Former Raiders returner Jacoby Ford to compete in All-Star Speed Tournament

Some of the fastest players in recent NFL seasons will compete in a head-to-head 40-yard dash tournament on June 29, including former Oakland Raiders return man, Jacoby Ford. The tournament, named 40 Yards of Gold, will feature some big name players, and will test the speed in a 24-man bracket.

The bracket will be laid out so that 12 offensive players, and twelve defensive players will do battle against each other. The winner of each division, or side of the bracket, will then race in the final. Whoever wins that will be dubbed the fastest player.

Most of the contestants are already known, but there will be two mystery participants in the event as well.
