He scored three more times as a rusher.<\/p>\n<p>Ask Reid, and the sky is the limit from here, especially if they can start lining him up more in the backfield, according to ESPN&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.espn.com\/blog\/kansas-city-chiefs\/post\/_\/id\/20668\/chiefs-will-expect-more-next-season-from-tyreek-hill\">Adam Teicher<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHe was a running back that they kind of moved around a little bit,&#8221; Reid said. \u201cHis routes when he first came were kind of raw. They weren\u2019t as disciplined as they need to be in this offense. So much of this offense is timing and being in a certain spot and knowing defenses, knowing secondaries and all that, how you\u2019re going to make adjustments. That was all new. He is a smart kid. He picked it up so fast, and he was able to play at our level.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>For Reid, Hill&#8217;s attitude and work ethic are where the rising star will need to remain level for the trend to continue upward:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cHe\u2019ll do nothing but get better as long as he keeps the right attitude and the same work ethic he had this past year. &#8230; He\u2019s traditionally been, for us, a very hard worker, very diligent, wanted to do the right things. I wouldn\u2019t expect that to change. I\u2019m expecting good things from him.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Few weapons in the NFL are as versatile or dangerous as Hill, who is the perfect fit in Kansas City with a quarterback like Alex Smith. He doesn&#8217;t just create great field position, he&#8217;s a threat to score from anywhere on the field while creating after the catch.<\/p>\n<p>The idea of Hill seeing an uptick in usage next year as he continues to learn should scare the rest of the AFC West.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><img alt=\"Chiefs' Andy Reid talks up bigger role for Tyreek Hill\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn1.bloguin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/2016\/01\/chrisroling_avatar_1452413426-74x74.png\" alt=\"\" \/>About Chris Roling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Chris is an Ohio University E.W.
