The Kansas City Chiefs will face the Miami Dolphins on Saturday in the AFC Wild Card Game.

It means Pro Bowl tight end Travis Kelce will face former teammate Tyreek Hill for the second time this season.

The Chiefs defeated the Dolphins earlier this season in their international matchup.

While meeting with reporters on Thursday, Kelce talked about Hill’s return to Arrowhead Stadium.

“I expect KC to give him nothing but love until he’s putting up the peace sign or something, then he might hear a few boos. But who he was for this community speaks volumes. Every single kids camp, he made it an effort to go out and shake those hands and give those kids an experience they will never have again.

“That’s why Tyreek is loved in this city and forever will be because of who he was off the field as well.”

The Chiefs traded Hill to the Dolphins due to failed contract talks.

The Dolphins gave Hill a four-year, $120 million contract extension, making him the highest paid wide receiver in the league.

Hill had an MVP candidate year, recording 119 receptions for 1,799 yards and 13 touchdowns.
