(AP Photo/Emilee Chinn)APCould Tyreek Hill be heading back to Kansas City?That question picked up steam Monday after ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter appeared on “The Pat McAfee Show” and discussed Hill’s future. Schefter said Hill is talking with teams and could have a new home soon, with the Kansas City Chiefs viewed by many as a logical landing spot. The discussion came as the Chiefs deal with uncertainty around wide receiver Tyquan Thornton, who suffered a serious ankle injury. Schefter said the injury will need further evaluation before the team knows how long Thornton could be sidelined. That has increased speculation about whether Kansas City could add another proven playmaker. Hill remains one of the most recognizable players in franchise history. He helped the Chiefs become a Super Bowl contender before continuing his career elsewhere. According to Schefter, Hill is continuing to work his way back into football shape and could be ready to sign with a team in the near future. A return to Kansas City would bring Hill back to quarterback Patrick Mahomes and coach Andy Reid. While no deal has been announced, Schefter suggested a Chiefs reunion makes plenty of sense for both sides. Other teams are also believed to have interest. For now, Chiefs fans will have to wait and see. But if Schefter’s reporting is correct, one of the NFL’s most talked-about storylines may not remain unresolved for much longer.
