The NFL Combine just got a record-breaking winner in the 40-yard dash. This particular run is one of the most interesting events to watch where wide receivers and defensive backs showcase their running abilities. And this year’s NFL prospects are outdoing themselves!

When Clemson cornerback Nate Wiggins clocked a 4.28 record this year, it was hard to imagine anyone else beating that record. But on top of beating that record, a new record for the 40-dash is set inside Lucas Oil Stadium with Xavier Worthy leaving everyone else in the dust! 

Texas Longhorns WR Xavier Worthy clocked a record with an incredible 4.21 seconds. After being tied at 4.22 seconds, the official adjusted the time by cutting off .01 seconds, making him the fastest NFL Draft prospect. Following his run, he said in between breaths, “Man I never thought I’d be able to be on this stage and do that.”

With his run, he became the fastest man to ever run at the NFL Combine. He beat the 2017 record of 4.22 laid down by John Ross. This gives the 20-year-old an excellent prospect of being drafted into the NFL in an early round. NFL teams may be on the hot heels of Worthy after that remarkable record!

Xavier Worthy – A force to reckon with 

The 40-yard dash isn’t the only thing that earned Xavier Worthy the spotlight. He had performed exceptionally in the 2023 season in Texas where he threw for 1,014 yards and five TDs on 75 catches, assisting the Longhorns to a 12-2 record to clinch their first CFP appearance. In his three seasons in Texas, Worthy recorded 197 receptions for 2,755 yards and 26 TDs, earning all-conference honors in 2021 and 2023.

Worthy announced that he would forgo his senior year and enter the pro league in January. As per Pro Football Focus, the 6’1, 172-pounder is entering the 2024 NFL Draft as the No. 66 overall prospect. He already has interest from NFL teams like the Kansas City Chiefs and the Tennessee Titans. After his Saturday lightning-speed run, he could become a gem to be fought over. After all, what team wouldn’t want such speed and agility?
