It started when reporters were talking to Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman in the locker room on Wednesday.
Asked by our own Pete Sweeney if he could beat fellow wide receiver Tyreek Hill in a 100-yard dash, Hardman first expressed confidence — but then backed down a little.
“Me and Tyreek? 100 [yards]?” he replied. “I’ll give you everything you want in a 100. 40... he’s got me. But 100? I think I could pick up a little bit in 100. But I won’t put it past him. He probably would get me.
