Earlier in week, felt Hill's status was either-or proposition. If medical staff felt comfortable w/ stability of sternoclavicular joint, Hill was likely to play and see his pre-injury snaps and workload.

Felt pre-injury workload was likely because:
*stable joint means risk of re-injury low and same on snap 47 as snap 1.
*Hill's role in offense is known commodity and doesn't require advance notice to game plan
**KC depth chart offers no Hill-like alternatives

Overnight reports suggest medical staff comfortable w/ stability of Hill's joint. That was primary hurdle to playing this week.
But reports of soreness suggest Hill is having some football-specific reconditioning issues. Soreness limiting his range of motion?

If primary concern is now whether Hill can perform duties of his position, the probability of limited snaps and touches is much higher than it otherwise would be.

So...could the Chiefs use Hill as a decoy? Maybe. But there's no issue w/ Hill's legs. If you use him to stretch field and he runs past defense, Mahomes will throw him the ball.
Is it a high-leverage snap only game plan? You'd like Hill in that scenario, too.

The Chiefs are likely including the quick turnaround to a Thursday night game in their return-to-play calculus.
Prior to any pregame warmup reports, I think:
*Hill sits w/ if there any lingering concern
*Hill is important part of game plan if he's active
