Add another award to Chiefs rookie Tyreek Hill’s rapidly-expanding award coffers.
On Wednesday, Hill was named AFC special teams player of the week for the third time, matching former Chief Tamarick Vanover as the only rookie to win an AFC player of the week award three times.
Hill broke a 95-yard touchdown on a punt return in the third quarter of the Chiefs’ 37-27 win over San Diego on Sunday, yet another play that made his coach, Andy Reid, shake his head.
“I look at that, and he’d get a speeding ticket in a school zone, he’s going 22 mph — that’s pretty good,” Reid said of Hill, who reached that speed on a free-kick touchdown return against Denver in November.
