Tyreek Hill does not just want to prove Noah Lyles wrong, he wants to defeat him. During Monday's in-camp episode of Up & Adams, the Miami Dolphins wide receiver reopened his "world champions" feud with the champion sprinter, claiming he would beat Lyles even when wearing a mask (in reference to Lyles being revealed to have had COVID-19 while competing).
Later that day, Hill posted a photoshopped image of himself in a Team USA track-and-field outfit, claiming that he would enter the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles to do just that:

"Better hurry up and do it before your a*s gets too old," one implored.

Tyreek Hill calls himself better than Patrick Mahomes, believes Tua Tagovailoa will win MVP
There were multiple other things Tyreek Hill said in his interview with Kay Adams. At one point, he was asked about being named the NFL's number-one player of 2024. He concurred:
"Yeah, for sure! Pat is great. They won two back-to-back Super Bowls, they did their thing, right? Now you look at me. Two back-to-back 1,700 [-yard seasons], Pro Bowl, All-Pro - and I'm doing this at 5'8". A lot of people said I couldn't be a receiver, and here I am doing this."
He was also asked about how his teammate, Tua Tagovailoa, would fare in the 2024-25 season and responded:
"I can see a lot of improvements in [Tagovailoa]'s game. He's done a tremendous job on really honing in on his craft each and every offseason ... It's been a beautiful thing, like each and every year to be a part of his whole development; from year one I've been with him to year three."
He followed that up with a bold prediction:
"This year, he can be an MVP candidate once again and even win the thing, man, because he's just that nice."
