IN PHOTOS: Tyreek Hill goes undercover at Speed Academy training camp

Tyreek Hill is as recognizable as any athlete could be in the NFL. Hence, to give a surprise to the attendees of his Speed Academy training camp in New Jersey, 'Cheetah' donned an outfit laden with makeup to make him unrecognizable.

The Miami Dolphins' wide receiver runs a training academy and camps to enhance not only running capabilities but also the catching and tactical skills of youth-level footballers. For his latest camp, Hill had a surprise waiting for the kids. A look resembling Eddie Murphy in ‘The Nutty Professor’.

Tyreek Hill documented the entire process of taking on the persona of D’Squarius Green Jr. a fake name he invented to participate in the camp. The 2020 Super Bowl winner put up a ton of stories on his Instagram after the entire event transpired.

In the first picture, Hill looks his normal self and captioned the story as:

Tyreek Hill is a jokester

This isn’t even the first time Tyreek Hill has gone undercover. As recently as a month ago, Hill surprised the residents of Miami by disguising himself as an old man. Hill’s humorous nature is not only scripted but shines through in normal interactions as well.

A week ago, Hill was spotted by a fan at a gas station, refueling his McLaren 720. In this funny interaction, Hill’s response to the nature of his profession was:

​

"I'm a plumber, bro"

Tyreek Hill has time and again proved that he has a loyal fanbase across the state lines, not only due to his exceptional plays but also through his good-natured humor.

Hill finished the 2023-24 season, his eighth in the NFL, with 119 receptions, 1,799 yards, and 13 touchdowns for the Dolphins.
