Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill is one of the most exciting players in the NFL, and there’s no doubt that he’s a threat to score on every touch. But is he really “scary”?

Recently, Shannon Sharpe, the former NFL tight end and co-host of ‘Undisputed,’ got people’s attention with his comments about Miami Dolphins superstar, Tyreek Hill. “He’s the scariest receiver in the NFL,” Sharpe said on First Take. “He’s more scary than Jerry [Rice].” Sharpe’s description of Hill as ‘scary’ left fans and analysts wondering whether it was genuine praise or just for viewership.

Moss’ comments are telling in the fact that Sharpe was more concerned about getting attention than actually praising Hill. While Sharpe did call Hill ‘scary,’ he also said that he had more potential than any other NFL player, suggesting he wasn’t taking away from Hill’s abilities.

Whatever you may think of Sharpe’s comments, one thing is certain: Hill is a player to watch out for! He may very well end up becoming the greatest receiver in NFL history. So don’t be surprised if you look back in a few years and see him among the all-time greats.
