Former NFL player, 53-year-old Willie Gault, thinks he’s still got it & can burn up the some of the league’s elite runners – including DeSean Jackson. I’d love to see them race! Do you think he could beat DeSean if they raced today?!
Hit the jump to see what he had to say…
Via TMZ:
We spoke with Willie, unarguably one of the fastest men in the HISTORY of the NFL, and he told us he’s been able to maintain his lightning fast speed thanks to a hardcore training regimen and strict diet.
“I’m less than a second slower than I was in my prime,” Gault says … telling us he’s still clocking a 4.3 in his 40-yard dash.
When asked how he would stack up against some of the league’s current speed demons Willie says “Probably eight to ten guys faster than me, Trindon Holliday, Chris Johnson of course.”
But when it came to All-Pro receiver DeSean Jackson, Willie didn’t give it up saying … “Nah, not him. I could get him.”
