Chiefs' Sneed claps back at Tyreek: 'I take notes on what he said'
Kansas City Chiefs cornerback L'Jarius Sneed can't wait to face Tyreek Hill and prove the Miami Dolphins wide receiver wrong this season.
"Tyreek (has) been talking a lot of trash, himself, this year. He talking about coming back to the Arrowhead. We (are) going to show him, though, when he gets there," Sneed said Tuesday, according to Coral Smith of NFL.com.
Sneed's comments come weeks after Hill said he'll be the Chiefs' "worst enemy" when they face off at Arrowhead Stadium in 2023. Kansas City traded Hill, its top wide receiver for years, to the Dolphins during the 2022 offseason as part of a blockbuster deal. The 29-year-old's return to Arrowhead is one of the most anticipated games of the season.
"I don't really get into it, but I take notes on what he said. I see it," Sneed added. "I (have) been on the internet, and I see what he's saying. We'll see once he comes to the Arrowhead."
Hill, a seven-time Pro Bowler, racked up 6,630 receiving yards and 56 touchdown catches in 91 appearances with the Chiefs while helping Kansas City win Super Bowl LIV. He had an immediate impact on the Dolphins last year, catching 119 passes for 1,710 yards and seven TDs.
Sneed is entering his fourth season with Kansas City. The 26-year-old posted his best NFL campaign in 2022, setting career highs with 108 tackles, 11 pass breakups, and 3.5 sacks to go along with three interceptions. He played every defensive snap of the Chiefs' Super Bowl victory over the Philadelphia Eagles in February.
NFL fans won't have to wait much longer to find out when Hill will return to Kansas City. The league is announcing its full schedule for the 2023 regular season on Thursday.
