Not sensitive at all. I just get tired of the first Black the first white the first latin.. We are all just people! Kinda like saying White Men cant jump was not a stereo Type ( funny Movie , The origional) yet you got people like Deon Sanders who coach that say We dont let white guys play corner because they cant run. That's Racist!

First time in history!! Noteworthy, no context if you say person runs sub 9.9s 100m. There is nothing racist about the post but we can agree to disagree.

Saying "we don't let white guys play corner back because they can't run" is a discriminatory racist statement
BUT
saying the vast majority of the cornerbacks in the NFL are black is not............why is that? well, probably b/c when it comes down to it, the most white CBs aren't as quick/fast as the black ones, yes there are ALWAYS exceptions........................I'm white and I don't take offense to EITHER of the above statements..........it is what it is.

So I guess it’s ok if I say white guys make better QuarterBacks?
No I think a lot of prejudice has gone on and still does in sports.
BTW just because this guy was timed at sub 10 does not mean it’s the first time..

No, that's a racially discriminatory statement, just like the Deon statement.
Also, there are MANY more variables that go into what makes a good QB than a CB........If you run an offensive system that requires dual threat speed, agility, & mobility then I'd guess the likelihood of him being white is pretty low...............is that to say no White Qbs are mobile.......NO, but it all depends on what fits the scheme.
are you suggesting that there are a ton of white CBs that the NFL has not found or missed out on?

Man you sure bought into the myth.
I think that not everyone chooses to play football.
I think that sometimes white guys het passed over for certain positions because they are white just like black guys got passed over for QB’s for years.
Deshaun got upset when called a dual threat QB because He did not like the stereotype!
People are people judge them on their content and character and one by one on the athletic field.

I wonder who segregated Sub Saharan Africa, The Far East, North & South America, Polynesia, Australia, Europe, The Middle East, Southeast Asia, and the Indian Sub Continent?
Let me know if you find out.

four time undefeated NFL's Fastest Man winner back when they held those races. Green was supposedly clocked in Washington Redskins 1986 training camp SEVERAL times at 4.09 (!) seconds in the 40 yard dash. That, my friends, be MOVING!
I don't know about those absolute numbers, but you can watch many, many films from his NFL career where he ran down some very fast guys from behind, sometimes from a ridiculous distance behind. And this continued to happen, even late in his career. He just did not slow down.

Probably Tecmo Bowl.
A few guys were absolute speed freaks in that game and if you played with one, you would probably beat the computer until you ran into another one of these guys. The ones I remember are Darrell Green, Ronnie Lott, Lawrence Taylor, Mike Singletary, Bo Jackson and John Elway (super quick for a QB in that game). Others were good but didn't have that blazing speed: Jerry Rice, Eric Dickerson, Herschel Walker, Tony Dorsett, and Walter Payton.

Absolute truth.
Apparently DG was able to still hit under (or right around) 4.4 in the 40 at age 40 -- which is INSANE.
Another insane statistic from back in the day from another freak of nature....

Ship is not close to that speed. As mentioned, Jacoby Ford nor Spiller ran near that fast both were in the low low 10's. I think CJ was 10.16, Ford 10.01 and Feaster won state at 10.21.
9.86 is super fast. I would like to see the race with Hill, Metcalf and Beck especially in pads.

out of HS.
if he has it.........he hasn't shown it.
He's tough as nails, runs hard, and "pretty fast", but not gamebreaking speed like a CJ or even Etienne had.

You can't coach speed and we need more of it at RB and WR.

Besides it just not true. I already found at least 2 other men who have ran sub 10.
But in context less than 150 people in history have been timed under 10.
