MIAMI — Yes, Tyreek Hill would love to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics in 2020. Doing so is, in actuality, easier said than done.
Hill, 25, is the NFL’s fastest player. The Kansas City Chiefs wideout is a 5-foot-9, 185-pound blur that defenses must account for at all times. That’s what Hill’s 4.24 speed in the 40-yard dash — his time during his pro day in 2016 — does for him on the gridiron.
That speed translates well to the track, which is why Hill’s revelation surrounding the 2020 Olympics, which he told reporters on Wednesday, is so fascinating.
