Xavier Worthy vs. Keon Coleman 40-yard dash time: Which WR performed better at 2024 NFL combine?

Xavier Worthy had a fabulous first year with the Kansas City Chiefs and helped them reach the Super Bowl, where they eventually lost to the Philadelphia Eagles. Another rookie wideout, Keon Coleman, also impressed many during his time with the Buffalo Bills.

While Worthy and Coleman are considered among the best talents for the future, one of them is considerably quicker than the other.

Worthy recorded the fastest time ever at the NFL Combine last year when he did his 40-yard dash in a rapid 4.21 seconds. He was quicker than Coleman, who completed his 40-yard time in 4.61 seconds.

While Coleman's time is not slow by any means, he is no match for Worthy in a foot race.

Worthy had two attempts at the 40-yard dash in the scouting combine. His first run was clocked at 4.25 seconds, but he completed the drill in 4.21 seconds on his second attempt.

Worthy broke John Ross' 40-yard time record of 4.22 seconds set in 2017. How long Worthy's record will stand the test of time remains to be seen.
