Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new combine speed champion!
Texas Longhorns wide receiver Xavier Worthy blazed his name into the NFL Scouting Combine record books on Saturday. Worthy ran the fastest 40-yard dash in the event’s history, flying over 40 yards in just 4.21 seconds.
After initially being clocked at a record-tying 4.22 seconds, the official adjustment shaved off .01 of a second, giving Worthy the record all by himself. He edges out wideout John Ross, who ran a 4.22 back in 2017.
