When all was said and done, the reunion between the Kansas City Chiefs and now-Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill in Frankfurt, Germany ended with a 21-14 victory for the Chiefs.
Chiefs fans watching the game loved that, as it gave them an opportunity to call out Hill, who finished the game with 8 catches, 69 yards, and 1 fumble.
“Tyreek Hill gets the Chiefs game ball today!! Thank you for talking all that s**t for nothing dawg,” one user on Twitter, which was recently rebranded to X, wrote.

Chiefs Defense Stakes No. 1 Claim vs. Dolphins
In a low-scoring game and with the No. 1 seed in the AFC on the line, the Chiefs’ defense staked their claim as the best defense in the NFL in Week 9.
Against the Dolphins — who were the No. 1 scoring offense in the NFL heading into the week — Kansas City allowed just 14 points. It was the seventh time this season that the Chiefs’ defense has held an opponent to 20 or fewer points in a game.
The key play of the gem defensively for Kansas City was Tyreek Hill’s fumble. The play happened on 2nd & 6 just before halftime when Chiefs cornerback Trent McDuffie stripped the ball out of Tyreek’s hands, safety Mike Edwards picked up the fumble and lateraled it to safety Bryan Cook, and Cook returned it for a 59-yard touchdown.
That gave Kansas City a 21-0 lead at halftime, and that lead proved to be enough for the Chiefs to win the game and become the clear-cut No. 1 seed in the AFC.
#Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa throws a screen pass WR Tyreek Hill, who fumbles it, it’s recovered by Chiefs S Mike Edwards, who then laterals it to S Bryan Cook, and he returns it for a 59-yard TD! PAT is good.
As for Kansas City’s offense — they did just enough to help the team win in Week 9.
Quarterback Patrick Mahomes completed 20-of-30 pass attempts for 185 yards and 2 touchdowns. He also lost a fumble and was sacked twice.
The leading receiver for the Chiefs was tight end Noah Gray, who caught 3-of-3 targets for 34 yards. The leading rusher was Isiah Pacheco, who had 16 rushing attempts for 66 yards.
