Legendary tight end Kelce has been a huge part of those triumphs alongside superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
And Hill claims Kelce is on $14-15million a year in Kansas - far less than his presumed market value.
"I think Kelce like at 14, 15," Hill said on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast.
"Nobody's Travis Kelce. Nobody's Patrick Mahomes, either. Those two - they're just different.

"They're gonna be the highest-paid. But obviously, they're gonna take friendly deals to keep the team together."
Hill was drafted by the Chiefs in 2016 and played with Kelce for five seasons before joining the Dolphins.
Asked if his former teammates was the GOAT, the receiver was not sure.
"Of all time? For sure," said Hill.

"The greatest tight end that I played with, I will say that," he clarified.
"I don't wanna say nothing else about nobody else's career. But from what I've seen and how hard he works in practice, he's definitely the greatest."
Hill left Kansas City for a $120m four-year contract with the Dolphins as he wanted to be the best-paid receiver in the NFL.

"I wanted to be in KC, I told them that," he said.
"I don't know what it is, man. I believe it's one of those things like they wanna keep the core guys together.
"But I think you have a real good team and a real good owner and you guys are winning all of these championships - money's there bro."
Another man who is leading his peers in salary is Chiefs head coach Andy Reid.
The four-time Super Bowl champ has signed an extension up until 2029.
