Chiefs’ Tyreek Hill wins another award, draws comparison to another star receiver

Add another football award for Chiefs rookie Tyreek Hill.

On Wednesday, Hill was chosen AFC special teams player of the week for the third time, matching former Chief Tamarick Vanover as the only rookie to that honor three times.

Hill broke free for a 95-yard punt-return touchdown 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.
