Andy Hill enters his fifth season as the assistant special teams coach with the Chiefs in 2024. Prior to his arrival in Kansas City, he had a successful collegiate coaching career spanning 30 years.

Hill assisted the 2023 special teams unit en route to back-to-back Super Bowl wins after the Chiefs defeated the 49ers 25-22 in Super Bowl LVIII. Hill assisted K Harrison Butker to his best season of his career, going 33-for-35 (94.3%) on field goals and a perfect 38-for-38 on PATs. He totaled 137 points throughout the season, tying his second-most points in a season (147 in 2019). Butker converted four field goals in Super Bowl LVIII - tied for the most in a Super Bowl - and set a Super Bowl record for longest made FG in Super Bowl history (57 yards). Hill also tutored P/H Tommy Townsend to single-season records of 59 punts and 2,469 net yards. Butker and Townsend were both voted on by their teammates to be 2023 playoff captains. WR Richie James led the team both in kick and punt return, averaging 20.8 yards on kick return (nine returns) and 10.0 yards on punt return (20 returns).

With Hill's assistance, the 2022 special teams unit was able to rally from a Week 1 injury to K Harrison Butker. After missing four games due to his ankle injury, Butker converted a 62-yard FG (Week 6 vs. Buffalo), which was the longest in Chiefs history. Butker capped off his season with a 45-yard field goal with three seconds left in the AFC Championship Game and a game sealing field goal in Super Bowl LVII. Third-year P Tommy Townsend also had a career year ranking first in the league for net punting average (45.58) and second for punting average (50.42), both of which were Chiefs single-season records. He was named to the AP All-Pro team (first-team), his first Pro Bowl and was a 2022 playoff captain by vote of his teammates. Early in the season, the return game saw some adversity and rookie RB Isiah Pacheco was mentored to fill the kick return role, averaging 20.6 yards per return. WR Kadarius Toney was utilized at punt return and had a Super Bowl record-setting return of 65 yards.

In 2021, the special teams unit ranked first in punt return yards allowed per return (4.9) and fifth in average kickoff yards allowed (19.4). P Tommy Townsend won AFC Special Teams Player of the Week (Week 9) and AFC Special Teams Player of the Month for November. In the Week 9 game versus Green Bay, Townsend landed five of six punts inside the 20 for an average of 56.8 yards. During the Week 11 game at Las Vegas, Townsend completed a pass for 16 yards to WR Marcus Kemp in the fourth quarter on a punt fake.

In his first NFL season, Hill assisted with a special teams unit that finished fourth in the NFL in kick return average (25.8). He also mentored rookie P Tommy Townsend who finished the year with 20 punts inside the 20.

Prior to the NFL, he previously spent 24 seasons (1996-2019) at the University of Missouri, making him the second longest tenured assistant coach in MU football history. In 2018, Hill became Mizzou's first-ever special teams coordinator, after 19 seasons working with the receivers and three seasons with the quarterbacks.

During his final season at Mizzou, Hill mentored senior WR/PR Richaud Floyd who finished fourth in the country in punt return yards logging 15 punt returns for 206 yards with a 13.7 yard average.

Mizzou's 2018 Liberty Bowl appearance marked the 17th bowl game he has been part of as a player or coach with the Tigers – meaning Hill has had a hand in more than half of MU's 33-game bowl game history. In his first season as special teams coordinator in 2018, his unit produced three blocked kicks on the season, which ranked as 19th-best in the nation, and third-best in the Southeastern Conference. The punt team's net punting average of 39.43 yards per kick ranked 27th in the NCAA in 2018, and senior P Corey Fatony ranked 16th nationally in the individual punting stats with his 44.4 average per attempt. During his time with the receivers, he coached seven out of Mizzou's eight 1,000-yard receiving seasons in school history. He spent 2013-15 coaching Mizzou's quarterbacks, including mentoring NFL QB Drew Lock as a freshman starter in 2015.

Prior to his tenure at Missouri, Hill was the head football coach at Hutchinson (Kan.) Community College (1994-95). Hutchinson went 18-6 under Hill, including a 10-2 record in 1995 when it won its first conference title since 1969 and ranked ninth in the final NJCAA national poll. He was named the conference Coach of the Year. Hill was the offensive coordinator at Hutchinson in 1992 and 1993 after serving as a graduate assistant at SMU in the spring of 1992.

Hill is a Mizzou economics grad who walked on to the Tiger football team in 1980 and eventually earned a scholarship as a wide receiver. He lettered in 1980, '81, '83 and '84 and played on Missouri teams that earned trips to the Liberty, Tangerine and Holiday Bowls. In his career, Hill caught 51 passes for 946 yards and scored seven touchdowns. As a senior, he caught 25 passes for 445 yards and three scores. Following his playing days at Missouri, he spent time in the training camps of the Kansas City Chiefs and Calgary Stampeders in 1985 and '86.
