches for 16 yards against Jalen Ramsey before then and actually got injured after grabbing one of those two passes when falling out of bounds.
This is obviously bad for the Chiefs, as Hill is their WR1 and just signed a new deal and he only played one quarter on Sunday. While Watkins did just fine in Hill’s absence, that won’t be the case every week.
#Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill, who is currently in the hospital, is expected to miss a few weeks with his shoulder injury, source said. No surgery required.

LOSER: MECOLE HARDMAN
Where was Mecole Hardman on Sunday? One dropped pass was the only time we heard Hardman’s name uttered on offense during the victory. He had two kick returns, but after Hill left the game, one had to be hoping Hardman would have more of a chance to show what he could do. That wasn’t the case.
