The 2023 NFL scouting combine is knocking on the doors. Predicted to be conducted from the 28th of February up to the 6th of March, this will be an immense opportunity for the younger up-and-coming prospects to prove their worth. The potential future NFL stars are meant to undergo a series of physical and mental tests in front of some of the top brass in the NFL. Most coaches, GMs, and scouts will be expected to be present at the combine to get a glimpse of their talents and evaluate strengths and weaknesses. One of the most historic and sought-after drills has to be the 40-yard dash, testing an athlete’s speed, acceleration, and stamina. But have you seen your favorite NFL stars’ faces while doing a 40-yard dash?

Over the years, every single marquee NFL legend has had to undergo this same exact process. A recent NFL Twitter thread has, however, helped in taking the tension out of this particular drill, as it went on to shed some ‘comedic light’ onto some absolute legends of the game.
