Raheem Mostert admitted he runs fast but surprised many fans when he said he was actually faster than Tyreek Hill. The 30-year-old RB joined the Dolphins in 2022. Cheetah also came into the team camp in the same year. Hill is easily one of the all-time best runners in the game. Previously, no other players made claims about moving ahead of him in running.

“Well, statistical wise, I am faster than Tyreek. You can actually check that on paper. I actually ran against him while we were in different heats in the indoor trial meet. He won the race,” Mostert said.
Why Tyreek Hill is known as Cheetah
The Miami Dolphins WR made a mark following his rookie year. He received the nickname ‘Cheetah’ for his speed. Many opposite teams fear him for his impact-making capability. There have been many games where Hill gained an advantage with his running game.
He has a great record in the NFL. The Super Bowl LIV winner found a name on the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team as the punt returner. Hill has been selected to six Pro Bowls in his six years in the league. It makes him an integral part of the team. It has been close to 50 years since the Dolphins won the Super Bowl title. Most of the new fans have never got a chance to witness their team kiss the prestigious ring.

Miami Dolphins’ eye win against Steelers
After six games, Mike McDaniel and his men won three, while also losing three games to stand third in AFC East. However, they are facing Pittsburgh Steelers, who defeated Tom Brady and his men, last week.
Tyreek Hill and his teammate Raheem Mostert would aim at nothing less than a win, as they try their hands at reaching the playoff. They will have to run fast and score more points. Hill would be happy to note he has a partner in a running game. Meanwhile, Mostert has already won many accolades for his impressive start. He would aim to emulate more from the experienced star and up his game.
