PATRICK MAHOMES AND CHIEFS CELEBRATE TEAMMATE'S ENGAGEMENT AMID CONCERN FOR TYREEK HILL'S DEVASTATING INJURY

KANSAS CITY, MO — There was a little extra reason to celebrate in Kansas City this week, and it had nothing to do with football formations or Sunday scores. Chiefs offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Tiffany Hylton, and the big man’s teammates made sure to let him know they were right there with him—off the field, this time.

Taylor took to Instagram in late September to share the moment, posting a photo of the proposal along with the heartfelt caption: “Every prayer answered in one yes. 💍 Thank you Jesus! #Engaged 🤍🥂”.

The setting? Classic romance meets five-star execution—just like any good offensive line play. Taylor proposed in front of a towering heart-shaped floral arrangement of red roses, complete with a red carpet runway lined with matching vases to set the stage.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and rookie wideout Xavier Worthy—key pieces of the Kansas City offense—wasted no time jumping into the celebration. Worthy commented, “Congrats family,” while Mahomes kept it simple and heartfelt with, “Congrats!!!”

Taylor and Hylton recently celebrated their one-year anniversary this summer—a milestone they now follow with a new future ahead.

Mahomes Sends Support After Hill’s Devastating Injury

While fans were raising a glass for Taylor and Hylton, the mood across the league turned somber on Monday night when Tyreek Hill went down with a serious knee injury during the Dolphins’ primetime clash against the Jets.

Hill suffered a dislocated knee along with multiple ligament damage (including an ACL tear), per reports, and underwent surgery. The injury happened in the third quarter as Hill caught a pass and went down awkwardly—and the pain was immediately visible.

Mahomes, Hill’s former quarterback and longtime teammate in Kansas City, sent a message of support via X: “Prayers up man 🙏…..”

Hill and Mahomes built a special connection in Kansas City from 2017 through the 2021 season, forming one of the most explosive QB-WR duos the league has ever seen before Hill was traded to Miami in March 2022.

Now, with Hill expected to miss the rest of the 2025 season, the Dolphins face an uphill battle on offense. But in moments like this, the football community—regardless of team colors—rallies around one of its own.

Between personal milestones and painful setbacks, this week highlighted both the human side of the game and the powerful bond among teammates, past and present. For Jawaan Taylor, the journey is just beginning off the field. For Tyreek Hill, another chapter of resilience is about to be written.
