The Facts:
Hillis signed
a one-year deal with the Chiefs almost two months ago, and although he’s still unsure what his role will be, he says he is willing to do whatever is asked, according to the Kansas City Star. “I have an open mind and I’m willing to do whatever. You know, for the past seven years I’ve had seven different head coaches and seven different playbooks, Hillis said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Hillis began his NFL career as a fullback with the Denver Broncos in 2008. Injuries to several other runners forced the Broncos to make him their featured back — and he played well. Two years later, he was traded to Cleveland, where at first, he did a little of everything. The Chiefs apparently like his versatility -- he was the first free agent they signed -- and are likely to have him share time as the featured back with Jamaal Charles, but might also put him at fullback. ... One reason Hillis signed with the Chiefs was to be reunited with OC Brian Daboll. Hillis had his best NFL season in 2010 for the Browns with Daboll calling the plays. He rushed for 1,177 yards, caught 61 passes and scored 13 touchdowns that year.
