who has the fastest 40 yard dash in the nfl ever
40-yard dash Auburn's Bo Jackson claims to have run a 40-yard dash with a time of 4.12 s.[6][7] A time of 4.18 run by Jackson within the same week added some support to the legitimacy of the times.[8][9] Texas Tech's Jakeem Grant was hand-timed by a New Orleans Saints scout as running a 4.10 in 2016, potentially beating Jackson's record.[10] Deion Sanders ran a 4.27-second 40-yard dash in 1989.[11]
Trindon Holliday At 5'5", Holliday is one of the shortest players in NFL history.[1] He has also played for the Denver Broncos, New York Giants, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, San Francisco 49ers, and Oakland Raiders.
Devin Hester Originally drafted as a cornerback, Hester quickly made an impact as a kick returner, and later became one of the team's starting wide receivers. He holds the NFL record for most all-time return touchdowns (punt and kickoff combined) and most all-time punt return touchdowns.[2] He is widely regarded as one of the best return specialists in NFL history, and was the first person ever to return the opening kick of the Super Bowl back for a touchdown.[3][4]
