Tyreek Hill Has a Monster First Quarter

Tyreek Hill’s game-line was insane, but his stats in the first quarter alone are something to marvel over. Hill ended the first period with 203 yards on 7 catches and two scores.

Those are numbers that players don’t put up in a single game. Hill was snagging big grabs all across the field. On the first play for the Chiefs’ offense, Mahomes and Hill connected on a 34 yard pass downfield.

Later, Hill would grab a 75 yard touchdown pass after taking the hat off the defense.

The Bucs had no answer for Hill, and the Chiefs quickly took over, leading 17-0 in the first quarter. The lead proved too big to overcome as the Chiefs would win 27-24.

Hill Adds Iconic Celebration to Cap Big Night

Tyreek Hill also paid homage to Shannon Sharpe with an iconic phone-call celebration.

Hill also made a little history with his performance. Hill became the third player in NFL history to rack up 200 receiving yards in a single quarter, and is the only one to do it with at least seven catches.

Tyreek Hill and the Chiefs continue to roll as they now sit at 10-1 for the season. Mahomes looks like he’s winning another MVP award, and the Chiefs are looking good to repeat as Super Bowl champs.
