Chiefs Are Losing Key Member Of Their Super Bowl-Winning Team After Shocking Announcement

   

The Kansas City Chiefs are coming into the 2025 season, missing a key person from the team.

Chiefs Announce Second Retirement in the Month of June

Former Missouri football coach Andy Hill has retired from his role as an assistant special teams coach with the Chiefs.

Hill spent five seasons with the Chiefs, winning two Super Bowls and making an additional two. With him aboard, he contributed to one of the most dominant runs in NFL history.

Hill had been part of Reid’s staff since 2020 and was special teams coach for the Missouri Tigers before making the leap to the NFL.

They came short of their third straight championship after losing in the Super Bowl last February.

 

The Kansas City Chiefs are considered favorites to once again repeat as AFC West champions and make their fourth straight appearance in the Super Bowl. But to get there, they’ll have to make some changes to replace what they are losing in Hill.

Hill began his tenure with Missouri football in 1980 as a walk-on. He worked his way up to a four-season stint as a receiver and punt returner. He returned to the program as a wide receivers coach in 1996 before taking on six different roles on the coaching staff.

His 24 years with Missouri is the second longest run an assistant coach has had in program history.
