Chiefs are trading six-time Pro-Bowl WR Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins for five draft picks: a 2022 1st-round pick (No. 29), a 2nd-round pick (No. 50) and a 4th-round pick, as well as 4th- and 6th-round picks in the 2023 draft, sources tell ESPN.

Look at lamar...wanting money like Watson when Cleveland was the only team stupid enough to make that deal. These athletes used to get some basic business classes in college. What happened?
They don't care, it's a I want mine mentality. Another guy gets it and so should they. [Reply]

If they wanna max their earnings, that's fine. I never have a quibble with it, don't blame them at all.
But if you do that, be honest about it. That's what you did, no one cares, just move on.
They don't have to live off of it for life. That's just silly. They may not be able to earn as much doing something else but to insinuate their days of making money are over because they aren't in the NFL is a little ridiculous.
Having said that, I have no problems with them chasing the bag. [Reply]
Can't wait for Tyreek Hill's trademark ball hits his hands tipped in the air for an interception and Sneed runs it back throwing up the peace sign for a pick six. [Reply]
More power to him. He'll be 31, about to turn 32, at that point and made a shit ton of money. You can tell by the way he plays the game he doesnt enjoy being hit because the sideline is the first place he looks to run. So might as well go out healthy. Of course, the way his contract is structured, he might be retiring after the 2024 season unless he wants to sign another contract should he get released. [Reply]
