Ted Ginn Jr., Jalen Myrick are favorites in 40-yard dash tournament
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. and other NFL players will put their speed to the test Saturday at the first-ever 40 Yards of Gold tournament at the BB&T Center in Sunrise, Fla.
Ginn declared in May that he's the fastest wide receiver in the league, and oddsmakers seem to agree with that assertion, as he's listed as the favorite to win the offensive division.
