Patriots wide receiver Damiere Byrd makes it look easy

When he runs, he’s upright and compact. His arms pump in an effortless motion. He looks relaxed. It’s deceiving. Just ask his teammates. Byrd’s short compact stride makes it look like he’s out for a casual jog. With the snap of your fingers, he’s yards ahead of everyone.

“It's weird watching Damiere play, because when you look at him, he runs so effortlessly,” Patriots receiver Jakobi Meyers said. “It's like he's jogging out there, just taking his time striding. But I look across and see how far ahead he is than me, and I'm like, there's no way that he was running that fast all this time.
