Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill will be on the sideline for a month or two longer, but Kansas City’s Pro Bowl deep danger averted being put on injured reserve.
According to reports, Hill won’t be permitted to do soccer activities for approximately a month and could miss. Wednesday official word from Chiefs coach Rick Burkholder is expected.
Hill was slammed to the turf close to the sideline by Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey in the first quarter Sunday and did not return into the Chiefs’ 40-26 victory.
Burkholder said following the match that Hill had been under the maintenance of an ortho-trauma group in Jacksonville and added the group would provide a comprehensive update on his condition at”a day or two.”
The 25-year-old Hill signed to a $54m contract extension on Friday.
In the lack of Hill, Sammy Watkins emerged as the lead option and grabbed two passes for 198 yards and 3 touchdowns against the Jaguars.
