Ed White alum could break all-time record in the 40-yard dash at NFL Combine

Javaris Davis was a 2-way star during his time at Ed White, excelling both as a RB and a DB.

It's a bird! It's a plane! Nope, it's just Javaris Davis.

The Ed White High school football standout is a speedster and some think he has a shot at beating the all-time 40-yard-dash record at the NFL Combine this year.

John Ross, former Washington Husky and current Cincinnati Bengal, holds the current record at 4.22.

Sports Director Chris Porter says Davis is fast enough to break the record, and many agree. His lowest official time is 4.24, but additional training sessions and the added pressure of the Combine may just push him to break past that.

"He has that blazing speed and has the physical capability of breaking the record, we'll just have to see what happens," says Porter.
