A little bit of ego can be a very dangerous thing. As much as Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> wide receiver Tyreek Hill<\/a> would love to be the man who can say he beat the world\u2019s fastest man, he\u2019s walking \u2013 or sprinting \u2013 into a dangerous game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve had your fun talking about beating Usain Bolt<\/a>, Tyreek. But let it go before he takes you up on the challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kansas City Chiefs receiver Tyreek Hill might be the NFL\u2019s fastest man<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Saying that Hill is fast is even more obvious than saying water is wet. The man who uses @Cheetah as his Twitter handle has shown there isn\u2019t a defensive back in football who can stay with him. That explains his 15.6 yards per catch and 41 receiving touchdowns over the past four seasons in an impressive display of sustained excellence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throw in the three first-team All-Pro honors, and that\u2019s quite the track record. Speaking of track, Hill does possess the credentials of a legitimate sprinter. As an 18-year-old in 2012, Hill recorded a clocking of 20.14 seconds in the 200-meter dash. While not in Usain Bolt territory, that sort of speed would have earned Hill a lane in the finals of the recent U.S. Olympic trials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, 200 meters is not a distance that interests NFL scouts. The measuring stick in football has long been the 40-yard dash, and Hill clocked :04.29 at his West Alabama pro day in 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The football star and the track legend have been chirping at each other<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
