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.

Tyreek Hill runs 100 meters in 10.15 seconds at California track meet
Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill showed up with little fanfare at a track meet in California on Friday and won the 100-meter dash with an impressive time of 10.15 seconds. That's an incredibly fast race considering that Hill is 31 years old and hadn't run track competitively since college, and shows that if Hill had wanted to focus on track instead of football, he has the talent to be an elite sprinter. DK Metcalf, who competed in a 100-meter race in 2021, was widely praised for his time of 10.37 seconds. Hill bested Metcalf's time easily. Advertisement Hill's race was part of the Last Chance Sprint Series, and the competition Hill beat was solid: Isaac Bostio, who was last year's NCAA Division II national champion in the 100 meters, finished second among all the 100-meter runners at the meet, behind Hill at 10.18 seconds. In Hill's own heat, the second-place finisher was former Michigan sprinter Asani Hampton in 10.26 seconds. Hill has been talking up a race with Noah Lyles, and after winning the race on Friday, Hill held up a sign saying, "Noah could never." The reality is Lyles could beat Hill easily in a 100-meter sprint, but Hill still did something incredibly impressive on the track on Friday.
