As scouts and fans alike watched in awe, Worthy blazed down the field with lightning speed, leaving his competitors in the dust. His time of 4.22 seconds not only broke the previous record but also solidified his status as one of the fastest players in NFL history.
Worthy's performance at the combine sent shockwaves through the football world, with analysts praising his exceptional speed and agility. Many predicted that he would be a top pick in the upcoming draft, with teams eager to harness his game-changing abilities on the field.
Texas football receiver Xavier Worthy reached a historic achievement at the NFL combine on Saturday, officially setting the record for fastest 40-yard dash in combine history with a run of 4.21 seconds.
It was his second run of the day after he ran a similarly blistering 4.25-second run in his first run of the day. Worthy's 40 time from his second run broke the 2017 mark set by former Washington receiver John Ross, who ran the event in 4.22 seconds. For years, that mark was the one to beat — until the Longhorns receiver broke it.
Worthy had a huge season at Texas in 2023. He finished the year with 1,014 yards and five touchdowns on 75 catches. The Longhorns finished the season with a 12-2 record, reaching the College Football Playoff for the first time.
Over the course of his three seasons in Austin, Worthy hauled in 197 receptions for 2,755 yards and 26 touchdowns.
