Confirmed, per source, Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill had a posterior SC (sternoclavicular) dislocation which was successfully reduced in the hospital. No surgery required. He will stay overnight.

The second replay showed that while Sammy pushed Ramsey off a bit, Ramsey had a good hold of his jersey. So I think under a review this would not have been changed. [Reply]

That would be cool. Ive always thought it would be badass if a player (in any sport) came out as gay while giving their MVP acceptance speech. [Reply]

Posterior dislocation of the sterno‐clavicular (SC) joint is a rare injury in athletes. It normally occurs in high collision sports such as American football or rugby. Acute posterior dislocations of the SC joint can be life‐threatening as the posteriorly displaced clavicle can cause damage to vital vascular and respiratory structures such as the aortic arch, the carotid and subclavian arteries, and the trachea. The potential severity of a posterior SC joint dislocation provides multiple challenges for clinicians involved in the emergency care and treatment of this condition. Integration of clinical examination observations, rapid critical thinking, and appropriate diagnostic imaging are often required to provide the best management and outcome for the injured athlete. The criterion for return‐to‐play and participation in collision sports after suffering a posterior dislocation of the SC joint are unclear due to the rarity of this injury. The purpose of this case report is to describe the management, from the initial on‐field evaluation through the return‐to‐sport, of a collegiate Division I football player following a traumatic sports‐related posterior SC joint dislocation. The rehabilitation process and the progression to return to participation are also presented and briefly discussed.
This might be a good thing in the end. Hill will come back fresh at midseason. Our offensive talent is so overpowering that the workload will just shift to other guys who will be fine. [Reply]

Nothing good about it except thar he is not going to be out longer. [Reply]
I'd like to see him back for the Texans game but he could even be used as a decoy a game or two earlier just running routes to clear out defenses and keep them honest.
He could probably catch one armed-one handed too! [Reply]

Id want him back that soon only if fully healed. Dont want to chance anything. The team had a plan in the offseason to deal with his absense - time to roll with it. [Reply]

Yeah tbh I'm actually looking forward to seeing what Mecole and Robinson can do now as they are likely to be left wide open as defenses try to cover Sammy and Travis :-) . [Reply]
