Kansas City Chiefs’ receiver Tyreek Hill left Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars with an apparent shoulder injury and it now seems he injured his collarbone. He is set to miss 4-6 weeks.
#Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill (sternoclavicular joint injury) is expected to miss 4-6 weeks, sources say. A positive sign: KC does not plan to put him on IR, as of now. He’ll need to be monitored in rehab, and how quickly it progresses will determine if it’s more or less than 6 weeks.

Fantasy Impact
Obviously this isn’t great news for anyone with Hill on their fantasy team. His absence certainly wasn’t felt by Patrick Mahomes or the Chiefs as the offense still managed to drop 40 on the Jaguars, thanks to Mahomes’ three passing touchdowns, all to Sammy Watkins. While I doubt Watkins is available in your league (he’s 91% owned in Yahoo leagues), now is the time to quickly stash Mecole Hardman as he’ll surely see an increased role in the offense with Hill out.
