What is two tenth’s of a second?
It’s the difference between a 4.24 and a 4.54 40 yard dash.
A top ten pick and a second day maybe.
A $20 million dollar signing bonus and the league minimum.
One jersey is worn by everyone in the stands,
and the other is only worn by his mother.
When the gun went off,
the player sprinted, his fate floated, the tape broke
and it was over just like that
in 4.28 seconds.
Just two-tenths of a second.
Proof, the smallest difference can make the biggest difference.
The NFL combine….for the undaunted underdog.
