This just in, Tyreek Hill is fast.

As if further evidence really was needed, the Miami Dolphins wide receiver provided it Saturday when he took part and won the 60-meter dash at the USA Track and Field Masters Indoor Championships in Louisville, Kentucky.

Hill had some fun on Twitter after his performance, where he ran the 60-meter dash in 6.7 seconds, where he joked about what he described as a less-than-impressive showing.

Of course, speed has been Hill's calling card since he entered the NFL in 2014 and it was on full display last season when he earned Dolphins team MVP honors in his first season with the team after being acquired in a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs.

TYREEK HILL'S SPEED ON DISPLAY FOR MIAMI DOLPHINS THROUGHOUT 2022 SEASON

Hill somehow didn't crack the top 20 in the NextGen Stats for fastest recorded speed in 2022 because he sure looked plenty fast on several big plays, including his two long touchdowns in Week 2 at Baltimore, a long catch from Teddy Bridgewater at Cincinnati in Week 4 and, of course, the wild play in the Sunday night game against the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium in Week 14 when he picked up a loose ball on the field (batted toward him by Terron Armstead) after a Jeff Wilson Jr. fumble and outran the Chargers defense to the end zone for a 57-yard touchdown.

The last one was our No. 1 choice as top offensive play of the 2022 season for the Dolphins.

Now, on a more serious note, good for Hill to get some running in during the early part of the offseason, though we can't help but wonder whether the risk of suffering some kind of leg injury is worth it.

Like we said, it's not like we didn't already know that Hill is fast — very fast.
