Miami Dolphins receiver Tyreek Hill makes his long awaited return to Arrowhead on Saturday night when his team faces the Kansas City Chiefs in the wild-card round.
Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was asked how he expects Hill to be received by the loud fanbase at Arrowhead, and he gave his honest take.
“I expect K.C. to give him nothing but love, until he’s putting up a peace sign or something like that. Then he might hear a few boos,” Kelce said.
Kelce went on to explain how the Kansas City community will always appreciate Hill for all the work he did off the field while he was on the Chiefs.
Travis Kelce says he expects #ChiefsKingdom to give Tyreek Hill, “Nothing but love” in his first game back at Arrowhead Stadium. Hill joked that Kelce hasn’t texted him back and that he’s “too big time” now that he’s dating Taylor Swift. 😂 #finsup #NFL #nflplayoffs #MIAvsKC pic.twitter.com/ktcLHR4Mbf

Hill has infamously become known for his elaborate celebrations on the field. He was fined back in October for flashing a peace sign vs. the Giants, and later initiated a roller coaster celebration with some of his teammates in December.
Hill spoke about his former teammate Kelce in his media availability on Thursday—admitting that he texted Kelce ahead of this weekend’s matchup, but he hasn’t heard back from him.
“He’s probably still on his Taylor Swift thing,” Hill joked. “Those guys are too famous for me now I guess.”
