VIDEO: Henry Ruggs Unleashes Blazing 4.27 40-Yard Dash at NFL Combine

Henry Ruggs was expected to be the fastest receiver available in the 2020 NFL Draft. His showing during the NFL Scouting Combine Thursday night further solidified that.
In his first attempt at the 40-yard dash, the Alabama wideout ran the distance in 4.27 seconds officially (it was initially listed at 4.28). That's blazing fast.
Check out his run:

Well, the film doesn't lie, Ruggs is really damn fast. His second run checked in at 4.31.
Here's how that run stacked up against John Ross' record-breaking run from 2017:

Ruggs almost surely solidified himself as a first-round pick in the draft -- and probably jumped up a bit -- with his performance.
