Tyreek Hill is one of the fastest players in the NFL, earning the nickname ‘Cheetah’. While his 40-yard dash time of 4.29 seconds still remains unbeaten, Cowboys LB, Micah Parsons, came mightily close with 4.39 seconds. Further throwing the fans in awe and shock at the same time, Parsons has made a revelation about his rookie teammate. Who, according to the LB, is even faster than him.
Cowboys LB Micah Parsons believes he was clocked around 20.5 mph in practice last week. He wants to reach 21 mph this week. "Damone [Clark] is actually ahead of me, so it's a competition right now." Clark, a rookie LB from LSU, was activated to 53-man roster today from NFI.

In a recent interview with the press, Parsons disclosed that while he was clocked at 20.5 mph in a practice. His rookie teammate Damone Clark is even faster than him. The Cowboys drafted the rookie in the 5th round of the 2022 NFL draft as the 176th overall pick. And while the player has not yet played a single game, due to an injury, the team has activated him to a 53-man roster right as he makes his recovery. The 22-year-old is an LB as well. And if he is indeed faster than Parsons, he will be some addition to that defence.
Fans can not believe Micah Parsons
The statement has sent the NFL world on Twitter into a frenzy. Many fans can not believe that the rookie is faster than the former Defensive Rookie of the Year.
Wait…Damone Clark runs even faster than 11???

Fans would be surely excited to see both of them on the gridiron together.
A scary defence in the making
Parsons is the poster boy of a very deadly Dallas Cowboys defense. The LB won the Defensive Rookie of the Year last season. Since then, the player has not shown any signs of slowing down. He has quickly become a fan favourite in Dallas. The defence already ranks 2nd in points allowed per game, with only 14.9 points allowed per game.

Now with Damone Clark sprinting onto the scene, the defense would only step up. The rookie is 22 years old and matches Micah in stature. He stands 6 foot 3 tall. And if he can run that fast, simply put, he will be a menace to deal with.
