Hunter King & Tyler Hynes Make 'Holiday Touchdown' Cameo, Seemingly Giving Update on Characters from Hallmark's Chiefs Movie!
The new movie Holiday Touchdown: A Bills Love Story aired this past weekend on Hallmark Channel and the film featured a cameo from Hunter King and Tyler Hynes, seemingly giving an update on their characters from the first installment of the franchise.
Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story aired during the Thanksgiving Weekend last year and kicked off Hallmark’s partnership with the NFL.
Hunter and Tyler starred in the film as Alana Higman, a giant Chiefs fan who entered a contest to be named the team’s biggest fan, and Derrick Taylor, the Chiefs director of fan engagement who was organizing the contest. They fell in love at the end of the movie, of course!
Instead of making a sequel, Hallmark decided to continue the franchise with a new team and a new couple. It appears we got an update on Alana and Derrick’s relationship though!

Early into the movie, Hunter and Tyler are seen together at a Christmas Tree Farm and they share a cute interaction with Santa, who once again is played by Abraham Benrubi.
While it’s never explicitly said that Hunter and Tyler are back as Alana and Derrick, Tyler shares a wink with Santa that seemingly confirms that they’ve met before!
Holiday Touchdown was the most-watched cable movie of the year in 2024.
