Next Gen Stats: Mecole Hardman reached fastest speed on a scoring play this season
The Chiefs tweeted a fun image of the team’s receivers with a nod to the “The Fast and The Furious” movie franchise.
The photo shows Mecole Hardman, Sammy Watkins, Demarcus Robinson and Tyreek Hill and has their fastest speeds of the season.
For Hill, the team wrote “Speed Unknown.”

In fact, the NFL’s Next Gen Stats showed that Hardman had the fastest speed reached by a ball carrier on a scoring play this season. Hardman topped out at 21.74 mph.
