Earlier this year, Usain Bolt appeared on Fox Sports’ “Dan Patrick Show,” and offered to put up his Olympic medal against a Super Bowl ring in a potential race against Tyreek Hill.
The war of words between the 100-meter dash world-record holder and the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver continued this week. Hill called out the sprinting legend in an interview with TMZ Sports and agreed to wager his Super Bowl LIV ring against one of Bolt’s Olympic gold medals.
“Right now, it’s getting kind of personal. I’m not worried about no money, you know? You feel me?” Hill said. “Like right now, it’s about my ego right now. Because I feel like he just tried me.”
Bolt, who retired from track and field in 2017, told TMZ Sports in August that Hill was “probably scared” to bet his Super Bowl ring. However, that does not appear to be the case.
“Usain Bolt, like I say: You got my number, you got my Instagram, you got all that information. Like me and you can just figure this out,” Hill said. “Me and you can just meet at a local high school anywhere. I can come to Jamaica. We can get it poppin’ on the YouTube.”

Through the ups and downs of the Chiefs’ offense this season, wide receiver Tyreek Hill has been the most consistent contributor on the team. He leads in targets, receptions, receiving yards and touchdowns while also leading in yards from scrimmage.
Hill already has 932 receiving yards on 84 catches and eight scored touchdowns.
The Chiefs have seemingly found their mojo as they sit at 7-4.
