Tyreek Hill has ruled the NFL when it comes to pure speed. Usain Bolt is the fastest man to ever walk the planet. And as lopsided as it may sound, Tyreek Hill is pretty confident he can take Bolt in a 40-yard dash.

Olympics track and field legend Usain Bolt was a guest this Thursday on the Pat MacAfee Show talking about his Olympic history. During the interview, he recalled having a conversation with Hill.
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

“Me & Tyreek Hill got into it 1 time..
He was talking bla bla bla but then I went to the combine 1 year & if you go on the net right now.. I ran 4.22 in my sweats..

And Tyreek Hill didn’t take it lightly.
Tyreek Hill Challenges Usain Bolt to a 40-yard dash
Hill clapped back at Usain Bolt on 2 occasions. First, he commented on the video of Usain Bolt on the Pat McAfee Show.

Then Hill spoke to the reporters at the Chiefs training camp on Friday. “Usain Bolt got out of the game for a reason right?” Hill told reporters on Friday. “He’s old, he’s washed up, and he can’t see me in 40 yards. Hundred-yard dash, yes, that’s what he do. But 40-yard dash, according to this, Usain Bolts, you cannot see me.”

Tyreek Hill has some track appearance and has been open about his dream to run in the Olympics. And Usain Bolt knows a little about running at the Olympics. But the 8 time Olympic Gold Medalist is now 35, and Tyreek Hill is in his prime. So as unlikely as it is, it should be very interesting to see if we can one day watch Usain Bolt battle it out with Tyreek Hill on the track.
