Chiefs fall from No. 1 seed with last-second loss to Bengals
The Chiefs lost in Cincinnati on a last-second field goal Sunday that knocked Kansas City out of the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoff raceJANUARY 3, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Quiet game despite 10 targets Hill caught six of 10 targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Bengals. He added two yards on his lone rushing attempt.
Impact After totaling only 19 yards in his return from the reserve/COVID-19 list last week, Hill led the Chiefs in targets but didn't make much of his opportunities. He almost hauled in a deep pass just before halftime, but Bengals safety Vonn Bell knocked the ball out of Hill's hands. The speedster will look to get back on track before the playoffs with a bounce-back performance in the season finale against Denver.

With AFC West title in tow, Chiefs look toward bigger things
The Kansas City Chiefs will never take for granted winning their division, which they’ve now done six straight timesDECEMBER 27, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Quiet day in win Hill caught two passes for 19 yards on two targets against Pittsburgh on Sunday.
Impact It's possible that Hill's inability to practice this week (illness) left him with a decreased presence in the game plan, though the ease with which the Chiefs won (36-10) might have also played a role. The Chiefs put the Steelers away easily even without using Hill, but to beat the Bengals in Week 17 the Chiefs will likely need to reappoint Hill as their workhorse receiver. With that, a return to high-level fantasy production for Hill becomes more likely than not.
