Noah Lyles' response to Tyreek Hill on beating him in a race aligns that the Miami Dolphins star is just chasing clout and if serious, he should get in touch with his agent.

The exchange of words between Noah Lyles and NFL Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill may not be ending anytime soon and the latest response from track's fastest man proves just that.

It all began when Hill made a statement that he would defeat Lyles in a race and challenged the 100-meter sprinter.

This was following Lyles' Paris 2024 Olympic 100m triumph and settling for a bronze medal in the 200m event, which was later confirmed by the US Track and Field that the American speedster tested positive for COVID two days before the race, thus could have affected his chances of performing at his best.

"Noah Lyles can't do nothing after what just happened to him. To come out and pretend like he's sick, I feel that's like horseradish," said the Miami Dolphins star reacting to Lyles' COVID claims.

In response to Hill's comment on @NightcapShow_ podcast with @ShannonSharpe and @ochocinco, the Olympic gold medalist had this to say:

“Tyreek is just chasing clout. Anytime somebody fast comes up, he says he wants to race them. If he really wanted to race people, he would’ve shown up like D.K. Metcalf. The man raced in the 60m this year in the Masters division.

"The man dodges smoke. I don’t have time for that… If he’s truly serious about it – I’m not talking about you just talking on the internet and you ain’t actually coming to me and talking to my agent and saying let’s set something up – if you’re seriously about it, you’ll see me on the track,” he concluded.

Hill is a former track and field star in high school but transitioned to football and started primarily as a return specialist as a rookie, before focusing strictly on playing wide receiver. Following his rookie year, he received the nickname "Cheetah" in reference to his speed.

Meanwhile, Lyles is one of the fastest men in history across the 60m, 100m, and 200m, having several global titles and medals in his name across the events.
