The NFL Combine is in full effect, and one of the biggest draws is always the 40 yard dash. The record holder is Chris Johnson with a time of 4.24 seconds, set in 2008. Adidas, looking to add a little extra hype to the event, decided to offer an island worth $1 million to anyone who could break Johnson’s record. Well, John Ross of the University of Washington just did that, with an OFFICIAL time of 4.22 seconds. He’s about to get paid….oh wait. He was wearing Nike, not Adidas. Damn. But regardless, that boy fast. Pay him anyway Nike!
OFFICIAL: 4.22! There is a new 40-yard dash record holder! @WatchJRoss is the new KING of the 40! #NFLCombinepic.twitter.com/Antnt2sgzH
