Tyreek Hill admits he thought Patrick Mahomes was trash when they first played together
Tyreek Hill and Patrick Mahomes have grown into one of the best combinations in the NFL, and it did not always go that way for the two of them.
When Tyreek Hill was asked about his first impressions with his quarterback he was very upfront. He stated he thought Mahomes was trash.
“I thought he was trash,” Hill said, “I ain’t gonna cap. I ain’t gonna cap. I ain’t even gonna cap, man. When he first got there I was like, this is who y’all drafted right here? This is who y’all drafted? Hey but look, he proved me into a whole complete, I don’t know. That second year, like his quarterback mechanics were different. It was like he was spending more time with his quarterback coach, spending more time with Coach Reid, like learning the offense. Dude was like different.”
Hill feels a lot different now, but this is kind of cool.
