Xavier Worthy Smashes NFL Combine Record with Blazing 40-Yard Dash
Texas WR Sets New Mark
Indianapolis, IN – The NFL Scouting Combine witnessed a new era of speed on Saturday as Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy shattered the 40-yard dash record. On his second attempt, Worthy clocked in at an astonishing 4.21 seconds, eclipsing the previous record of 4.22 seconds set by John Ross in 2017.
A Record-Breaking Performance
Worthy's blistering speed left scouts and analysts in awe. He outpaced his closest competitor, LSU running back Josh Williams, by a full 0.11 seconds. The former Longhorns star's time not only broke the Combine record but also set a new unofficial world record for the 40-yard dash.
Ross, the former Washington receiver who held the previous record, took to Twitter to congratulate Worthy. "Congrats to Xavier Worthy on breaking my 40-yard record," Ross wrote. "That's incredible speed, bro!"
Implications for the NFL Draft
Worthy's record-breaking performance has undoubtedly boosted his stock ahead of the NFL Draft. The 6'1", 200-pound wideout has long been regarded as one of the top prospects in the country, but his exceptional speed has solidified his place as a potential first-round pick.
