ST. JOSEPH Eric Fisher Jersey , Mo. —pranced toward the practice field for the first full-squad workout of training camp Saturday, the first time the star wide receiver has practiced with his teammates since the AFC title game.Hill thumped his chest, signed autographs, high-stepped across one practice field and played to the fans just over a week after the NFL said he would face no punishment from a messy offseason situation.The two-time All-Pro was suspended by the team during the NFL draft when audio surfaced of his then-fiance, Crystal Espinal, accusing him of hurting their 3-year-old son. But a criminal investigation and subsequent league inquiries failed to find enough evidence to support the claims.When the NFL announced last week it would not suspend Hill this season, the Chiefs wasted little time in confirming he would report to camp on the campus of Missouri Western State University.“Looked like he did some good things. He had a couple nice grabs, fast, quick, all of that,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. “He had a couple deep balls that he had to go get and he got them.”Hill was not available to speak to reporters, but quarterback Patrick Mahomes — who kept hitting him with a series of deep downfield throws — certainly sounded glad to have him back.“I thought it was good. I thought as a whole, the whole offense was rolling,” said Mahomes, the reigning league MVP. “We were really connecting on a lot of deep balls and intermediate throws. That’s a big part of our offense.”The overwhelmingly positive reception that Hill received on the practice field of the Division II college came just months after a public outcry to banish him from the league entirely.On the tape Demetrius Harris Jersey , only parts of which were aired on a local TV station, Hill talked about the way he punishes his son while also making threatening comments toward Espinal. The team immediately suspended Hill from all team activities, including voluntary summer workouts and its mandatory minicamp.At the time, Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt said he was “deeply disturbed” by the audio.The full conversation, secretly recorded in a Dubai airport, aired months later on a local radio station. It put the initial audio in greater context: Hill not only denies hurting his son, he also said that he never hurt Espinal during a 2015 incident in which he pleaded guilty to domestic abuse.Hill was kicked off the Oklahoma State team following the incident and wound up at West Alabama.He had largely steered clear of trouble after the Chiefs took a significant risk by taking him in the fifth round of the 2016 draft. Hill also became one of the top returners and wide receivers in the NFL, earning a pair of All-Pro nods and three trips to the Pro Bowl while shattering a series of Chiefs records, including yards receiving in a season with 1,479 this past year.The Chiefs and representatives for Hill were discussing a long-term contract when the audio of Hill first broke. Those talks were shelved and it remains unclear to what extent they have resumed.“I had a good visit with him earlier this week,” Hunt said Saturday. “It was a very frank conversation, talking to him about his responsibility as he comes back to being a Kansas City Chief.”Hunt declined to discuss the specifics of the conversation, but the chairman did say he stood by his comments about the initial audio. “I thought there was some inappropriate language in that tape,” he added, “and I’m sure Tyreek wishes he could have it back.”Also showing up for practice was defensive tackle Chris Jones Cameron Erving Jersey , who skipped the offseason while angling for a new contract. He’s hoping to parlay his 15 1/2-sack performance last season into a massive payday, but the two sides appear far apart as he enters the last year of his rookie deal.“Most guys in that position, there’s a lot of outside noise that dictates what they do,” Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu said. “For him to be here, that says a lot about his character and who he is as a person. … I could tell it’s not necessarily about money. It’s also being back in line with his boys.”NOTES: FS Armani Watts hurt his ribs during a running test earlier Saturday and was placed on the non-football injury list. … CB Bashaud Breeland cut his thumb early in practice. He was replaced by D’Montre Moore, who made the most of his opportunity by picking off a pass. Giants beat reporter Matt Lombardo says the Chiefs will be in the mix for one of the most prominent free agents on the market."The Kansas City Chiefs may be in the market for soon-to-be free agent safety Landon Collins, according to a new report from NJ.com New York Giants beat reporter Matt Lombardo. The Giants told Collins he would not be receiving the franchise tag on Tuesday.Lombardo lists the Chiefs among five teams that could be in the mix for Collins. Whether the ultimate result is outright release or trade, it appears that linebacker Justin Houston has played his final game with the Chiefs. As Lombardo states, the Chiefs could use that money to bring Collins aboard.Collins played safety under now-current Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo from 2015, his rookie season, to 2017, when Spagnuolo was let go by New York.Our own Matt Lane covered how Spagnuolo used Collins in his initial piece on what the 4-3 under/hybrid defense change means for the Chiefs secondary.Later in the piece Lane also explains how Collins had his best seasons under Spagnuolo.In addition to the reasons above, it is worth noting the Chiefs expressed interest in Collins at last year’s trade deadline, according to Yahoo! Sports’ Terez Paylor.Before eventually signing linebacker Anthony Hitchens and wide receiver Sammy Watkins during last offseason’s free agency, Chiefs general manager Brett Veach picked up the phone and called the Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Rams Reggie Ragland Jersey , respectively, in 2017. Deals couldn’t be worked out at the time, but he eventually acquired the players.At many points during this time of year, you’ll hear people reference “smoke.” That is short for, “If there is smoke, there is fire.”When it comes to Collins, there is too much smoke—the Houston rumors, the Spagnuolo connection, the Veach history, oh, and a chance to play with the MVP—for there not to be fire.As long as the Chiefs can figure out the cap space, Collins will be a Chief next season. At least, that is where I’d bet my money.
