Eagles wide receiver believes he is the fastest player in the NFL
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Devon Allen is fast, but he thinks he is the fastest player in the NFL. Allen ran the fourth fastest 110M hurdle time in the world and now says claims he is the fastest player in the NFL.
“I definitely am,” Allen told TMZ Sports recently when asked who is the fastest NFL receiver.
“I’m not gonna roast those guys because what they did was impressive,” Allen said, “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 6’4″, 6’3″, 225 [pounds]. But I think especially at the top level—top five, top 10 in the world—there’s a big gap in terms of just performance.”
Do you think Devon Allen is faster than Tyreek Hill or DK Metcalf? I wish we could get a race because it would be fun to see Allen go up against Hill. Hill has not commented yet, but there is no doubt that Hill will in fact answer, but what will he say?
