Wide receiver Tyreek Hill is having trouble connecting with his former teammate Travis Kelce.

In media availability ahead of the Wild Card matchup between the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday, Hill jokingly told reporters that the tight end — who is dating Taylor Swift — is “too famous” to talk to him.

“I texted Kelce,” Hill, 29, said on Thursday. “He still hasn’t texted me back.”

The former Chiefs player then added: “He’s probably still on his Taylor Swift thing… but yeah man, those guys are too famous for me now, I guess.”

Hill, who spent his first six seasons in the NFL in Kansas City before he was traded to the Dolphins in 2022, is becoming famous in his own right in Miami.

During the regular season, the Pro Bowler notched 1,799 receiving yards — the most in his eight-year career.

Hill had already found success in Kansas City where his relationship with quarterback Patrick Mahomes was on pace to break records. Over six years, the duo combined to deliver 6,630 yards and 56 touchdowns.

This season, Hill has grabbed off-the-field headlines as well. Last fall, he found time to get married to Keeta Vaccaro.

But a two-alarm fire at Hill’s Southwest Ranches, Fla., home earlier this month — in which the cause was determined to be a child playing with a lighter — has the athlete keeping it all in perspective.

“It’s done. The house done, bro,” Hill told his Dolphins teammates in footage that aired on HBO’s Hard Knocks. “Smoke damage, fire damage. The whole upstairs is burnt down. It’s alright, though.”
