'Noah could never': Tyreek Hill calls out Olympic Champion in bold sprint challenge
Photo byTyreek Hill has made a career out of leaving defenders in the dust. But now, the Miami Dolphins wide receiver—better known to fans as 'Cheetah'—is setting his sights beyond the football field.
In a bold new chapter of his athletic journey, Hill is challenging Olympic gold medalist Noah Lyles to a 100-meter race. With a freshly clocked sprint time that's raised more than a few eyebrows, Hill is not just chasing bragging rights—he's chasing a title: the fastest man alive. And it's not just about speed anymore—it's about leadership, legacy, and something to prove.
Tyreek Hill stuns with 10.15s 100m sprint, challenges Olympic gold medalist Noah Lyles to a head-to-head race fans are dying to see
At the Last Chance Sprint Series held in Sherman Oaks, California, on June 8, 2025,
Tyreek Hill
stunned the track world by running a 100-meter dash in
10.15
seconds—his first official appearance in the event since 2014. Outpacing all 91 sprinters in the heats, Hill's blazing comeback didn't just earn him the top spot, it sent a direct message to a particular rival.

'Noah could never,' Hill said post-race, firing a shot at Noah Lyles, the reigning 100-meter Olympic champion who won gold in Paris in 2024 with a time of
9.784
seconds. The two have traded verbal jabs before, but Hill's latest performance has made a potential head-to-head more than just fantasy.

When asked about a possible showdown, both athletes confirmed interest in racing before the U.S. Outdoor Championships in July.
Back in 2016, Hill logged the fastest speed ever recorded by NFL's Next Gen Stats—
23.24
mph on a kick return. Even in 2023, he ranked among the league's fastest, topping
21.5
mph on four separate occasions. But this new sprint effort marks a serious return to the track scene, one that has fans and track insiders buzzing.
How Tyreek Hill is proving himself on and off the field
Off the track, Hill is tackling another challenge: leadership. While his speed has never been in question, his role within the Miami Dolphins locker room has. Speaking to local media earlier this offseason at Dolphins HQ in Miami Gardens, Hill admitted, 'I've got to prove myself.' He explained that his past behavior didn't fully reflect the expectations of a team captain and that he's working to earn that title the right way.
Bradley Chubb, the Dolphins' star edge rusher, noted this shift firsthand. 'He's been more vocal, more involved,' Chubb told reporters. 'You can tell he wants to lead.'
Whether it's blazing down a football field or going stride for stride with an Olympian, Tyreek Hill's 2025 is shaping up to be his most dynamic season yet. He's not just chasing
Noah Lyles
—he's chasing growth, greatness, and respect. If the race happens, it'll be a must-watch. But either way, Hill's already showing that speed isn't his only weapon.

WTC final: Australia head coach backs Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne after Lord's heartbreak
Australia's Marnus Labuschagne, right, and batting partner Usman Khawaja react as they walk past each other during the World Test Championship final between South Africa and Australia at Lord's cricket ground in London, Wednesday, June 11, 2025. (AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth) Australia head coach, Andrew McDonald , has backed old guard Usman Khawaja and out of form Marnus Labuschagne after they failed to defend their World Test Championship (WTC) at Lord's against South Africa. Labuschagne opened in the WTC final against South Africa and scored 17 and 22 in both the innings. 'He's a big part of the future of the team. Anyone that averages 45 or 46 in Test cricket at that age is important,' McDonald was quoted by Fox Cricket. 'We've got older players who are closer to the end than the start. We've got some younger players that are coming in, and you definitely want those guys that have, I think, 60-odd Test matches. 'Couldn't have dreamt it better': Aiden Markram 'If he can get his game in good order for the next four or five years, he can underpin that batting order. But at the moment, he'd be disappointed with the returns. 'He's missed out on big scores. He threatened at the MCG (when he) got a pair of 70s, and, you know, if they had been a pair of hundreds, the conversation shifts as well. 'But we're confident that he could return to his best and hence (that is) why we keep picking him. It is at what point do we stop picking him?' Lobo Predicted It, Again: South Africa's Historic WTC Win vs Australia On 39-year-old Khawaja, McDonald said: "He's on contract, he's an important player." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Switch to UnionBank Rewards Card UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo "He gives us stability at his best at the top. And we like to look at our players at their best. "No doubt, a couple of failures here and people then start to talk about maybe it's the end. I don't see an end date with the way he's training, the way he's preparing, the way he's moving. He went back to Shield cricket, got 100 last [season]. So I think he's got plenty of runs left in him. It'll come down to his inner drive and the way he prepares. "It was a bit the same with Davey as well. The way he moved, we saw some positives in that. We knew that the runs were around the corner. We feel as though Usman's got a big part to play."

Jannik Sinner says he's had 'a few sleepless nights' since losing to Carlos Alcaraz in French Open
Second placed Italy's Jannik Sinner reacts after the final match of the French Tennis Open against Spain's Carlos Alcaraz at the Roland-Garros stadium in Paris, Sunday, June 8, 2025. (AP Photo/Lindsey Wasson) World No. 1 Jannik Sinner has revealed that he has had trouble sleeping after he lost the French Open final to Carlos Alcaraz in a five-set thriller. In the fourth set of the match, the Italian had three championship points, but he faltered and Alcaraz recovered to win the gruelling contest. Alcaraz won the match 4-6, 6-7(4), 6-4, 7-6(3), 7-6(10-2) after five hours and 29 minutes — the longest men's final in Roland Garros history. 3 match points down, Alcaraz locked in and won the next 5 points. The rest is history 📚 #RolandGarros — Roland-Garros (@rolandgarros) June 10, 2025 "I've already had a few sleepless nights, but I think every day it gets better. My family stands behind me, and my friends. That is the most important thing for me. Tennis is important in my life, but nonetheless, family and friends are more important. I still think often about the match,' Sinner said in his pre-tournament press conference at the Terra Wortmann Open in Halle. 'It happens. I don't know how it will look in the future. I think it is not the most important thing, but I still try to forget the negative aspects and see what I can do here [in Halle]." Sinner also said that playing table tennis has helped him keep his mind off the defeat. 'I spent a few days with friends and family having fun doing simple things, like playing ping pong. For me, it is important to find the time and the way to experience a bit of normality. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo I am lucky to be surrounded by people who care about me and love me very much.' Sinner, who opens his Halle title defence against a qualifier on Monday, said: 'I think that for me to play another tournament is positive, because every match is a new beginning, and I must be mentally ready to give my all on the court. Therefore, it is great that I can be here in Halle. It always depends on how you manage to react and get out of it, and also on what you want or don't want to see. I can focus on the missed match points or on a match where I was mentally on the ball for five and a half hours.'
