    Just hire The Freeze. He’s almost as fast as Bolt and would cost a lot less.

    In the 80's I think it was Reynaldo Neymia ( I might be spelling his name wrong). He tried with San Francisco and Dallas I think. Then there was Bob Hayes in the 60s. That was before my time

    Nehemiah played for the 49ers. He lasted 3 or 4 years.

    If I recall correctly, he took a nasty hit and that really helped him in his decision to go back to his track career.

    Carl Lewis was drafted by the Cowboys in the 12th round in 1984, and was also drafted by the Chicago Bulls in the 10th round the same year. He never played High School football or basketball.
