Chris Johnson congratulates John Ross on breaking 40-yard dash record

TEMPE, Ariz. -- Move over, Chris Johnson.

The Arizona Cardinals running back is no longer the NFL scouting combine's record holder in the 40-yard dash after former Washington Huskies star wide receiver John Ross clocked a 4.22 on Saturday, .02 faster than Johnson’s 4.24 mark set in 2008.

Johnson’s record became a hot topic of conversation this week after Adidas offered a private island to anyone who breaks Johnson’s mark as long as they were wearing Adidas cleats. Ross wore Nike shoes on Saturday.

Johnson congratulated Ross on the feat with a short tweet.
