Chiefs' Tyreek Hill: Spotted running routes
by RotoWire Staff
(17 mins ago) Hill (shoulder), who is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions, was spotted running routes on the field during pregame warmups, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
Now three weeks removed from suffering a collarbone injury in the Chiefs' season-opening win over the Jaguars, Hill seems to be making positive progress in his recovery. The Chiefs intend to re-evaluate him Monday, at which time the team should have a better idea regarding his potential to play Week 5 against the Colts.
Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter
Chiefs’ WR Tyreek Hill inactive this week, not expected to be active next week and is expected to undergo imaging tests on shoulder this week to determine how much longer he’ll be out, per sources. Could be about two weeks away but unbeaten Chiefs will not rush him.
You’re reading into this.Weird. Schefter just reported that Tyreek isn't gonna be active next week either and is getting more imaging tests done on his shoulder.
Pregame route running must not have went well, or meant anything.
Edit: I see he also said he could be 2 weeks away but they won't rush it.
Hill has made steady progress in his recovery from a broken collarbone and will undergo imaging tests this week to determine when he can resume playing. A Week 6 return would seem to be a distinct possibility
Really need him next week but I'll take week 6This supports both reports:
Agreed. I think week 5 is still obviously out, but this is great news for maybe week 6, definitely week 7.
I would have used the dancing pickle, as it's closer to how I feel, but I think that has connotations I don't know about.
Likely still a bit away from him starting again, but this is the news I've been waiting for -- tangible progress.
We'll see if it's a limited practice or if he's in full pads and taking contact.

Looks like a guy ready to go this week to me.....
He ain't playing this week.Looks like a guy ready to go this week to me.....
Welcome to the ignore list. You're following me around a little to much lol. Please put me on ignore too. Thanks.He ain't playing this week.
Because I quoted the most recent post in the most recent thread? lol.Welcome to the ignore list. You're following me around a little to much lol. Please put me on ignore too. Thanks.
So...does the dancing pickle mean something else aside from being a happy dance?
KC sportscaster Harold Kun tz' Twitter feed has some other videos of Hill's workout today. Besides the cone work, he was jogging and catching lobs today.They have to be confident he can take a hit. I don't think we'll know that until later this week. This isn't a muscle strain. He's either ready or he's not
Can you really look at that little guy and not smile?So...does the dancing pickle mean something else aside from being a happy dance?
Why a pickle and not the banana? Why a food item at all? What am I missing?
Maybe it is an under ripe banana.Why a pickle and not the banana?
What are we talking about again?Can you really look at that little guy and not smile?
I can't.
Not at all. I just have a feeling it has alternate connotations I don't know about.Can you really look at that little guy and not smile?
I can't.

He's gotta prove thatSo question for the group: if he’s active on Sunday do you roll him out or stick with Robinson?
My concern is they trot him out there as a decoy.
If he's playing, it's to play and be a factor .So question for the group: if he’s active on Sunday do you roll him out or stick with Robinson?

all good points. When does the injury tag for Sunday come out? Think he is listed as doubtful right now?I have to think that if he's active, he won't be a decoy;
- they're currently 4-0; so it's not like they're in a bad place where they simply need him to be on the field doing nothing
- their offense isn't exactly hurting (last week withstanding) by him not being there
- they're playing Indy... not exactly a formidable foe
- their ultimate goal of a SB is GREATLY helped by a healthy Hill; I don't see them trotting him out before he's healthy enough to be out there and potentially get him injured for when they need him most.
Again, this is all just my thinking and I have no inside info to back this up.

Good strong take, but I've seen way too many times where a guy coming back from injury is used sparingly to get his sea legs back, is used but rusty, or is mostly decoying to make me automatically think this take, as opposed to @4th&inches's take (which I happen to agree with), is the most probable.If he's playing, it's to play and be a factor .
And ShadyIf he plays I will start him along with
Watkins, Hardman, and Kelce
And I will pray I don't suffer a week like I did last week!
I feel like the fact it's upper body rather than lower reduces the "decoy factor". If it was something affecting his mobility / ability to get open being a decoy would make more sense. If he gets open are they just not going to throw the ball to him? Doubtful.Good strong take, but I've seen way too many times where a guy coming back from injury is used sparingly to get his sea legs back, is used but rusty, or is mostly decoying to make me automatically think this take, as opposed to @4th&inches's take (which I happen to agree with), is the most probable.
Yep, maybe Shady too. Right now I am planning to start Gordon and Conner, but could easily see me changing one out for Shady!And Shady
It's a pretty unique injury. I can't imagine 2 more weeks will change much, outside of the pain factor.Dr Chao still projecting week 7 return at earliest fwiw... Decoy us not in play here.. he can either take a hit or he can't.... This isn't a muscle strain
Per Rotoworld:
Coach Andy Reid confirmed that Tyreek Hill (clavicle) won't suit up Sunday night against the Colts.
Hill is getting close to a return, but it won't be this week. Demarcus Robinson and Mecole Hardman will continue to work as the offense's outside WRs with Sammy Watkins taking most of the snaps in the slot. They have a low-key difficult matchup against a Colts defense that allowed the fewest PPR per game to the WR position in 2018 and ranks 12th in 2019. Of course, matchups don't matter all that much when your QB is capable of making nearly any throw on the field.
