In 2019, the fabled duo of Patrick Mahomes and Tyreek Hill combined for their first Super Bowl. The pair looked like the next QB-Receiver pairing to dominate the league for years to come. But alas, that would be the last milestone the two would hit together after Hill decided to pack his bags and move to the Miami Dolphins last season.
While Hill has since had his own share of success with the Dolphins, the WR sat at home as he watched his former QB lift the Super Bowl once again, albeit without Hill. But even after seeing Mahomes’ success this past year, Hill seems to have severed ties with his former teammate, as he dropped a sizzling bomb about the best QB in the NFL.

While Mahomes and Hill were great friends in their days with the KC Chiefs, the bond doesn’t seem to have entirely carried over, as Hill’s new comments may suggest. Talking about his aspirations to break the single-season record for receiving yards, Hill had high praise for his QB, Tua Tagovailoa. But in the midst of his praise, Hill threw a subliminal shot at his former teammate.
Update: #Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill says he wants break the record and become the first receiver in NFL history to have over 2,000 yards.

While Hill might be trying to praise his current teammate with some big words, his comments are especially odd considering the season that Patrick Mahomes just had.

In a season where he won the MVP, Super Bowl, and Super Bowl MVP, the Chiefs Star has more than ensured his position as the top dog at the QB position. But this marks just the beginning of Hill’s ‘open’ challenges to the GOAT across sports.

With Tyreek Hill’s trade to join the Miami Dolphins last season, the WR will now share his city with the latest superstar to descend upon Vice City – Lionel Messi. The soccer GOAT made a shocking move to Miami earlier this week, after announcing his decision to sail the seven seas and join Inter Miami in the MLS. But fellow Miami speedster Tyreek Hill has decided to extend an open challenge to Messi.
“I just wanted to say a welcome to the 305 to Lionel Messi – now we got two number 10’s, but I just wanted to know which one is faster?!”

Hill has cemented his position as one of the fastest players to ever enter the gridiron. But the GOAT has himself built a reputation as one of the quickest players to step onto the grassy plains of soccer. With both the stars wearing the #10 for their respective Miami franchises, it would certainly be interesting to see the two speedsters take on each other head-to-head. Whether that actually happens, however, still remains a pipedream.
