It remains to be seen whether the Kansas City Chiefs will miss the services of All-Pro wide receiver Tyreek Hill.
The former West Alabama standout was traded to the Miami Dolphins this offseason in exchange for five draft picks.
Hill also signed a four-year, $120 million deal with the Dolphins, making him the highest-paid wideout in the league.
He was the primary option of the Chiefs’ pass offense and his speed has helped them either put up big leads or quickly overhaul deficits.
With Hill not with the team anymore, receivers like Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Mecole Hardman, and JuJu Smith-Schuster will try to fill the void that “Cheetah” left.
But just when everyone thought there won’t be issues regarding the trade, Hill made an interesting comparison between Patrick Mahomes and Tua Tagovailoa.
He declared that Tagovailoa is a more accurate passer than Mahomes.
Hill said on the first episode of his “It Needed To Be Said” podcast, “He’s accurate. He can throw the deep ball, and he actually goes through his reads, where people are like on Twitter like saying, ‘Oh, he doesn’t go through his reads.’ Man, this dude is that dude.”
He added, “Obviously like I’m gonna go with 15 as the strongest arm but as far as accuracy-wise, I’m going with Tua all day,”
While that’s high praise for Tagovailoa, how did Mahomes take his words?
Was Patrick Mahomes surprised by any of Tyreek Hill's recent podcast comments?
"…I'm sure it had something to do with trying to get his podcast some stuff and get it rolling…"

Mahomes Might Have Known Hill’s Intention
The former league MVP said in a recent press conference, “I’m sure it had something to do with trying to get his podcast some stuff and get it rolling.”
With shots fired, only time will tell if the Chiefs and the Dolphins will face off in the postseason.
If they do, there might be fireworks all game long.
