American sprinter Noah Lyles is being blasted for his actions in Paris.
Noah Lyles raced in the men’s 200m final at the Olympics and won the bronze medal before revealing he had competed with Covid.
The United States track and field star is trending once again after footage showed him partying the night away in Paris just days after finishing third in the men’s 200m dash and revealing a COVID-19 diagnosis.
The video shows Lyles dancing at the Omega House in Paris, and it came out from the weekend when he announced he had been diagnosed with COVID-19.
Noah lyles didn’t have Covid when he won the 100 but suddenly did when he lost the 200 now he’s in the club dancing lmao im crying pic.twitter.com/lsnR8LoVJQ

Social media spared no expense and destroyed him for his actions:
The 27-year-old from Gainesville, Florida, had himself quite an Olympics as he won a gold medal in a photo finish in the 100-meter dash after initially thinking he had lost and then talking trash about winning the 200-meter dash four days later, only to come in third place.
However, it seems he would be sick as he collapsed in a heap and needed a wheelchair to get off the track.
Noah Lyles ran the 200-meter race knowing he had COVID-19 but wasn’t going to pull out of his favorite race.
Noah Lyles tested himself for Covid-19, so he decided to isolate in a hotel near the Olympic Village. However, it appears that the footage above means he wasn’t as sick as he played up to be.
When Will Noah Lyles Race In A Huge Event?
Noah Lyles’s Paris Olympics may have ended a bit earlier after he tested positive for COVID-19, but his next race will be just as big.
The World Athletics Championships will be held in Tokyo in September 2025. More than 2000 athletes from some 200 countries will come to Tokyo to take part in one of the world’s biggest sporting events.
Noah Lyles will certainly be there. He looks to have a much better showing at this Tokyo event than he did in the Olympics in Tokyo in 2021.
Michigan Wolverines HC Sherrone Moore Provides Major Update On Team’s Starting QB Plans For 2024 Season With JJ McCarthy No Longer Around

Michigan Wolverines head football coach Sherrone Moore provided an interesting update on his team’s plans at quarterback as the regular season draws closer.
The defending national champions will look a lot different this year. Head coach Jim Harbaugh returned to the NFL after accepting the Los Angeles Chargers’ HC vacancy, and Moore was named the new head coach of the Michigan Wolverines.
Michigan will also have a new starting quarterback. Last year’s signal-caller, JJ McCarthy, declared for the 2024 NFL Draft and was taken 10th overall by the Minnesota Vikings.
Davis Warren, Jack Tuttle and Alex Orji are the three front-runners for the starting job, according to Tony Garcia of the Detroit Free Press. Tuttle attempted 17 passes in minimal action last season, completing 15 of them for 130 yards and a touchdown.
With the Aug. 31 season opener against Fresno State drawing closer, Moore stresses that he’s still taking his time deciding on the new starting QB in Ann Arbor:
“The ideal timeline is when we feel like we’ve got the guy who will help us win. There’s not a date, not a time. We will have a feel as a staff…(Offensive coordinator) Kirk Campbell is a phenomenal coach…he will make a great decision and we will be there to make it together.”
