Despite Facing Patrick Mahomes’ Angry Beatdown, Tyreek Hill Cherishes Earning Respect From the Chiefs QB: “You Can’t Catch the F**king Ball”

Tyreek Hill joined the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016 as his NFL debut team. A couple of years down the line he won a Super Bowl with Patrick Mahomes. The nascent stages of his NFL career honed him as one of the best receivers in the NFL right now. Things haven’t always been sunny at the Kansas City Chiefs though, because, at some point, they had a really rough streak and per Hill, it was a moment of slight test for the Chiefs QB.

Thankfully, Patrick Mahomes was there to keep everyone in check and made sure that the team gave their best performance in the upcoming games. Safe to say, Mahomes is a good leader and his strategies to keep everyone in line worked out. Hill had an anecdote about Mahomes that he shared on the Pivot Podcast, reiterating his respect for his former QB.

Tyreek Hill recalls the “calling out” moment with Patrick Mahomes

Ryan Clark brought up the topic of Patrick Mahomes in the conversation with Tyreek Hill and mentioned how the WR said at one point that Tua Tagovailoa is the most accurate QB he has played with. He also pointed out how accuracy isn’t the only benchmark that is used to judge a QB and wanted to have Tyreek’s take on his past statements. Clark wanted Hill to recall his locker room moments with Mahomes, as the host pointed out how the Chiefs QB might just become the greatest QB in the history of the game.

About Tua, Hill clarified that the Dolphins QB had the best season of his career this year and dubbed him as “fearless.” He elaborated how Tua has the potential to become like Brady or Aaron Rodgers given that he has the right weapons around him. But Mahomes is a different breed of QB, and Hill explained how. There was a time when the Chiefs were on a losing streak and even Travis Kelce was not performing well along with other offensive stars of the then-Chiefs team.

The QB had called out all his best players and individually mentioned how they needed to get back on track for things to look better for the side. Hill mentioned how he was impressed by this as it showed the integrity and responsibility of the QB toward each player.

“This was on a Tuesday I believe; he called the whole offense up. He cussed all of us the f**** out, like me and Pat we go back and forth. But that was the moment right there where he stood on business, and I was like bro I really respect this m***** f***** because he just called out all his f****** weapons,” said Hill recalling the past. He recalled Mahomes saying to him, “Reek you think you so f****** fast, but can’t catch the f****** ball”. Mahomes’ words fuelled Tyreek Hill to be better.

While this represents one aspect of their relationship as teammates, Tyreek Hill had once indicated a banter between the two and the fun bond they share, making a mention of TE Travis Kelce in its reference as well.

Tyreek Hill is Pat Mahomes’ “side chick”

Tyreek Hill leaving the Kansas City Chiefs might have been because he was never Mahomes’ No. 1 guy on the offensive side of the Chiefs. Hill once commented about the same and made a joke on RGIII’s podcast about always coming second on Pat’s list. Safe to say he might have felt less appreciated with Kelce being closer to Mahomes and them sharing a fairly more dependable bond than Hill did with him.

“Pat had Kelce, and I was kinda jealous,” Hill said on the RG3 and The Ones podcast. “I was hurt. Patrick, you ain’t never invite me over to your house like you did Kelce. You always invited Kelce. That’s why we’re here where we at now,” and added, “I never been anybody’s side chick before.”

While Patrick Mahomes and Tyreek Hill are not together in a team anymore, Tua Tagovailoa made sure that Hill is not treated like a “side chick” in Miami Dolphins, keeping him on top of his offensive side.
