The former Super Bowl champion, who is popularly known as the ‘Cheetah’, is currently leading the season with 1,148 receiving yards through 10 games. No wonder why fans call him one of the best.

This offseason, he relocated to a new franchise after spending six successful seasons with the Chiefs, but that change doesn’t seem to have affected his performance.

Special shoutout to Tua Tagovailoa who vested hopes in his No 1 prospect, connecting with accurate passes so far in the season. Recently, Fox Sports asked fans to fill in the blank for the statement, “The best WR in the NFL right now is.”.

For anyone who looks at this statement, one of the most prominent names that appear in the top five is Tyreek Hill. But the Alabama product seemed to have other prospects in the mind.

Hill surprised everyone, appearing to answer this random question. At first, he named his current teammate Jaylen Waddle without mentioning himself anywhere near.

When fans believed this to be his final answer, Hill went on to amuse the netizens with more tweets. Trent Sherfield, Cedric Wilson, River Cracraft, and Mecole Hardman were some of the other names he called publicly.

Hardman’s name came out as a surprise for everyone. Technically, the Chiefs’ wideout is placed fourth in his own team and Hill naming this player more or less seemed like showing love to his former teammate. Even in terms of productivity, Hardman is far behind Cheetah with 297 yards.

When Tyreek Hill voiced to become one of the best

For any athlete playing in the NFL, it is a matter of pride. Often players get sentimental about that kind of stardom. But Hill has bigger plans. He had a splendid time in Kansas City, and now his new home is showering immense love for his services.

“I’m always looking to get better. you know, a lot of people may text me, a lot of people may give me the glory and the shine, but I’m not about that,” Hill said in an interview last season. “You got to be consistent in what you’re doing. You know those same people who showed you love this week. If you make a bad play next week, they’re gonna hate you.”
