San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Marquise Goodwin and Kansas City Chiefs wideout Tyreek Hill are both speedsters and there have been questions raised this week about who is the faster of the two.
During a press conference, Wednesday Goodwin was asked who he thought was faster and although he declined to comment he did have a simple message.
Goodwin lifted up the sleeve on his shirt to reveal his tattoo of the Olympic rings, alluding to the fact that he competed in the long jump in the 2012 Olympics and is one heck of an athlete himself.
I didn’t say nothing,” Goodwin said via The San Francisco Chronicle. “You take that wherever you want to take it.”
Hill took exception to Goodwin's teammate Matt Breida being nicknamed “Brieda the cheetah” and he wants everyone to know there is only one cheetah and that's him.
“There’s only one cheetah in the league, just know that,” Hill said. “You can’t be a cheetah and run a 4.48, or whatever you run.”
Goodwin doesn't have a nickname like a cheetah but he was wearing cheetah boxers on Wednesday, maybe trying to make a point about what he thought of Hill's nickname.
Hill has looked like a cheetah out there during the first two weeks of the season while Goodwin has been sidelined with an injury. If Goodwin is able to go on Sunday maybe he and Hill should line up before the game and run a 100-yard dash and settle this argument once and for all.
