The Miami Dolphins can brag about having the fastest receiving corps in the league right now.
Jaylen Waddle and Tyreek Hill are an elite tandem in terms of speed, and they’re perennial big-play threats out in the open.
However, the Seattle Seahawks aren’t that far behind them with Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf, and the latter might want to make it even more evident.
As shared by Dov Kleiman, Metcalf has officially challenged Hill to a race.

The former Kansas City Chiefs star stated that he’d race his colleague for $50,000 to a charity of his choice, adding that Metcalf is actually scared to race him.
Hill is one of the prime trash-talkers in the league, so this should obviously come as no surprise.
Notably, he’s been clocked at a whopping 23.34 miles per hour, the fastest in NFL history thus far.
Nonetheless, Metcalf isn’t that far off, being clocked at 22.64 mph despite his size and weight.
Both players used to thrive as track runners, with Metcalf even training and trying out to pursue his dream of running in the Olympics, so this could be a race for the ages, that’s for sure.
Maybe, these two stars could partner up with a sponsor to make this a live-streamed event all over the world, and some might even consider paying to watch this like a PPV event or a fight.
Whoever wins will get the ultimate bragging rights as the fastest player the game of football has ever seen, and that’s most definitely worth risking that kind of money, especially if it goes to charity.
