That would be cool.
There have been TONS of legit 100m sprinter/football players like Tyreek Hill, Bob Hayes, Jacoby Ford, Ron Brown, Sam Graddy all could run a sub10.10 (Hill 10.19 but..HS) Then there are guys like John Ross, Joey Galloway, Chris Johnson who are just fast footballers, yep a 40 about it for them.
NFLers to be Ron Brown and Sam Graddy taking 4th and second at the 84 Olympics.
Christian McCaffreys grandpa Dave Sime took the 1960 Olympic silver in the 100m
The Cowboys drafted Carl Lewis, but I do doubt his kind of speed wouldn't work in football. He came on late in his races.(actually decelerated at a slower pace)
