Tyreek Hill is widely considered to be the fastest player in the NFL, but his Miami Dolphins teammate Raheem Mostert seems to think that he would beat the star wide receiver in a race.
During a recent appearance on the Rich Eisen Show, Miami Dolphins star running back Raheem Mostert made it clear that he thinks he would prove to be the fastest member of the team if he and his speedy teammates raced each other. And that includes Tyreek Hill.
“Oh yeah, hands down, I win this race,” Mostert said on the show. “Look, I’ll tell it like this, Rich. When it comes to a race, right, Tyreek is fast, don’t get me wrong, but I can break down his speed. He has more of that quick twitch to him, too. For me, I’m more of a long-strider; once I get going, it’s hard to catch me, it’s hard to beat me. And same thing with J-Dub, he’s in between both Tyreek and I. It’ll be a good race for sure, but I think I got the upper advantage.”

But regardless of who would win a race between them, Mostert is confident that between him, Hill, Jaylen Waddle and De’Von Achane, they have the fastest roster in the NFL.
“It’s going to be neck and neck,” Mostert said of a hypothetical race. “I will say this: We are definitely the fastest team in the NFL, and if we had a (4×100 race), it didn’t matter what position each player was in, we’d win for sure.”
There’s certainly not much doubt in that claim.
