Report: Chiefs' Tyreek Hill Likely Out for Week 5 with Injury; to Undergo Tests

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill reportedly is unlikely to return from injury until at least Week 6, according to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter:

Hill, 25, has missed the team's past two games after suffering a shoulder injury in the team's 40-26 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1. 

He was working out with the team before Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions, however, and looked good while running routes:

For most teams, the loss of a player with Hill's impact would be difficult to overcome. He had an impressive campaign in 2018, catching 87 passes for 1,479 yards and 12 touchdowns. He added 22 rushes for 151 yards and an additional score.

Few players are more dangerous down the field or in space given his electrifying speed and elusiveness. Hill has established himself as one of the game's most dangerous players.

And yet the Chiefs haven't missed a beat, outscoring opponents 101-64. They're currently second in yards per game (487) and third in points per contest (33.7), while defending MVP leads all quarterbacks in passing yards (1,195) and touchdowns (10). He's currently on pace to throw for 6,373 yards and 53 touchdowns, both of which would surpass his incredible 2018 campaign.

Getting Hill back would make the Chiefs all the more difficult to defend, obviously. But in Travis Kelce, Sammy Watkins, Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson, Mahomes isn't devoid of weapons in the passing game. 

Not many teams could lose a top-five wideout and keep on ticking. But when you have the best quarterback in football—and a pass-heavy scheme perfect for his talents—it's a different story.
