I'll be grinding all my life all my life. been running all my life. sacrifice plus will pay the price wanna. slice got to roll a dice that's why all. my life I'll be grinding all my life. hello welcome to a very special edition. of Club Shay Shay Live on YouTube I am. your host I'm also the proprietor of. club shayshay and the guy that's.

stopping about for conversation on the. drink today really doesn't need an. induction but I'll give him one anyway. he's been selected to the Pro Bowl every. year he's been in the NFL he's a Super. Bowl champ he's a three-time first team. All-Pro about the B4 he's a member of. the 2000 all decade team as a punt. returner one of the fastest men to ever. play the game I believe he's currently. the fastest man playing the game the. most dangerous man in the NFL and he's. not a defensive player and he doesn't. wear 300 pounds ladies and gentlemen. Tyrique Hill also name is cheetah how.

you doing doing all right man I am doing. all right I just wish you had that same. energy when you said I had no hands but. that's not what I said that's not what I. said I said you're not a natural hand. catcher come on man you got hands. obviously you got your right receiver. they just don't pay you 30 million for. no reason okay okay we'll get we'll get. to that a little bit come on we're gonna. get to talking today we'll get to. talking we're gonna get to talking about. cheetah boat you got the name for your. grandma how did you get that how did you. come up with cheatable.

well growing up my whole family called. me Bo bean I had several nicknames Bo. Bean but Bo kind of kind of stuck with. me you know throughout my whole entire. life everybody knows Bo Jackson right. you know Bo Jackson was a incredible. athlete he did it all so once I got to. the league man you know Bo's already. taken right you know so we so my. grandmother like she kind of came up. with something she was like you know. what we're gonna call you cheetah bow. you know what I'm saying because I'm a. huge animal guy I love animals and it.

fits it definitely fits. when what was your expectations because. when you first got into the league well. I will give you this Tariq you've turned. yourself into a Hillary receiver because. when you first got to the league you. will mainly returner kick return to punt. returner they bring you in a couple of. plays on third down but you worked your. tail off you run the route tree you run. out the end to dig the gold the shake. all of that right what was it that you. said you know what I'm more than a. gadget guy I'm more than a returner.

well for me man like I would like so my. parents my grandparents they did a great. job of raising me and just believing in. who I am as a person and as a player you. know um I grew up in a small town you. know where a lot of people you know may. not have the same opportunity that I may. have had but you know I I knew once I. got the opportunity to be able to play. on on a big stage on a big platform I. had to make it count right you know so. I wanted to to be different you know I I.

like there's a lot of guys in this. league that play receiver but I tell. guys look I play offense man like you. can't coach what I do man right you feel. me so for me. for somebody to just sit there and just. call me a gadget guy like I want you to. add more to that just say he's an. offensive weapon right like do that you. know what I mean I'd rather you call me. that instead of just a gadget guy right. and I and I still don't consider myself. one of the best receivers because. you know um. I can't do what some of those other guys.

do but I know what I can do I can play. football and I'm smart but they can't do. what you do exactly it's exactly right. which is why I say like you can't coach. what I do you think so. that's. it to to each his own right I'm looking. at you and last week you didn't win the. ball game but you put up a monster that. you had nine catches for a buck 46 and a. touchdown you watch the team that the. Raiders played and Devonte Adams y'all. have very different ball games right he. goes for buck 77 and two touchdowns when. you play a team and you see the previous.

week a wide receiver goes off are you. thinking. your boy about to eat. uh yeah sometimes man. um especially but like you say like me. and D.A we got different games you know. what I'm saying like he's more of a. finesse guy he's more of a a Rel of a. release guy yeah you know what I'm. saying so our game is is so different. man so. I like I'm I wouldn't sit here and say. that the charges you know got got a bad.

defense because they allowed D.A to go. for 177 but what I will say is. um I'm fortunate enough to play with a. good quarterback you know and a great. head coach who's able to put me in. position to make plays right and. we've been able to see that all year so. I don't want to sit here and take all. the credit for that when are you. surprised when guys try to press you. because like I said you wanted probably. five or six fastest guys to ever played. the NFL right I believe you're currently. the and we're going to talk about this. because there's a lot of guys that want.

to challenge you say nah it ain't. Tyrique and Shannon oh you need to stop. saying this time because it's not so. they've been coming on my show setting. me straight they've been hitting me I'm. like well damn. so but are you surprised when you see a. guy you line up in the slot or you line. up outside the numbers are you surprised. when you see a guy like bruh are you. really about to do this man believe this. or not I rarely see press like I haven't. seen press in like two years so it's. crazy like during this whole entire year. like when we see press like me and Jalen. we automatically think it's covered too.

right you feel me and most like 99 of. the time it is covered too right you are. like it's some form of zone right so we. we don't see press and when we do see. press you know the referee is holding. his hands up like this like touchdown. you make him smell deodorant like you. may finally smells deodorant man. it's a long road trip I've been played. 14 years and I never had a situation. where even when I was playing with the. Ravens we come out west and then we stay. what have you been able to do so how how.

does that because we're routine yeah you. when you're at home you go to practice. you go you know you have meetings you go. to practice get your massage you get. your massage you go back home right but. on the road team is on the road trip. especially two weeks. what do you do how do you get how do you. get into a rhythm to make sure you're. still able to function at a high level. well this is kind of new to me also as. well too because in Kansas City we. didn't do nothing like this so for me. I've been able to like fly my whole. family out I made sure that you know um. I got the same schedule with seeing my.

family seeing my mom seeing my sister. seeing the kids. um seeing everybody you know who I. regularly see during the week right and. um as far as practice wise I try to make. everything the same. um so that's rep count that's. um making sure that uh I study plays. during the night and stuff like that so. everything typical everything is. typically the same. um and as a team you're just doing it on. the road yeah yeah we just doing it on.

the road and as a team we've just been. spending time together so we had a we. had a comedian come in on Wednesday. right was he good we had like four. comedians oh wow a different of. different races okay so uh I believe. tonight we doing something as a team. right that's unbelievable that's great. that's trying to spend just find a way. to spend time together as a team right. you know because we're a young team. right and and get to know each other. outside of football and yeah yeah yeah. yeah yeah yeah so that right there is. like a whole new level man so but I feel.

like once I got to this team like this. team already had it you know they just. needed uh they just needed a voice. inside of the locker room so. I mean once I got here I kind of. accepted that. I'm looking at your numbers you still. have a chance you need to average 100 I. think 124 yards over the next five games. and you'll break Calvin Johnson's record. of the 1964. when you got to Miami what what was your. goals what were you think you know a lot. there's been a lot of talk I was not in.

that I said tyreik is going to be Tyree. now I don't know if he's going to have a. whole bunch of 60 70 yards and damn lo. and behold you got a bunch of 60 60 or. 70 yard touchdowns what what was what. was your expectations of when you got to. Miami. to be who I am man like I I feel like. you know. everything happens for a reason right. you know I feel like as great as I am. you know. my guy would never steer me into a.

direction that I don't need to go in. okay you feel me so. once the idea of Miami came across my. mind you know and other teams because I. I was an avid Miami fan right and other. teams were like calling I was like no. it's a no-brainer Miami you know what. I'm saying because I've seen what coach. Matt uh I I've seen what coach McDaniel. can do you know I'm saying I know that. he's an offensive Guru and I know and I. knew that tool was like he was him right.

people people don't realize who it was. him like coming out of college he was. him yes he just had some bad he just had. some bad you know situations right you. know what I'm saying his first few. seasons so I got hurt got Nick got hurt. you know what I'm saying his hip so he's. not able to throw the ball high he want. to throw it so I was like bro I'm gonna. go here. and. I'ma have the best I'm gonna have the. best year in my career right I'm gonna. see it so when I got there that's how me. and Coach my daddy was talking about his. life bro we gonna get 2 000 bro really.

yeah that's the first thing he said to. me he didn't say hey welcome he's like 2. 000. first thing he said I'm like. hey you must be reading my mind like. let's go he was thinking that to her. automatically man because like we all. have goals like I'm not one of them. dudes to get paid and just [ __ ] [ __ ] a. dog right I wanna I wanna continue to. get better all right find ways to get. better and like I say everything. happened for a reason my receiver coach. is West worker yeah West worker like he. literally holds me accountable every day. right you feel me and as a player like I. need that sometimes because I'm lazy.

like I know I can get lazy I can get you. know complacent in where I am and he'll. be like I need you to wake up I need you. to realize like we only got one shot to. do this all right so let's get back to. work let's focus on the details and. fundamentals and let's keep grinding. baby because we need you and as a as a. player I need that sometimes so I feel. like every coming here to Miami man it. really helped my career because I needed. like a different change of scenery and. it's paying off about that you really. had a great situation you had a great.

offense with Andy and you're dialing it. up you had weapons around you so they. really couldn't double team you because. you had Kelsey you had me cold for a. couple times you had uh uh Sammy Watkins. you had Robinson so you've had guys. around you you had a great offense. and you seem like dang man Tyrique in. Kansas City my homes you have the. quarterback. nothing needs to be said about him right. when did you think that there's a. possibility that you know what man I. might not finish my career in here in.

Kansas City. hey it got like that probably like mid. last season you feel me like. I'm the type of guy like I I love. playing ball and I love you know being. by the team because football is a team. sport correct and it would be some games. where like I get two Targets I get three. targets and we'll go into meetings and. my coach would be like hey we got to get. you involved we got to get you involved. and I'm like no y'all need to get me. involved yesterday don't tell me about. it today exactly like you know like you.

know how to you like so I'm calling my. agent every week after they say some. some crazy stuff like that like bro I. gotta get out of here so let me ask you. a question because obviously you're not. a guy that bites your tongue and. obviously so you go did you go to EB did. you go to Andy like bro what's up I mean. during the week of practice y'all. throwing me all these balls I get into. the game and I get two Targets no no no. no I'm not like that I'm not I'm not. gonna go to anybody I'm gonna go to my. position coach because I deal with him. more than I deal with them right you. feel me and I'm gonna go talk to him but.

what if he ain't relaying the messages. that you would need relayed. and I'm out of there you see where I'm. at now I'm out of there man but I love. EB I love Coach Henry you know those. guys really helped me get to where I am. today you know I'm saying as a young. player I feel like they really developed. me right and like shaped me to who I am. today. so. did you did you did you have a. conversation with my home Patrick did. you say. I'm sorry bro but I'm out uh I just need. I need to do this this is not anything. to have to do with you this is about me.

and what I think is the best for my. career so check this out I talked to. Andy and I talked to uh. p.m I talked to both of them catch up. with homes so I'm like so I talked to. Coach Andy Reid and I'm like coach like. I don't even need to be the highest paid. receiver I just want to be taken care of. and I want to stay you know with Kelsey. I want to stay with Pat I want to stay. with my brother so you had the. conversation to end it look I had that. conversation I'm here let's take care of. your boy man just make me 25 M's you.

know what I'm saying match me with AJ. Brown and I'm cool with that he was like. okay okay okay so we get back there they. they got it to 25 M's but the guaranteed. money wasn't it wasn't looking right. right man Drew going back and forth with. that I'm like Drew it's fine I Drew's. like no we can get more we can get more. you know how agents are of course and. that's what he should do then I talked. to Pat he was like yeah yeah yeah yeah. he's saying the same thing bro we got to. get you back we got to get you back I'm. like yeah bro I want to come back bro. like let's make something happen but. make the money right but make the money. right like just make the guaranteed.

money sound sound right at least right. yeah bro like that 100 million and you. give me 20 million guaranteed that don't. make sense exactly exactly okay so then. like Miami had called it was like look. we just gonna go all out we're gonna. give you 72 million guaranteed and then. I was like bro I can't turn that down no. no you can't do that I can't change with. no state income tax either with no state. income tax I'm basically living in my. house for free right now I'm like yeah. we can't turn that down right great. weather did you did you go to did you go.

to Andy and ask them can they match this. or were you were your mind already said. I gave you every opportunity I didn't. really need 30. I didn't really need. what I got but I just needed you to make. the guarantee yeah we did so we did so. we did we actually told we actually told. Kansas City what Miami offered in Kansas. city was like nah we just gonna trade. them so then I was like okay but like. that that really goes to show how. valuable I am to them right you know. what I'm saying I posed into how. valuable I I could be to Miami something. like just sign the deal let's get it. done and then we just gonna make some.

shake man right so here I am today. no hard feelings no hard feelings no. hard feelings man like I feel like you. can't mix. I I can't mix my hard feelings in with. the business side of all of that I still. got love for all of them boys Patrick. Kelsey uh Beach coultry EB I still love. them you know what I'm saying but just. know when we if we do plan them if we do. see them it's showtime. you try to go for two three bills what.

you try to go for you play Let's just. say for think about me you play the. Chiefs in the playoffs you try to go for. three they better have two people on me. that's all I know. cheetah the cheetah will be arriving in. Kansas City or in Miami I don't care. where I'll be at so let me ask you this. at mid-season. they asked NFL execs they had to vote. MVP offensive player of the year. you got the most votes for offensive. player of the year. if you were to get 2 000 yard receiving. forget offensive player of the year.

they've been received to win that award. should you be the MVP. no I don't I don't. I don't I mean I don't think so but for. me I really don't look at awards and. just go crazy like that and just be like. I think I deserve this. like I've been in this I've I've. basically accomplished everything that I. want to accomplish I feel like won a. Super Bowl but I I can do more I want to. continue winning Super Bowls the award. thing that's cool and all but I want to. continue to win with my team you know.

I'm saying I feel like nothing can you. know outweigh winning another. championship right you know MVP is cool. winning MVP is cool that's cool for my. kids that's cool for my family that's. cool for you know the Legacy yeah yes. but but once I win the like but winning. the Super Bowl. it just hit differently man I I saw a. man like there's something different. when you come into the room that's like. that's Super Champ Tyree Hill not Provo. Tyreek Hill that's Super Bowl champs. Super Bowl like yeah yeah they say yeah.

they say your name a little bit. different they do they do it does you. like okay. look so yeah. okay. you started off I had Steve Smith. um somebody I know somebody we go back. to 2001 when he made his first pro bowl. and he and I were discussing and. shot a clock baby. I'm listening oh you're listening I'm. locked in Okay so.

there you go. shot o'clock Tony. so he and I was having a conversation I. asked him to list his top five receivers. uh-huh he didn't put you in his top five. you saw a guy like you ain't got the. weekend there. is there has there is there any beat. between you and I mean because y'all. kind of like the same time he's not as. fast as you obviously right but physical.

tough tenacious guys uh turn themselves. he came in he was a return. exactly he was a returner return a kick. returner made the Pro Bowl that's how. you got it taught himself to become a. great receiver exactly also like you did. so. did you take offense to him leaving you. off the top five receivers nah not not. for real man you know why why. because I made 30 M's a year bro why not. why would I why why would I value.

another man's opinion. but I will say once he once he tried me. with the No Hands part I was like bro. like you're gonna try me right like. because I feel like I got some of the. best hands. you know in the lead you know granted me. not being the biggest you know I'm. saying I feel like I got some of the. best hands yeah but you but here's the. thing I think when you you uh. like you said you look at I look at. Devante and I look at Devonte and he's. like he would be more of a prototypical. because he's 6-1 uh annual long angular. body long limb and he's just he's fluid. you are power you're a power receiver.

you're explosive right right which which. the NFL has never seen before right you. feel me but I feel like I I can catch. with those guys just like those guys and. kids when I when I look at you Tyrique. I've been around a lot of guys that. could run but they were track guys I was. in the league with Sam Grady he won the. silver medal in the 84 Olympics uh uh. James jet he was on the gold medal. winning team in 92. I've seen guys but. I've never seen a guy built like you you. are a track guy.

you are but you you have track speed but. you're a football player when those. really really go when I Ronaldo near my. when I look at you I don't see track I. know you have track Elites elite elite. speed but I look at you and I look at. the way you're built. your football player those guys were. track guys playing football you're a. football player that can run track. exactly man like I. I don't know it's just God giving yeah. or maybe my mom and dad just got some. crazy jeans. I don't know your mom was over there she.

would pretend if she was your sister. because I walked in I'm like you're the. boss you're like nah I'm your sister I. said well y'all y'all know you I knew. y'all was related and she literally like. okay yeah do you ever feel more. that way you get it for you got it from. you. okay. but I'll say she faster than that so. you played so what position did you play. in high school you were receive in high. school you were ready I'd be a running. back receiver I did it all and track.

obviously tracked so I didn't start. running track to like 10th grade like a. lot of people think I ran track my whole. life I'm like no I'm a country boy man I. just I just ran track because the. football coach well you always the. fastest fast right now I wasn't always. the fastest believe this or not when I. was in 10th Grade we had kids that was. faster than me. yeah so what are they doing now where. are they now I need to know they they. got to be like you know you know how I. be man like every Hood got like these. kids that really not disciplining not. discipline and they just don't make it. up right you know I'm saying I was just.

wanted to look I was just one of the. fortunate ones who listened to my mom. right a lot and made it out so. I want tyreke's Hills and you can put. yourself in there if you want to or you. can leave yourself out like I don't want. to put myself don't ask me about no top. five give me I need it I need it I can't. man. I can't because like the way because the. way that I great it is bro I feel like. if if you look at all 32 football teams.

right right. they go with your top five right there. one eight through 32 right there because. man you crazy stop it bro bro. giving given the circumstances if you. put a guy in a certain system they can. go crazy. I disagree everybody cannot be Justin. Jefferson I don't care I can take I can. take guys name name a guy no I don't. want to name any guys but I'm saying. that's that's What Makes You unique. everybody let me ask you a question he.

said skills. let me ask you a question okay how many. 30 million guys are there how many 30. million dollar guys that's what you told. me to begin with you told me I make 30. million why they gonna give somebody 30. mil they ain't got no hands all right. then so why they didn't get Devonte. Adams 30 million in he turned down less. money to go to he turned that he took. less money to go to MMA I know you're. making excuses no no no no no Tyree I. can put Christian Curtis in my top five. because I think because I believe he's. the top five receiver in this league. you're looking at me crazy yes bruh yes.

yes yeah so how much I I will move along. let's argue let's argue today I'm. standing up for my guys I I get it stand. up for the receivers but there there. there's levels to this I know levels to. it man given the circumstances I feel. like if you put if you put me in Atlanta. right now I feel like not no no no I'm. talking about the quarterback that. quarterback obviously the quarterback. plays a big role yeah yeah yeah yeah. I get I I give you that but everybody.

doesn't have the ability to do what you. do and to do what Devante does and do. what Justin Jefferson Stefan Diggs. that's not true that is not true you say. I put it I can list 15 guys. and do what they can go out there and. put up a thousand yard 1500 yards but a. thousand yards is not anything that's 62. that's 64 yards a game that's not. anything so what's your argument but I'm. saying there's there's level there's a. reason why that you get get what you do. there's a reason why Jefferson and those. guys and Devonte there's more I feel.

like. you just can't list five guys and just. say here's a top five lists that's just. like saying well if somebody would have. I could give somebody Michael Jackson's. producer and he could have been Michael. Jackson that's a lie I can give somebody. the same songs that I gave big and Tupac. and they can be big and Tupac that's a. lie. I'm not I'm not hearing the argument. right now. there are fish there are 15 qualified. like people be forgetting about right so. you believe me they be forget about. Brandon Cook they be forgetting about.

Mike Evans they be forgetting about. Keenan Allen the guys like that like who. really deserve it but here's the thing. I'm not saying they're not Tyrique I. think you're missing the argument what. I'm saying I'm not saying they're not. good receivers but they're tops to this. they're great companies but everybody. ain't Google everybody's not Apple you. can't say well those guys are Googling. Apple though Brandon Cook Keenan Allen. they not like that okay okay oh my God. Mike Evans they're not like that to you. I'm not said Tyree you're missing my. point I'm not missing you yes you are.

those guys are top five receivers so let. me get let's Jamal Justin receivers yes. all of us top five that's why I say it's. one through thirty two like so there are. no top five quarterbacks you believe. that everyone I see quarterback what's. the difference. why so if I gave if I gave so you said. if I gave let's just say for the sake of. argument Baker Mayfield he gonna turn. into Tom Brady yeah if he playing with.

me yeah come on now if he playing with. me yeah. okay that's all day you see what he did. last night game winning Drive 98 yards. went crazy now how you want it Baker. Mayfield what a dub hey Becca Mayfield. I'm on your side bro come on. you get. you keep telling me you got it 30. so. what let me ask you a question when they. cut the check and you get this big this. big signing bonus and you look you don't. know maybe I'm saying they gave you a. check obviously the direct deposit what.

was the first thing Tyree wouldn't got. well I I'm not I'm not too much of a. crazy spender but uh we bought a we. bought a nice size estate down in in. Miami okay uh spend a pretty depending. day on that and that was about it man. don't call you like car guy you know no. car nobody I mean I mean I bought my car. like later down the road I bought a 720. McLaren okay. oh. so yeah I bought a 720 uh. and that's pretty much it man that's it.

that's it I'm a simple guy I drive a. minivan to work every day so a minivan. yeah seriously I drive a minivan to work. every day tell me it's a sprinter no. it's a minivan it's a Dodge Caravan with. the wood panel on the side come on now. talk to me. police if y'all see this man in this. minivan pull him over Windows 10 and. everything. come on reek come on bro.

I understand you try to you try to lay. low key you know you don't want nobody. to know that yeah you gotta lay low. so when you got to Miami. obviously you wanted to win. what was what was your number what was. your number one thing what was the. number one thing Tyreek wanted to. accomplish because you got to see on. your chest and that's saying something. for a guy that leaves one Locale comes. to another Locale and gets to see on the. ship quarterbacks obviously quarterback. normally quarterbacks have to see on. their chest but for you and if I'm not.

mistaken I could be wrong did you had. did you ever have to see on your chest. in Kansas City I did. um my rookie year uh I was a special. teams guy okay they gave me the C for. being a special team okay so yeah so now. you wanna so you go to Miami and you get. to see you so what was what was tyreek's. goal what would what did you hope to. accomplish not only team wise but. individually. well I I always look at the big picture. things okay and then you know I I feel.

like like you say everybody has value in. this league and not many people can do. what other people can do right you know. so. signing the deal in Miami you know yes. that was great but. I wanted to do something different I. wanted to prove to people that receivers. are just as valuable as quarterbacks. okay okay you feel me yeah. um we even seen it with Stefan Diggs. what he did was Allen yes we seen it. with Jamal Chase bro with Boro.

and. you know what I'm saying as great as. those quarterbacks are you know they. still need somebody to mail them out. here and there you feel right yes so I I. just wanted to just show people the. future of what receivers are going to. look like you feel me I mean they may. not look like me but maybe just how. valuable we are man like just start. paying I think a receiver that in the. right system can look like you that what. you just told me no they can Jalen water.

for real there it is right there. there it is he can do exactly everything. I can you feel me and I'm teaching them. everything that that I've been taught so. he can they don't feel water like they. fear you though hey no don't start dude. don't start don't knock on Jalen no I. think he's phenomenal I think he's a fun. he's a phenomenal it's nice that yeah I. mean you've really never had anybody and. I know Nicole I mean it's closed Nicole. but to have somebody like that level. speed like when you and McCoy was on the.

field like damn who we just got to get. deep just take off running safety just. get back as far as you can. that. I don't know if they've ever been two. receivers on a team I mean I don't know. like like I said I was in the lead with. Sam graded and and and and Willie Galt. was on on the Raiders and they were just. just run by people just just throw the. gold ball yeah it was crazy. everybody Willie from Georgia also he. went to Griffin.

um so you go to you go to you go to. Miami and you're like okay. I I got I need to show them why they. gave me 30 mil. you go to you go to camp. OTAs and you start so what what was your. goal what what did you what what did you. want your teammates to see about re when. you first when I first got in there man. I I hey I I told Xavier and hired the. first day I said I'm going at you every. day and one-on-one training camp I need. the best because that's just me when I. was in KC I did the same thing with all.

the DBS right you can ask the DB coach I. I called out everybody DBS and all you. know what I'm saying that's probably why. they got rid of me because I didn't know. my hamstring hurt today and I talked. trash so every day one-on-ones I was. like Xavier Howard I need that come on. let's go man you we we first off and. we're gonna set we said we're gonna set. the tone okay it's only right I like. that I like that because because check. this out the way that coach McDaniel. runs his team meetings he's going to. start with that two of the best guys on. the team right highest paid guys on the.

team going at it and they're not afraid. of competition so I'm like yeah once I. let these guys know that I'm about my. business and I work hard I practice hard. and I practice fast and I'm not here. just for the money they're going to. realize that hey we need to lock in with. this guy and you know follow follow him. you know what I'm saying and allow me to. lead and that's and those guys have is. that is that what you wanted you wanted. more of a leadership role oh yeah yeah I. see myself I I see myself more as a.

right as a leader right you feel me. because I like I feel like I can do that. right so. so. some took it as shade some took it as. you're taking a shot. and Patrick when you're saying said or. saying that tour throws the prettiest. ball to I mean you spoke in such glowing. terms and a lot of people like well man. you know man he's just trying to Hype. his guy up that's his guy he's trying to. give him some confidence and some like.

man you can hype a guy without you see. anybody I think he throwing shade what. would you hoping to accomplish by. praising tool and giving him that credit. although you had never played with him. before. well I wasn't really looking to. accomplish anything you know everybody. knows that Pastor Mahomes is on a. different level with his quarterback. play right you know he's going to be. special you know no matter who's there. playing receiver for him you feel me. he's an alien like that you know my. whole thing was you know every. quarterback is good at something right.

you feel me right Pat has a strong arm. he's accurate but what I've seen from. Toy is you know he may not have the. strongest arm right but just know when. you turn that ball it's gonna be in the. center of your chest every time like. it's going to be right there catchable. every single time you know what I'm. saying and. like I'm I'm not here to throw shade at. nobody right right and Pat know that he. know I love him like a brother no matter. what so you know how the media is. they're just gonna take stuff and run. with it you grew up you're from Georgia.

I'm from Georgia uh you're a little. further south than I am you went to you. went to Coffee County High School I. think y'all the Trojans are you on the. truck trophy kind of trolls Douglas and. uh when when Tyrique was growing up what. did Tyree want to do did you ever think. about being a professional athlete like. I'm gonna run track I'm gonna be in the. Olympics what do you want to do what do. you want to be. you really want to know what I want to. be I want to know. come on tell me uh so believe this or. not man uh my senior year I had I had.

all kind of options of what I wanted to. do I didn't have the grades coming out. so I had to go to Juco so but. I had ran track my final year and I. didn't have no football scholarships. right you feel me so ran track I ran. fast I ran like a 10-1 and I ran a 20.1. and all these big colleges like LSU. Alabama Florida State they was all hit. me up like hey come run track for us and. I was like I don't got the grade so they. was like okay you can go to Juco route.

right so that's how I learned about the. Joker ride right so I'm like okay I can. go Juco and then I can come to y'all. that was like yeah so they recommended. the Juco called Garden City Community. College in Kansas in Kansas all these. schools it was like go to Garden City. Run Track there and then you can. transfer to us once you get your grades. up so I go to Garden City once I get to. Garden City I'm I'm just there for track. right but Garden City they got a. football team I don't know if you know. Nick Marshall he was a Auburn quarter. yeah Auburn quarterback yeah yeah yeah. yeah so Nick he was one of my boys I.

knew Nick from playing against Nick in. high school okay Nick was like Hey Reed. man you should come play football so I. go out and play football you know I'm. saying I'm like I started have you ever. played football before yeah. I'm saying I played football in high. school but I didn't have no offers right. they sent me there to run track right in. Garden City right but you only ran. tracked your last year high school right. yeah I ran track and I played football. okay okay so I did both but I just. didn't have no offers right okay so when. I got the Garden City Nick was like come. play football I played football and I. killed it and then me uh that's when I.

began to like get all this you know uh. what you call it attention from like. Scouts and stuff saying I forget and I. forgot about what the track people had. said it was like go to uh go run track. at Garden City and I forgot about them. I'm like I'm football now right I'm back. football now baby so so once you got. once you uh went to the football team. you forgot so you didn't run track I. didn't run track until my second year I. didn't run track okay. so you said you ran you ran a 10 100. meters in high school you ran 20.1 that.

was the fastest time ever of uh of a kid. under 18. at the time right somebody. just broke that recently right oh yeah. the uh Terry and Knight yeah Taryn. Knight he read 1949. get that kid fast. I can't fast so I uh do you still have. the state record because I think you ran. 20.9 in High School in Georgia right uh. is it still is it still standing but it. probably is it probably is right. probably it probably is still standing.

let's go and get this out the way. I've met a lot of guys they've hit me up. say man you need to stop talking about. Tyree the fastest man in the NFL because. he not. I had DK Metcalf sitting that buried. chair and I said hold on. you try to tell me you faster than reek. cheetah. 10 he said you give him as many. nicknames as you want to he came out. right I'm gonna tell you like this I DM. DK metcal this off season I'm like bro. pull up Let's Race like we can donate. the money to charity we can do 50 000 on.

the line right now guess what he said he. sent me a picture of himself in a boot. like I'm in a boot bro like I'm like bro. I don't even remember you getting hurt. bro like when you got hurt okay there's. a guy on your team uh Magic braider no. moster Raheem moster. oh you you can ask him all the time I. told him at the end of this season I'm. bringing a briefcase full of a hundred. thousand and me and him gonna race on. the spot right there and he ain't got to. put up number 50. you would take the man money yeah like. like you I mean uh there's uh uh.

Marquise Goodwin I think he he told me. he can get you Mark he's going like I've. challenged him to many races like a lot. of these guys like they just get on TV. and talk but what I do is I DM him on. the side trying to set stuff up for. charity but they don't want to do it. just come on your show and just talk I. believe yeah so you can say. emphatically. empirically that you are the fastest. player currently playing in the NFL. I'm the fastest player currently playing.

in the NFL. there's nothing needed to be said about. that that's it so why do you so why do. all these guys want a state claim to. your title. so I just like people trying to chase. Jordan right you know how people chase. Jordan and say oh man like yeah I know. I'm the goat right he to go like you. feel me right I'm not saying I'm gonna. go but I know I'm the fastest right you. feel me I I'm definitely claiming that. title so if I if I would if I if I were. to schedule race I got you DK.

Raheem moster Jalen waddle. uh the kid from that just came out at. the Patriots I think his name is taekwon. Thornton taquan Thornton yeah so I got. Five Guys on put y'all on the track what. you want to run you want a hundred or. you want 40. whatever those guys want to. run I let those guys choose I let them. choose bro so you said lose a pig lose a. pig whatever they want to pick man. and the money go to charity and the. money goes if I can get if I can get. charity to like okay this is a hundred. thousand dollars we're gonna go to a.

great cause. you think they gonna show up. I think two of the guys that show up. there and two of the guys gonna realize. that hey we really about to lose. career cause I'm gonna show up on time. man you you did see DK at about 2 30. Run 10 33 at 2 30. he said if he dropped. down to 200 195 he said you ain't got no. change I'm just tell you what he told me. if he dropped down to 200 then he gonna. be sorry at football so which one he won. which one do you want he want to be.

faster than me or he want to be good at. football. you better stick to what he knows which. is catching passes. so how much do you weigh right now but. 190 195 I weigh 195. okay. so you wouldn't drop anything you go. you're gonna get on the track and run. one that's like look look I'm still. gonna eat my Popeyes go to the race and. then do what I gotta do yeah let's talk. about that diet because when I got here. you eating Cheeto I've been using uh uh. Doritos. and your dad is you and DK y'all got. something in common cause y'all died.

it's terrible. look my dad is straight from my mom's. kitchen. you know when I come home have that. fried pork chop ready. so so one for me okay Tyree wakes up do. you eat at home or do you wait till you. get to the facility might eat at home. you eat at home so what what is a break. what's breakfast for Tyree my mom used. to Cooks bacon sausage eggs everything. grits. you can't even move in the morning he'll. be walking like the Michelin Man in the.

lunch straight to practice okay so you. gotta be like I gotta eat light so. typically I do like a uh I do like a. shake and I could like uh like a. something quick like a quesadilla or. nachos or something something quick damn. you know that's still like okay now do. you do dinner there or you wait do you. get home tomorrow I go on a home and eat. so what you eating for dinner. I mean she she really serve it up like. she really it really be different it. varies from Days depending on how she. feeling she in a good mood she really.

gonna take care of me. but my favorite meal that that she makes. she made like a little Frito pie yeah a. little uh what them chips call. Fritos Fritos with the Frito pods and. hey I'm tripping Frito Frito chips yeah. she got cheese on the side she got. jalapenos she got tomatoes and diced. tomatoes what else. man that's that's one of the best. Hispanic meals of all time right now. how often how Mom how often are you.

cooking that the other day. that one 195 right now. foreign. your final season in Kansas City you had. a 111 receptions 1239 yards nine. touchdowns did you go to Miami saying I. can beat that I know what I did that's. the best season I've had as far as. catches I can beat that oh yeah yeah. yeah easy easily because because like I. said it was some games that I only got. two Targets right you know um I would.

have to make up for it in other games. and go for like 150 or 200 right and I. knew once I got to Miami you know coach. McDaniel he was going to feature me you. know in a way that I've never been. featured before in this league right you. know so I'm real I'm like I can say this. a million times I'm real grateful for. being able to play for this organization. for this team you know for him for just. bringing me here me and my family man. I'm very thankful for that right. we talked touched on it earlier you guys.

got some you know you got to make up. some ground the game you lost last week. didn't do any did a solid buffaloes. leading your division you get a chance. to play them again. um hold on Buffalo how long we leading. we 2-0 we two and one doing what but you. but but there but they have a better. overall record oh yeah yeah so. you know it goes overall record then it. goes if it comes down to it to go to the. division record. you know you got to make sure you're in. the playoff because I obviously you know.

Kansas City that's it you know you just. want to make the playoffs because that's. your goal like okay this team hadn't. been to the playoffs in a minute. they brought me in here for a reason I. ain't here to just take their money I'm. here to get them over the hump. well. my message to all of the guys on the. offensive side and defensive side is. just you know let's just be us and let's. just focus on one week at a time you. know we can't look ahead and think about. who we got or who's playing who all we.

can do is control what we can control. correct and that's our next game which. is you know the Lost which is the LA. chargers right so. we just gonna go out to this game you. know looking to play with fundamentals. techniques and come out with a dub man. against a real good team right they. their record may not show up but they're. a real good team either I believe. I'm looking at this you guys she's. having no one passing offense you guys. have the number two passing offense so. it seems like everybody got everybody. everybody should be happy Jose was there. it was a it was a win-win I think no it.

wasn't a win-win. I can't see him off the other one no. matter what who they got who no matter. what them picks they're not gonna be. Tyrique you know Tyree you you got a. chance to get fitted for a gold jacket. you do understand that right I don't. know I only know what none of that mean. bro you get ready for a gold jacket you. go to football heaven. football heaven. now that's something right there you go. to football heaven that'll be something. right there yeah my goal was just to.

make it into the league right but to be. going but just to be acknowledged for. going in the football Heaven that'll be. something crazy right there you. the Dolphins hadn't been to the playoffs. since 2016. what would it mean to you to the city to. Miami that fan base. Tyree comes in and obviously they've. added some other pieces I think coach. mcdan McDaniel has done an unbelievable. job. scheming doing a great job of getting.

you in position so you can do what you. do best catch the football and get that. get down the field in a hurry Jaylen. Waller you guys have weapons. I'm looking at you uh Wilson Jr and you. got uh most dirty yourself and waddle. and get Sicky and smite guys I mean yeah. yeah yeah we got we got some crazy guys. and they go out and make the truck to. make the trade for Bradley church so the. one thing I can say about the Dolphins. y'all go y'all all in yeah you should.

know your chips to the middle of the. table they really all in you know on. this team and they really all in on tour. and and and that just goes to show you. know how successful he's been right this. year you feel me right because I feel. like no team would do that you know like. they wouldn't go out and just trade for. like one of the best DNS on in in this. league you know if they truly didn't. believe that this is our window right. now right you feel me so they understand. um Mr Greer understands and obviously. this whole organization believes in you. know our quarterback so.

looking forward for the challenge man. like making the playoffs would would be. like a dream come true man. um. as as a player you know I know I've I've. been fortunate enough to be on teams to. make it to the playoffs right but you've. never not made the playoffs in your. whole NFL career you've never not made. the playoffs but to be able to like. actually help a team I know it's been a. long time since they've been in the. playoffs exactly and now you show up on. the scene.

it hit differently man you know right. talk because we see Mike McDaniel we. remember him singing the song last year. we see him on the sideline and they. asked him and he said no that would that. wasn't him me I I effed up I effed up so. what's he really like. oh he's a great coach. um his energy. the way he leads his team. um. the culture he has brought to this. organization has been great you feel me.

um everybody loves him. he has a different kind of swagger and. he's one of those coaches that anyone. can get along with right you feel me. um. so I I mean I I think the world of them. and I obviously love playing for them. and he makes my job a whole lot easier. like I feel like when I was playing with. Coach Reed I feel like I don't know I. just had like a different kind of. pressure because coach Reed was like one. of them golden coaches like it's like. you grew up watching coach Reed on TV. and it's like bro like.

this dude coach Reed is a legend bro I. don't want to mess up right but it's. like with Coach McDaniel is like you. don't want to mess up but it's like I. ain't bro like this dude really believe. in me right you feel me because like. it'll be some place where like I drop a. passion it'd be like re I know you're. supposed to catch that like I know. you're supposed to catch that I knew you. weren't trying to drop it you feel me. it's like a different vibe from KC are. there any similarities between uh coach. McDaniel and uh Andy or the what what's. what are some of the similarities and.

what is the major differences well both. of them I feel like both of them are. real open to change and they're open to. like any ideas any fresh ideas that are. that are pertaining to opening up this. offense even more right and that's what. makes them great at what they right they. both do right which which puts the ball. in their in their Playmakers hands you. feel me so coach Andy can can dial up a. crazy play and put it and put the ball. in in somebody's hand and Coach McDaniel. can do the same thing you feel me and. just take us to a different.

you know spectrum and it'll go crazy. about how about this here. who's the best duo. can't even wide receivers okay we got AJ. Brown Devonte Stefan Diggs Gabe Davis. Justin Jefferson Adam Phelan Jamar Chase. T Higgins we got you and waddle and you. know what just for good measure I'm. gonna throw I'm gonna throw a CD and uh. and uh Michael Gallup in there who the. best two receiver All I'm gonna say is. Stacks stats.

Ain't nobody got. and somebody number one and number five. in the in the chart of receiving yard. staff speaks for themselves man that's. all I got would that be you know I don't. know I have no idea. when you got to the league who's who's. your Mentor who when you got to Kansas. City put their arms around you and said. okay hey Rick this is how we do it see I. I had I had Jeremy Macklin I had.

Albert Wilson. and I had Chris Conley all three of. those guys were very helpful in my. career. but I feel like once I got to the lead. those guys knew that hey we got somebody. that run 4-2 in here and he know how to. play ball he couldn't get my job he. coming to get my job him and him and. because it was me and Demarcus Robinson. right that was like those two young. dudes they don't talk they work hard and. they make sure that we get our Popeyes. on Sunday I mean on on Saturday Saturday.

travel these dudes these dudes bought. their business so they knew once me and. D Rob we showed up at practice like that. and we were very accountable that was. like yeah we in trouble but the one guy. that I really could say I that really. helped me get to where I am right now. man Kelsey he really put he really put. his arms around me yeah and really. taught me the way man like we we don't. play the same position but he really. like really broke down like re like we.

all know you fast we all know you got. God giving this and that and that but. there's a certain way you got to play. this game there's a certain time you can. use all that and now I now you know. thank you I'm like yeah you're right and. I'm telling Jalen the same I'll be. telling Jalen water the same thing like. we got God given but there are times. that we use that and there are other. times that we can turn into little West. workers and just route stuff up in the. slot you know what I mean and that's and. that's the part of the game that I. didn't know early on in my career you. know you feel me yeah what's your.

favorite what's your favorite touchdown. celebration that you've done you I mean. the back flip. probably when I did the F1 car. Sunday night I did the F1 car and. probably that one that's probably like. my rookie year what what made you to. start doing the peace sign because that. that's I mean I mean you like bruh I'm. out.

so me man I'm I'm all about peace and. love like I'm all about spreading a real. awareness man and like I believe just. one time my rookie year I was running to. the end zone. and I'm like okay I don't know what to. do so I just threw up a peace sign you. feel me so I just did it there and then. I just began to do it all the time I. began to get cocky with it Defenders be. right beside me like hey you throw it up. in their face. so so let me what would happen if you. threw up the peace sign and all of a.

sudden the dude got to burst the energy. and snatch you. you know what you don't you don't. believe that can happen I don't believe. it can happen because. I don't feel like nobody can catch me. and and that and that and that's not. that's not me saying that I'm just the. fastest I'm just saying like I'm just. confident that I'm that far away from. you right like like I know positioning I. know positioning and I know my leverage. right I'm by you now so I'm going to. throw this up right feel me because you. still stuck in quit saying right and I'm. like on a treadmill and I'm gone right.

they you're tied in. executive tried to hit the gritty. yeah that was embarrassing right. you like bro what did you when he got to. the salad you say bro what you what what. was that what are you doing I was well. that's the goodies the gritty when he. did it I was like bro are you hurt like. are you okay like what's going on with. that gritty he was like bro like it. didn't look like that in the mirror I'm. like yeah you got that right.

you like I hope I hope it didn't look. like that in the mirror you still came I. did it you know what's crazy I told him. to continue to do it because people. actually hated it that bad right they. actually liked it right it's crazy so I. told him that could be a signal next. time you score keep doing it right. he played the Chiefs a couple years ago. I ain't never seen a guy have 200 yards. in a quarter. when you had when you got after that. kind of start did 300 400 yards cross. your mind.

you know what I had two over 200 203. yards and I think three touchdowns in. the first quarter I like I wasn't even. thinking at the time you know I was just. thinking about winning the game right. like maybe if the game was like maybe we. was up by 21 the whole game bro I'd have. been stat checking but the game was so. close against the Bucks that you know I. didn't even have time to just think. about stats I would just go go line up. make a play and then Pat would be like. hey I'm gonna come back to you I'm. coming back to you this way right here. and I'll be like okay man let's do it so.

it never crossed my mind not not once. because I'm thinking to myself I see 203. I'm like he got a chance at Flipper's. record flipper did 339 on the money I. think it was a Sunday night game against. the Saints he was with the ram he did. 339 15 catches 339. you kind of feel it. though yeah that's what I'm saying I'm. like you kind of feel it though like in. the first quarter I got like all I. needed like 50 50 another 50. now I. didn't ask you too much I just got 200. I know I can get 50 a quarter for the. next three but it's like right defensive.

coordinators are so smart now like it's. like you're not gonna you're nothing to. keep doing that because they play man. and all of a sudden they're with the. cover too yeah because they played man. the first few possessions of that game. right it was like after that they was. like you know what yeah you're not gonna. keep doing our guys right we're going to. play we're gonna play two man we're. gonna put him off and let him play. inside we're going to put the safety. over top right do that right growing up. in Coffee County did you live on a farm. did you have animals did I mean so so. what what was life like for you in. coffee Coffee County it was great um I.

didn't live on the farm I didn't live on. a ranch but I just lived in a in a. typical. um in a typical home it was in it was It. was kind of in the country right it was. it was away from the city so I would. have no public out of this country I. would have to walk you'll live unless. you live in Atlanta you're in the. country I I would have to walk like two. miles to the city what yeah I did that. too yeah. I remember one time I ran like 15 miles. from like City to City crazy but what. was somebody chasing you nah you know.

like Mom gonna whip you nah my mom told. me to be home by a certain night she was. like make sure you home by one o'clock. am I was saying I was seeing like my. little girlfriend at the time yeah my. mom was like I am not gonna come pick. you up you got to be home so I had to. run 15 miles to 15 miles and I did it. 15 miles. with her hair down. uh. so you didn't ride horses you didn't do.

anything like I'm not around. you know what you speak very highly of. your grandparents. um I was raised by my grandparents. obviously I have a great they did. unbelievable things for me. you spoke about your grandmother and uh. you said you know you get back home a. couple times a year because you know. your grandparents still live there tell. me about the influence your grandparents. had on you. well my grandparents they raised me um. throughout throughout my whole entire.

childhood so they really inspired me. they really you know. grew me to who I am today they made me. into the animal I am today that hungry. guy. who who who doesn't take losing easily. you feel me. so. I'm very prideful in everything that I. do I'm very thankful for for them for. raising me this way. um and yeah I I had a great life I had a. great childhood man growing up I had.

everything that that I wanted you know. if if if I didn't have it they would. work they would work their tail they. would work their tails off to get it so. very blessed to have them in my life. still to this day. um and yeah. your grandparents it's something special. something to be said that people that. inspired you that helped you are able to. be there and witness and see. Tyrique this big to this big and to see.

what you've been able to accomplish what. was that like for you when you're. growing when you're like. Grandma I don't know if you call a. granny grandma Big Mama. I'm going to the NFL I'm doing this and. the accomplishments in the Super Bowl. then the pro bowls and the all Pros what. was that like. well like like any typical grandmother. you know how that is they're gonna be. like nah like they still gonna look at. you as a baby all right so my grandma. she still look at me as a as a little. boy still like she still think I'm about. this tall like you don't supposed to be.

doing that but but my granddad he he's. like he's like proud of me every day he. calls me and like man I can't believe. you doing this though right like it's. still it's still shocking to me that I. can get on YouTube and look up your. highlights in the NFL and you and you. doing everything that you said right. gonna do so. for me man to be able to make them proud. and my parents proud and just everybody. around me proud man. like it's it's so real sometimes like. I'm not able to like take it all in.

sometimes but be thankful. for just being who I am right. man I'm looking I mean this is. impressive he was on the gold medal. willing team uh the four by one in. Barcelona you won the bronze medal in. the 200 meters and the Olympic uh Julia. I guess that we call that the Junior. Olympics right Olympics yep and then you. won in the Hot and Hot in track and. field the 5A state meet you run ten one. nine and run 20.14.

. I mean that who would have thought. because I I won the best performance. Trophy and try and triple jump in 1986. so you got both you know you got both. best performance trophies. who would have thought man. one guy like Jefferson you still have it. in Jefferson still in Jefferson. who would have thought man because. believe this or not my junior year I ran. like a 10-8. um how the hell you go from 10 to 10-1. I have no idea man like a lot of people. thought I was taking stuff it was like.

hey he's got to be on something but now. like it's just. like the relationships I grew like my. track coach that I had his name was. Jerry Hill and a lot of people think. he's my uncle or somebody's not he's. like he's a white guy he's my track. coach. like me being like me me being able to. connect with him on a different level. and and him just understanding who I am. as a person as an athlete like the way. that we just connected like he truly. believed in who I was and his like our.

first conversation he was like read like. this is our year that we're gonna win. state and this is a kid who just came. off running 10-8 and I'm like bro like. the kid just ran a 10-3 last year I'm a. drop like that he's like no I see it I. see it in you like it's just you don't. train. so he said that and I began training and. then. you know everything just began to take. off in the right direction I never. practiced long jump but I warned that.

until you hold up so you got the high. point trophy also yeah. no no no no we got second place in the. High Point trophy as a team no I'm. saying but you won the high so. individual oh yeah yeah yeah yeah so you. won the 100 the 200 and the long jump in. the long jump you know I won the high. points over too it was like you know you. won with the high point. that was I wanted an 85. but so here you. mentioned High School you had to go to. Juco route because. you didn't do the necessary work or the.

steps. why were you just bull driving I was. just I was just bull driving typical. high school guy typical high school. athlete you chase the girls I mean yeah. back in the day you feel me yeah you. feel me uh I used to get around with the. Honeys a lot you stay out late and uh. yeah I just didn't apply myself in. school. until I realized that I actually had the.

opportunity in front of me I didn't. start applying myself the graduation. test was like two weeks away right and I. didn't start applying myself to like a. week away from the graduation test and. I'm like bro like what did I just screw. my life my my senior year of high school. away and I could have been going D1. right so so now you realize yeah I'm. gonna have to go. in order to make my dreams come true. I'm gonna have to go on an alternate. route in order to get back on the road. that I need to be on that's when I began. to run track and all the track officers. began to come that's when they sent me.

to Garden City okay they send you to. Garden City. so my thing is you had you mentioned LSU. you mentioned Alabama you mentioned a. lot of big schools you didn't mention. Oklahoma State what made you choose. Oklahoma State. that's a long that's Oklahoma is a long. way from Georgia at least Louisiana so. my mom lived in Oklahoma oh okay she. lived in Oklahoma. and then I had this whole fascination. with Tavon Austin going to West Virginia. okay like this big star right having.

like 544 yards in one game yeah and I'm. like bro I can be just like this dude. bro I move like him I'm we we may be the. same speed we I'm taller than him I can. do I can do it I can do that too right. so I'm like I'm gonna commit to Oklahoma. State go to the big 12 and then. I'm gonna go first round of the draft. that was my goals right you go first. round go first round that's my goals you. go to Oklahoma State. you have an incident. and you got dismissed from the team what. did you learn what did Tyrique learn.

from that incident. what did I learn man uh I had to grow up. real fast so once I got dismissed. I had to move all the way back home. before you came all the way back to. Georgia I came all the way back to. Georgia now you know. when you leave everybody's not happy. that you left there are a lot of people. that was like yeah I told y'all Tyree. wasn't gonna do nothing yeah like that. at this typical talk yeah I just typical. talk though so you get back home what. was Tyrese game plan because your home.

Bedlam you return a punt returned 92. yards you you told you the toast of. steel water come on I was him I was I. was up here I was all the way up here so. now you got to go all the way back to. Georgia so what's going through tyreek's. mind you you and your mom your. Grandmom's house you laying in the bed. night like damn what if I just done did. I just F my life up what did I do ah man. it was just one of them typical College. stories about a football star and a girl. like you you know how it is people just.

bang bang he did this he said she said. moment so right you're not gonna get. into all that but what I will say when I. went back to Georgia. um I went back to Georgia with my. grandparents and like I had I had. completely lost everything friends. family a lot of people not believing in. me but I still have my Corey unit right. I had my grandparents I had my mom I had. my dad my sister I still had those. people that believed him yeah that's all. you need so as long as you got the core. you're good as long as I got the core. out I'm good so I didn't have no plan of.

going to school I was like I'm gonna sit. I'm gonna sit and chill for a minute. like you say you're gonna have those. people that was like yeah I told you. Tyree you're gonna be back it's typical. it's typical it's typical. um so. my granddad he get us a job at this wood. plant. so you know when you you go to the wood. plant and you I'm sticking wood inside. of a thing and it's and you I don't I. can't remember it's a wood plant so I'm. doing that I did that for like two.

months and. I don't know I really believe in. everything happens for a reason correct. I got a call from this school. school called me they're like hey this. Tyrique and I'm like yeah this Tyree and. it's a it's a school in Tennessee. Chattanooga so they're like yeah man you. can come up here go to school like we we. heard about your story you can come up. here and go to school so I tell my mom. she's like oh yeah we going back to. school to play ball so I tell her that. I drive literally eight hours to go to. Tennessee from South Georgia all the way.

to Tennessee I get all the way up there. the dude was like you got all you gotta. do is just talk to the president I get. all the way up there the dude is like. bro we can't accept you what yeah. exactly hello you know hold on exactly. by myself I drove by myself too because. I drove all the way to talk to the. president the head coach athletic. director they all was up there so once I. got up there I ain't even see him he. just called me he was like yeah you up. here he was like yeah we can't accept. you man because of the situation and you.

know y'all could have called me on the. phone when I was in Georgia when I was. like three like when I was leaving y'all. could have told me that so I called my. mom I'm like real sad I'm like man I'm. about to hang it up man. my mom she was like hey man don't look. don't worry about that just come home. God got you. so as I'm believe this or not as I'm. driving home. I get another call from West Alabama. so coach called me he's like read. you ready to play some football. I'm like.

man what is this I'm like nah man I. ain't want to talk right now because the. school just turned me down right they. like I'm like no I ain't gonna play no. ball he's like reap I got the transcript. I'm really West Alabama I said send me a. picture of it he sent me a picture of. the transcript him and the A.D the. athletic athletic director the president. and the head coach they all on the phone. yeah come on we we want you. so I. let me type in Alabama I'm four hours.

away I'm on the way so I called my mom. like Mom I just got a call from West. Alabama they say they want me she was. like yeah yeah let's go let's go let's. go so I go there I get there and I play. literally in the game the game was the. next day what crazy game was the next. day I returned two punts in the same. game which is crazy you hit him up I hit. him up like coach I'm on the way. so I scored two times wow. your parlay West Alabama you become a. late round draft pick. fifth round.

I got a very similar story I ended up. getting with prop 48 ended up going to. Savannah State the best decision of my. life uh I go in the seventh round you. win the fifth round how motivated were. you. getting there because you're like. because I'm thinking to myself man this. is my this is my last opportunity I mean. I mean I'm not no first round I ain't. guaranteed no roster spot. well I I like I knew I had the talent. you know to play with anybody you know. but my granddad like he's he's such a.

huge advocate in my life he'll be he. like he told me man once you get that. opportunity dog just don't look back. just don't look back and there are no. friends in the NFL. you know a lot of guys are trying to be. your friend a lot of guys try to do this. and tell you to do that do that but. really it's all about saving their own. jobs so that was my mindset going that. happened to me I had a guy didn't know I. didn't know to play I asked the guy we. competing for the job he said go in. there and do that guess what I did I did.

that guess what it was wrong yeah we got. some guys I mean what I couldn't say. well coach he told me wrong I should. have known what I had to do. like lesson learned lesson learned so. yeah man what what like once my once my. granddad told me that I got locked in I. was like yeah. I mean there's nothing stopping me I'm. you were the last one you were the last. wide receiver on the depth chart because. you were drafted mainly as a returner. and you were. did you go out there with it say every.

day I'm gonna get better I'm gonna give. them a reason I'm gonna give them the. reason to give me an opportunity to get. on offense yeah I'm here I'm gonna. return punts and kickoffs and all that. stuff but. I got my Iowa winning receive response I. got my eye on that being on the. offensive side of the football so I was. a backup to Jeremy Macklin and I would. go in for him when he was tired right. and then I will make play the same place. he would make yeah but I would do him. like five times more exciting yeah if. you get 10 yards you get 30. they'll be. like oh. who's the return guy yeah so like man I.

like I say man my mindset was like once. I get this spot I'm Not Looking Back man. right. you didn't look back. does it bother you that people always. mention your size because yeah I mean. your pro day you mentioned five eight. and a half. [Music]. that don't I mean now that really don't. bother me because I feel like God could. make you six foot two and still let you. run 4-2 it really don't bother me man. because I I feel like you can't measure.

a guy's dedication and preparation in. his heart to how much how much passion. he got into his craft correct you feel. me yeah like I say I I play football. right you can line me up at receiver you. can line me at running back I feel I. feel like I still be successful at both. I may not be able to get you a fourth. and one like and running through the. whole running somebody over but I'll be. able to make you a play right but I'm. not gonna run nobody over but I'm gonna. be able to get that fourth and one it. may not look the way you thought it was. gonna look it ain't gonna look like. they're here it ain't gonna look like.

Derek Henry but it's going it's going. it's gonna happen we're gonna move the. change you feel me so I I just I just. play football man. you know what I would you challenged you. saying both. the time numerous times. I even DM I DM them too wreak I got the. receipts in my phone I'm not saying reek. I'm not saying that you didn't do that. but I'm saying. well you like do you realize who that is.

yeah he washed up oh. what's up Usain Bolt washed up like. there comes a point in your life where. you get older and the new generation. come in like washed up right so you. believe so you believe if you if you say. you say I'm gonna give you six months to. train do what you need to do and he says. okay we're gonna run a 40. you could. beat Usain Bolt in the 40. I'm. definitely beating him. if there's a 40-yard dash between me and. Usain Bolt I'm definitely beating him.

now if you go maybe 80 he may got a. chance he got a chance he got a chance. then but if no NFL player got a chance. in any distance 46 year old Honda yeah. no NFL player got a chance at 40 60. maybe in five like ain't no chance. you and I talked earlier. you've gone to the Pro Bowl every single. year. you've been a three-time first-team. All-Pro I believe it's about to be four. I believe Tyrique you're on a Hall of.

Fame trajectory and we kind of touched. on it briefly. what would it mean. given where you came from. the obstacles and the detours that you. had to take to reach the ultimate. destination what would it mean for you. to have to one day. I don't know who would be your presenter. your mom Grandmom sister brother I don't. know maybe you have a son he'll be old. enough to present you what would it mean. to have someone put a gold jacket on you.

I don't know man. I I probably get emotional for real you. know just thinking about all the. adversity I had to face thinking about. you know. the situations I've been in in my life. and. just just the things I've had to do to. get to this point in my career right. like when I say sacrifices I mean the. workouts you know making sure that I'm. I'm up early in the morning for workouts.

um. and stuff like that. because. my day look like days get hard man when. you're doing it alone man right. especially like when you're training do. you mainly train alone you don't train. with a group of guys I train alone okay. I train with Doug. uh Keith Williams he's the receiver. coach okay uh Ravens okay and I train. with him so me and him be up me and him. used to be up early 6 a.m in the morning. right just like it's a regular season.

and you run alone you lift alone yeah I. like to I like to do everything alone do. you yeah it's either me and dub or or is. me and my me and my granddad so. it's just the way that I I'd rather I'd. rather have it. congratulations on all your success. continue success stay healthy and the. best of luck this season thank you. appreciate that bro. Tyree Hill ladies and gentlemen.

all my life. all my life been running all my life. [Music]. my life.
