A day after using setting two NFL combine records, Wendall Williams was trying get "a little grounded."
The wide receiver/kick returner from NAIA University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, Kentucky, ran a hand-clocked time of 4.19 seconds in the 40-yard dash Saturday at Winter Park, Minnesota, to break Chris Johnson's record of 4.24 in 2008 that has been considered the gold standard. Williams also tied the vertical jump mark of 45.0 inches held by Ohio State's Donald Washington and Georgia's Chris Conley.
"I didn't see the numbers, but I couldn't believe them at first," Williams told The Associated Press by phone on Sunday.
