Olympic legend Usain Bolt has called out Tyreek Hill for a race and he wants the wide receiver to put his Super Bowl ring on the line.
The big race folks across the country have been hoping to see could be on the way. Usain Bolt vs. Tyreek Hill on the track? Sign us up. Well, Bolt has come out and issued quite the challenge to the Kansas City Chiefs superstar.
While on the Dan Patrick Show, Bolt said he’ll race Hill if he puts his Super Bowl ring on the line. At the same time, Bolt said he’ll put up one of his gold medals if Hill agrees to things. Will this happen?

The two friends are no strangers to trash talking, as they’ve exchanged some playful jabs on Twitter. In late July, Hill even told Bolt to ‘stop hiding’ from him in terms of a race. Well, Bolt is doing the opposite here, as he wants Hill to lace up his shoes and make things interesting on the betting front.
If Hill is so confident that he can beat Bolt in a race, then putting up his Super Bowl ring should be no problem. If there’s zero doubt in his mind that he’ll win, then the stakes won’t matter. Bolt is clearly confident, as he’s ready to put a gold medal on the line.
The challenge for a 70-meter dash has officially been put on the table by Bolt. With Hill in the middle of training camp and focused on Week 1 of the NFL season, we may not see the two go at it until next spring. Should it happen, though, fans should get their popcorn ready: it’d be quite the event.
