The ongoing feud between Dolphins superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill and American Olympic track star Noah Lyles is reaching its breaking point.

Hill has doubled down on his comments regarding beating Lyles in a foot race. The 30-year-old said he was ready to race Lyles after Lyles called him out.

This talk was sparked almost a week ago when media personality Kay Adams visited the Dolphins training camp and sat down with Hill. The topic of Lyles’ “world champions” comments and his most recent Olympic performance was at the focal point. Hill wasn’t shy to tell the public how he really felt about Lyles and how he could beat him in a race.

“Noah Lyles can’t say nothing after what just happened to him,” said Hill. “You know what I’m saying? He wants to come out and pretend like he’s sick. I feel like that’s horseradish. So, for him to do that and say that we’re not world champions of our sport? Bruh, just speak on what you know about, and that’s track,” Hill responds.

“I would beat Noah Lyles … not by a lot, but I would beat Noah Lyles,” Hill adds.

A couple of days after making these comments, Hill is ready to put his money where his mouth is. He is ready to race Lyles in a 50-yard race, and now we’ll wait and see if and when Lyles responds.

Hill is among the fastest players in the NFL, as he can clock a speed of up to 22.01 mph. Although the All-Pro wide receiver is a fast man, Olympic-type track speed is a different animal.

Lyles reached a top speed of 27.09 mph for his 9.79-second run, which won him the gold medal at the 2024 Olympic Games. On average, Lyles runs 23.17 mph, and the lowest he’s gone is Hill’s top speed on the football field, 22.76 mph.

A lot of it has to do with the gear that Hill wears on the football field, so if some of that were removed, then maybe he could stand a chance or make it a competitive race.

Hill has responded, and now all eyes will be on whether Lyles will accept the challenge or respectfully decline. If he indeed accepts, that race would be one for the ages. Lyles has been public enemy No.1 for many basketball and football fans, so it’ll be interesting to see if he’ll lean towards that role in this potential race.
