KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Tyreek Hill walked off the field holding his wrist Sunday and Kansas City Chiefs fans held their collective breath, only to exhale when their star wide receiver checked back into the game.
They held it again when Hill hobbled to the sideline with a foot injury.
But in a back-and-forth game with significant playoff ramifications, there was no way Hill was going to stay there.
He limped back into the game in time to catch Patrick Mahomes' 40-yard heave on fourth-and-long to keep the Chiefs alive, then caught three more passes in overtime — all for first downs — to set the Chiefs up for the eventual winning field goal against Baltimore.
