Track and field star Devon Allen made a bold claim that he is faster than any other player in the NFL.
The 28-year-old, who was a wide receiver in the Philadelphia Eagles practice squad, ran 13.04 seconds, the fourth-fastest 110m hurdles of 2023 at the USATF New York City Grand Prix in June. During an interview with TMZ, the American claimed nobody in the league is quicker than him, but did make an admission about some races in school involving Miami Dolphins star Tyreek Hill.
“I definitely am [quicker],” Allen said. “I’m not gonna roast [Tyreek Hill and DK Metcalf] because what they did [in track appearances] was impressive. I raced Tyreek Hill when I was in high school. We raced and he smoked me when we were in high school and DK Metcalf ran a 10.3 a couple years ago is super impressive for a guy that’s six-three, six-four, 225.
