Saints' Alvin Kamara, Ted Ginn Jr. headline million-dollar race

METAIRIE, La. -- Alvin Kamara knows he doesn’t have the same level of “elite speed” as a handful of former track stars playing in the NFL.

“I’m all right, though,” the New Orleans Saints running back quickly interjected.

And he decided that he is willing to go up against many of those guys in Saturday’s “40 Yards of Gold” 40-yard dash tournament in South Florida because there is a million-dollar first prize on the line.

“A lot of guys just like me are looking at that big prize and trying to take their shot,” Kamara said.
