In addition to learning that he won the NFL's fastest man competition three times, I heard from a source (whose accuracy I can't confirm) that Green actually beat Deion Sanders in a 40 yard dash when Sanders joined the team '99.

I think DG won four times. That fastest man competition was quite an event back in the day, televised even, with Green, Willie Gault, Herschel Walker, among others.
