Tyreek Hill, known as the “Cheetah” for his incredible speed, is an American professional football wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins. Born on March 1, 1994, in Douglas, Georgia, Hill played college football at Garden City, Oklahoma State, and West Alabama before being drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL Draft. Initially known for his prowess as a return specialist, Hill quickly transitioned into one of the NFL’s most dangerous wide receivers. Over his eight seasons in the league, Hill has earned multiple Pro Bowl selections, a Super Bowl LIV victory with the Chiefs, and was named to the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team as a punt returner. After joining the Dolphins in 2022, he continued to shine, leading the league in receiving yards in 2022 and 2023. Hill’s combination of speed, hands, and playmaking ability makes him one of the most feared receivers in the NFL.
