News flash: Tyreek Hill is fast — and not just on the football field.

The Miami Dolphins wide receiver sped to victory on Saturday in the 60-meter dash at the USA Track and Field Masters indoor championship in Louisville.

Hill, 29, competed in the 25-29 age group and clocked a winning time of 6.70 seconds. It was his first race since 2014.

Nicknamed “Cheetah,” Hill is a four-time first-team All-Pro and has been selected to the Pro Bowl in each of his first seven NFL seasons.

After six seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, he broke the franchise records for receptions (119) and receiving yards (1,710) in his first season with the Dolphins in 2022.

Hill competed in the World Junior Championships in 2012 in Barcelona, where he was a member of the United States’ gold medal-winning 4×100-meter relay team. He also won an individual bronze in the 200-meter race.
