Tyreek Hill is one of the fastest, if not fastest, players in the NFL. Hill even believes that he could take on Usain Bolt, but the Olympian isn’t backing down.

The beef all started when Usain Bolt appeared on the Pat McAfee Show and decided to take a few shots against the Kansas City Chiefs speedster. Bolt recalled having a conversation with Hill where he was talking about how great his 40-yard dash time was.
Bolt thought it was all bogus as he explained to Pat McAfee, ““Me and Tyreek Hill got into it. He was talking ‘blah blah blah.’ But, then I went to the combine one year, and if you go on the net right now, I ran 4.22 in my sweats and some street shoes.”
Usain Bolt is 6-5, 207 pounds and 32-years old.
He just ran the fastest 40 time ever recorded with 4.22.pic.twitter.com/EzGcNFRp67

Hill responded to that by saying that Bolt was washed up and that he could easily take him in a 40-yard or even 100m sprint.

Bolt has an answer back for Hill now.
Usain Bolt Isn’t Ready To Back Down From A Race With Tyreek Hill, Is Ready To Put His Gold Medal On The Line
On the Dan Patrick Show, Usain Bolt made another appearance where he spoke about the challenge that Tyreek Hill issued to him. As you might expect from the eight time gold medalist, he wasn’t ready to back down at all from Tyreek Hill.
Dan Patrick suggested adding stakes to the race where both sprinters would put up something incredibly valuable. For Tyreek, that would be his Super Bowl ring, while for the Olympian it would be one of his gold medals. Of course, Bolt was more than willing to do that as he complete confidence he’d win.
“[Hill’s] been talking, so we’ll see. We should put some thought into that one.”
Bolt also said that he’s more than willing to race Tyreek Hill. Everyone probably expects the retired sprinter to turn a blind eye to the whole situation, but with the way Hill has been talking, Bolt may just have to take him up on his offer.
“I still don’t think he can take me 40 meters. I text [Hill], ‘You keep talking. I might just show up.'”
