Roger Goodell Runs a 40-Yard Dash For Charity

This weekend is the NFL’s combine: where all of the top prospects for the 2015 draft are invited to show off their skills to recruiting coaches. In honor of it, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell decided to do one of the more commonly known drills — the 40-year dash.

It is nice to see Goodell giving back to charity after the multitude of problems the NFL faced in 2014: it is certainly for a good cause, St. Jude’s Children Hospital. As for his time, he did achieve a very mediocre 5.53, which beat out Rich Eisen’s 5.98.
