Former University of Texas wide receiver Isaiah Bond says he plans to break the NFL Combine’s 40-yard dash record.

Bond’s fellow Texas alumnus, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy, set the record at last year’s Combine with a blistering 4.21-second run. At his media availability Friday, Bond said he would run the drill in 4.2 seconds or even less. The former track star will face some stiff competition from several other prospects who have threatened to break the record and have similar backgrounds.
