Tyreek Hill is a fast, fast man. He’s so fast that the Atlanta Falcons watched helplessly Friday night as he blew past three defensive backs en route to a 69-yard touchdown.
Seriously, there were three defenders trailing him on this play, and to be honest quarterback Patrick Mahomes could have led him quite a bit more on this throw.

Don’t get me wrong. That was still a laser beam throw by Mahomes. But it just goes to show how fast this receiver is, that even one of the strongest arms in the league couldn’t quite lead him enough.
I guess this is why the Kansas City Chiefs were so willing to trade Alex Smith earlier this offseason.
