BATON ROUGE, La. -- Deion Jones ran so fast at LSU’s pro day, he even surprised himself.
“I planned on going fast, but I did not think I was gonna go that fast. That was crazy, to tell you the truth,” said Jones, who was clocked as low as 4.38 seconds in the 40-yard dash on Monday -- nearly a full 10th of a second faster than any other linebacker at last month's NFL scouting combine and much faster than the 4.59 he had posted in Indianapolis.
The time was confirmed by at least one scout in attendance, though another had Jones a bit slower.
