The fastest player in NFL history — the Cheetah whose world-class sprint speed and elite route-running make him the most dangerous deep threat the league has ever seen.
Tyreek Hill was born in Pearson, Georgia in 1994. He attended multiple colleges following an incident that led to a suspended sentence before West Alabama and then Oklahoma State gave him football opportunities. The Kansas City Chiefs selected him in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft. He was timed at 23.24 mph during a game — the fastest speed ever recorded by an NFL player. His combination of a 4.29-second 40-yard dash, elite route running and the ability to turn short passes into long touchdowns made him the most feared receiver in the NFL during his Chiefs years. He won Super Bowl LIV with Kansas City in 2020. He was traded to the Miami Dolphins in 2022 for five draft picks and two players — one of the most significant wide receiver trades in NFL history. He set the single-game NFL receiving record with 303 yards against the Buffalo Bills in 2022. He led the NFL in receiving yards in 2022 with 1,710. His personal life — including a 2019 investigation involving his son that was closed without charges — generated significant media coverage. He remains the most electrically dynamic offensive player in the sport.
