Olympic 100-meter dash champion Noah Lyles snubbed Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill on Friday after Hill recently said he would beat Lyles in a race.

In an interview with NBC Sports (h/t FinsXtra), Lyles acted like he didn't know who Hill was when he was mentioned, saying: "What's the cheetah guy from football? I can't remember his name. ... What's the football player who thinks he's fast name? Tyreek Hill."

Lyles seemed to be reacting to Hill saying in a recent interview on Up & Adams that he would "beat Noah Lyles" in a race:

At the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris this month, Lyles cemented his status as the fastest man in the world, winning the 100-meter dash with a time of 9.79 seconds.

Last year at the track and field world championships, Lyles may have made enemies of many team sport stars who play in the major North American sports leagues.

Per Chuck Schilken of the Los Angeles Times, Lyles used the NBA as an example and suggested the NBA champions should not be referred to as "world champions" since they don't actually compete against teams from across the world:

"You know what hurts me the most is that I have to watch the NBA Finals and they have 'world champion' on their head. World champion of what? The United States? Don't get me wrong. I love the U.S.—at times—but that ain't the world. That is not the world. We are the world. We have almost every country out here fighting, thriving, putting on their flag to show that they are represented. There ain't no flags in the NBA. We gotta do more. We gotta be presented to the world."

When Adams brought Lyles' comments up to Hill, he said, "Noah Lyles can't nothing after what just happened to him. To come out and pretend like he's sick, I feel that's like horseradish."

Hill was alluding to the fact that Lyles revealed after participating in the 200-meter event at the Olympics that he had tested positive for COVID-19.

Lyles was the favorite to win the 200m after winning the 100m, but he largely struggled and had to settle for bronze behind Botswana's Letsile Tebogo and American Kenny Bednarek.

He appeared to be exhausted after the race and had to be transported off the track in a wheelchair. A short time later, Lyles said on the NBC telecast that he was COVID-19 positive, and USA Track & Field later confirmed the diagnosis.

Despite perhaps not being at his best in Paris, Lyles still left the Olympics with two medals and became the first American to win the 100m at the Olympics since Justin Gatlin in 2004.

Hill has blazing speed in his own right and may very well be the fastest player in the NFL, but it would be considered a major upset if he were to even come close to beating an Olympic track star like Lyles in a race.
