Miami Dolphins superstar receiver Tyreek Hill has been one of the biggest stories this week as he reunites with the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday morning, and he made a bold prediction about his intentions to absolutely torch his old team.
NFL Week 9 has a fantastic slate of games. The schedule for Sunday has not one, not two, but four marquee games that football fans are looking forward to. Arguably, the most intriguing of the quartet is a 9:30 AM ET clash in Germany between the top two teams in the AFC, the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs.

Heading into the matchup, there have been some interesting stories about what ended the relationship and his regret for threatening a trade to get the massive contract he was in search of. However, it seems the niceties are now done.
