Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill will not be disciplined by the NFL after an investigation into allegations of domestic abuse, clearing him to be available for training camp and the regular season.
Just going to throw this out there right now: I'm leaving personal feelings out of this. That being said, his teammates are not. They're excited to have the wide receiver back. According to Pete Grathoff of the Kansas City Star, tight end Travis Kelce is particularly excited.

Strictly talking football, it makes sense that the Chiefs are excited to have Hill back. He's one of the elite playmakers in the game. Last season he put on a show, racking up 87 receptions for 1,479 yards and 12 touchdown receptions.
That kind of production would've been nearly impossible to replace for Kansas City. Without him, all of a sudden the offense would be in danger of taking a massive step backwards. That doesn't seem like it's something the Chiefs will have to worry about anymore, though.
