Jaylen Waddle Sparks Competitive Spirit Between Him and New Teammate Tyreek Hill: “We’re For Sure Going to Race”

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle was full of praise and admiration for his new teammate and wide receiver Tyreek Hill. Waddle teased NFL fans with his recent wishes to have a raise with Hill, who is nicknamed the ‘Cheetah’. The acquisition of the former Chiefs wideout means the Dolphins possess one of the fastest wide receiver combinations in the NFL next season.

During a recent episode of the “I Am Athlete” podcast, Waddle did confirm that a race with Hill will take place down the line. He even jokes that he is already working on his legs the day after Hill’s blockbuster trade.

The Dolphins also did acquire former Niners RB Raheem Mostert and added more electrifying speed to their offense.
