The Kansas City Chiefs will be without Tyreek Hill for a few weeks due to a shoulder injury that will not require surgery, according to ProFootballTalk.

Hill injured his shoulder early in the Chiefs' 40-26 Week 1 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Cornerback Jalen Ramsey hit Hill out of bounds in the first half, and the wide receiver left the game. For the day, Hill finished with two receptions for 16 yards and one rush for five yards.

After the game, Chiefs head athletic trainer Rick Burkholder updated reporters on Hill's status, as he was transported to the hospital. Per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport:

“Tyreek Hill had an injury in the game where he landed on his shoulder. He had a sternal clavicular joint injury which is where your clavicle comes into your sternum. Those can be injured coming out the front, up top or in the back. It goes posteriorly or back it becomes a medical issue for us so that we worry that there’s more problems.”

Burkholder noted that he took Hill to the hospital for precautionary reasons, stating that “he’s being treated there to reduce the dislocation or the injury.” It's unknown exactly how much time Hill will miss with the injury, but it's not considered too serious.

Luckily, the Chiefs boast one of the NFL's best receiving corps. The second option, Sammy Watkins, looked like the first against Jacksonville as he compiled 198 yards and three touchdowns on nine receptions. Rookie Mecole Hardman, hailing from Georgia, has the speed to replicate plays that Andy Reid directs to Hill.
