Dolphins' Tyreek Hills Runs a 10.15 100 Meter Dash in Social Media Post
Dolphins' Tyreek Hills Runs a 10.15 100 Meter Dash in Social Media Post originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Miami Dolphins are heading into a huge season in 2025. With a few players aging and others departing, 2025 will be the litmus test for this team to determine how far they'll go. One of the most important players is superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Advertisement Coming off a lackluster, by his standards, 2024, Hill is gearing up for a huge 2025 season. In a new post from Hill on social media, with the caption "Went for a lil jog today," he showcased his insane speed while also calling out Olympic Athlete Noah Lyles. In the viral video, Hill is racing against other runners in a 100 meter dash. Hill placed first, running a 10.15 100 meter dash, an incredible time, and 0.11 faster than second place in the race. At the beginning of the video, Hill sent a message. "Let's go viral fellas," said Hill. "Let's have fun doing this." He then went on to run the incredible 100 meter dash, and afterwards called out Lyles by holding up a sign that said "Noah could never." Sam Navarro-Imagn Images His beef with Lyles is well-documented, and this call-out from Hill is another jab from the Dolphins receiver. Hill and Lyles went back and forth in 2024, but after Hill's disappointing 2024 season, things cooled off. Advertisement In 2024, Hill had 81 receptions for 989 receiving yards and six touchdowns, all the lowest of his career since 2019. He didn't make the Pro Bowl, nor did he earn any All-Pro votes. It was the worst overall season he's had in his career, as he didn't win any awards and also didn't put up his typical numbers as a stater. Hill's viral video is a great sign that he's ready to go for the Dolphins, something Miami will need in a pivotal 2025 season. After a lackluster 2024 campaign, the Dolphins superstar receiver will look to rebound in 2025.

Tyreek Hill challenges Noah Lyles after running a 100-meter dash that wouldn't beat Noah Lyles
Tyreek Hill took his rivalry with track star Noah Lyles several steps further on Friday, throwing down a 100-meter dash time that had him at the front of the pack at the Last Chance Sprint Series. The Miami Dolphins wide receiver recorded a new personal best of 10.15 seconds in his first 100-meter dash since 2014, the best mark of the 91 sprinters to run in the heats at Sherman Oaks, California. Hill delivered a message immediately after the race: "Noah could never." The two have said they plan to race at some point before the U.S. outdoor championships in July. Let's make one thing clear: Hill returning to track at 31 years old and throwing down a time that wouldn't look out of place at the world championships is an outrageously impressive achievement and a strong reminder that all your favorite NFL players are simply mutants when compared to 99.9% of the population.

Hill did have a 1.2 mph of wind assistance in California, but there's no denying it, Hill looked like an elite track runner on Friday. It is a credit to him that we're even talking about him like this. Unfortunately, Hill is not in a feud with an elite track runner. He is in a feud with the elite track runner. Tyreek Hill's time is slow by Noah Lyles' standards Hill said "Noah could never," but the fact is that Lyles has, several times, for years. Advertisement Lyles ran a 10.14 in 2015, 13 days after his 18th birthday. Lyles won the Olympics with a time of 9.79 seconds and won the 2023 world championships with a time of 9.83 seconds. He has not run a time slower than 10.15 seconds in an event on World Athletics' ledger since April 2022. A difference of a quarter of a second doesn't sound like much, but it can separate a first- and last-place finish in an elite track event. And it takes an enormous amount of training and natural gifts to close the gap. Granted, Hill might beat Lyles if they raced tomorrow, but that's because Lyles is currently dealing with an ankle injury. Tyreek Hill is one of the fastest men in the world. He still has to make up some ground to catch Noah Lyles.

Track is all about training and Hill could still make up some ground there, and/or have a really a good day while Lyles has a bad day. It just needs to be said, Hill isn't there yet. Advertisement Hill probably knows that, because he told reporters last month he was planning to run a 10-flat on Friday. He also said he hopes to race Lyles soon and compete in the 2028 Olympics — as a track runner, not a flag football player — so this isn't close to over. It's been an eventful offseason overall for Hill, who opened it by saying he wanted out of Miami after their season-ending loss. He later walked those comments back and apologized. There was also a domestic incident in April, in which his wife called police and said she feared for their daughter's safety.
