Tyreek Hill Usage Suggests Another Massive Game Against Broncos

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill is coming off one of the best games of his career. He turned 15 targets into 13 catches for a whopping 269 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns.

And the numbers suggest he could be in for another dominant showing against the Denver Broncos in Week 13.

Over half Tyreek Hill's routes come from the slot. He leads the NFL in slot TD.

UDFA Essang Bassey covers the slot for the Broncos. He ranks 107th of 132 qualified corners in PFF coverage grade. He's allowed an 86% catch rate for 10.2 yards per catch on slot targets this year.

Hill has run over half of his routes out of the slot this season, leading the league in TDs from the slot. In Week 13 he'll likely draw a matchup with Broncos' slot CB Essang Bassey, who has drawn a grade of 47.8 in coverage from Pro Football Focus. That ranks 107th among 132 qualified corners.

He's also allowed 85.7% of his targets to be caught, for an average of 10.2 yards per reception.

With Hill working out of the slot against one of the NFL's least efficient corners, the Chiefs' superstar could be in line for another big day.
