Goodbye Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, hello sunshine, a slightly more uncertain sporting future… and $72.2 million guaranteed over the next three seasons.
In a rather cheerful press conference, the receiver conceded that leaving the Chiefs was not easy. But he was also honest regarding what helped decide him.

“I knew I was going to choose Miami no matter what. Like I said, I’m here all the time. It’s at my house. »
Hill has indeed recalled that he was already training in Miami during the offseason, and that he has family in the region.
