Tyreek Hill Doesn't Hold Back on Noah Lyles, Challenges Him to Race

Tyreek Hill is among the group of professional athletes fed up with Noah Lyles' antics at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

During an interview with NFL reporter Kay Adams at Miami Dolphins practice on Monday, Hill called out Lyles for "faking" illness after his bronze medal finish in the men's 200 meter final.

Hill is not happy with Lyles' assertion that NBA and Super Bowl champions should not be referred to as "world champions."

"Noah Lyles can't say nothing after what just happened to him... He wants to come out and pretend that he's sick. I feel like that's horseradish. For him to do that then say we're not world champions of our sport... Come on bruh. Just speak on what you know about."

Adams fueled the fire, asking Hill if he would challenge Lyles to a race.

"I would beat Noah Lyles. I would beat Noah Lyles," Hill said. "... I wouldn't beat him by a lot, but I would beat Noah Lyles. And when I beat him, I'm going to put on a COVID mask and let him know I mean business."

Lyles claimed Olympic gold in the 100 meter with a thrilling photo finish. He entered the 200 meter finals as the undisputed favorite, but ultimately recorded a third-place finish. After the race, he revealed that he'd tested positive for COVID two days prior.

Hill is entering his third season as a member of the Dolphins. The former track and field star led the NFL in receiving yards (1,799) and receiving touchdowns (13) this past season, earning his second consecutive All-Pro selection.

The Dolphins will begin their regular-season campaign with a Week 1 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars on September 8.
