There has been an ongoing debate about Tyreek Hill and DK Metcalf in the NFL community. Both of them are arguably the fastest players in the league. As a result, both have claimed that they are faster than the other. However, one person who is in a good position to talk about speed is Justin Gatlin.

The legendary American Olympian Justin Gatlin was asked on the I am Athlete podcast about who he thinks has an advantage in the race between DK and Tyreek Hill.

Justin Gatlin took a deep breath and answered, DK Metcalf. This answer may come as a surprise to many Tyreek fans worldwide, but that’s what Justin thinks.

Even though Justin gave his take on the ongoing debate between Tyreek and DK, only a race between them can provide the answer that all NFL fans are looking for. Tyreek Hill has already challenged DK Metcalf to a race, but DK hasn’t responded to it yet!

Prior to the statement by Justin Gatlin, DK claimed he was faster than Tyreek

A few weeks ago DK Metcalf, the wide receiver of the Seattle Seahawks appeared on the Club Shay Shay Podcast. Shannon Sharpe, the host of the podcast had asked DK about who is faster between him and Tyreek. DK didn’t hesitate a bit and was quite confident in himself, that he is faster than the former Chiefs’ receiver.

DK’s statements deserved a response from Tyreek Hill, and he was quick to it. Tyreek openly challenged DK Metcalf through one of his tweets and kept a winning prize of $50,0000.
