Kansas City Chiefs star Tyreek Hill is accustomed to making opponents look foolish on the field, but the four-time Pro Bowler was on the losing end of a receiver battle last weekend.
Going up against high school wideout Tyreeq Styles Obichere, Hill got put on a poster at his own youth camp on Saturday:
Speaking to TMZ Sports on Wednesday, Hill had no problem praising Obichere for the play: "Keep that same energy. I'm proud of you" (starts at 1:18 mark):
Obichere told TMZ his game shares a lot in common with Hill: "Me and him, I feel like we run the same. We're both short, but, like, we move pretty fast for other people."
Hill doesn't exactly look like a traditional No. 1 wideout in 2020. He's only listed at 5'10", but his speed often overwhelms opposing defensive backs that he's been a dominant force with 14.6 yards per reception and 32 touchdown catches in 59 career games.
If Obichere's one-handed catch against Hill is any indication of his future, NFL teams will be keeping a close eye on him as he makes his way through the high school and college ranks in the coming years.
