Olympics legend Usain Bolt has warned a speedy NFL star against over-confidence after he was issued an audacious challenge.<\/p>\n
Last month Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill took a shot at Bolt, questioning the sprint king's speed over 40 yards.<\/p>\n
"Usain Bolt got out of the game for a reason, right?" Hill, 27, said. <\/p>\n
"He's old. He's washed up. And he can't see me at 40 yards. A 100-yard dash? Yes. That's what he do. But 40-yard dash, if y'all recording this, Usain Bolt, you cannot see me."<\/p>\n

I've texted him," Bolt said on the Dan Patrick Show. "If you keep talking, I just might show up."<\/p>\n https:\/\/twitter.com\/dpshow\/status\/1425844293021876226<\/a><\/p>\n Hill is one of the fastest players in the NFL, with his burst speed especially quick, so to make it fair for both, Bolt said he'd be up for a 70 metre contest.<\/p>\n "I'm good with 70 metres," Bolt said. "I still don't think he can take me at 40 metres. Even if he gets there, it's gonna be close.<\/p>\n "If I could get in shape, I proved already if I really, like, warm up and get ready to go, I can run fast."<\/p>\n Bolt is right to still feel confident, with the Jamaican eight-time Olympic gold medallist running 4.22 seconds in a 40-yard dash in a tracksuit, while Hill ran 4.29 before the 2016 NFL Draft.<\/p>\n "I told him] 'you got no chance!'"
