Tyreek Hill, popularly known as ‘The Cheetah,’ was left fuming 5 years ago when a Patriots fan had thrown a beer at him during a Chiefs game. As it turns out, New England fans really seem to ‘like’ Tyreek as their actions recently prompted The Cheetah to declare them as the nastiest NFL fans.

After defeating New England in an entertaining clash, Hill had a lot to say about how nasty the New England fans really are, as they never shy away from saying things which one wouldn’t repeat in a church. The Miami Dolphins recently got the better of the Patriots as they registered a 24-17 win on the road.
Tyreek Hill Lashes Out at Unruly Patriots Fans
It would be safe to say that Tyreek Hill is not a big fan of the New England Patriots supporters. He terms them as ‘one of the worst fans in the NFL’. Given his prior history with the Patriots fans and his experience at the Gilette Stadium, it’s understandable why he would say so.

Speaking after the Miami Dolphins’ win over the New England Patriots on Sunday, Tyreek Hill said that it felt tremendous to get the win under his belt. His satisfaction was mainly due to defeating the Patriots in front of the rivals fans who were abusive throughout the game. Hill was also spotted sarcastically waving goodbye to the Patriots faithful, while claiming that he would do it again.
“It felt tremendous, man,” Hill said to the reporters per Boston.com. “Those fans are probably some of the worst fans in the NFL, and I’m gonna stand on that because they are real nasty and some of the things they were saying wasn’t — I wouldn’t say in church. So, it felt great to wave goodbye to the fans. And I’ll do it again, bye!” The Cheetah added.
Tyreek Hill Had an Ugly Encounter With Patriots Fans 5 Years Ago
As mentioned before, Tyreek Hill and the Patriots fans go way back and the first really ugly altercation between the two parties happened in 2018. At that time, Tyreek Hill was associated with the Kansas City Chiefs. After completing a 75-yard game-tying touchdown, he was greeted by fans in the front row with middle fingers and one buffoon had even thrown beer on his face.

“My coach [Andy Reid] told me, ‘Don’t get emotional. Don’t get mad about it because it comes with the territory,” Hill had said after the incident per NESN. “I’m not mad at all,” he had added. However Hill’s agent at that time, Drew Rosenhaus, wanted the fans to be prosecuted. The Foxborough Police Department was quick to identify the culprits and they were banned from attending any more games at the Gilette Stadium.
