Micah Parsons, listed at 245 pounds, wins NFL's Fastest Man race

One of the NFL's most electric rookies now holds the title as its fastest man.

The Dallas Cowboys rookie scored an upset win in the Fastest Man portion of the Pro Bowl Skills Showdown on Thursday, outracing a field of three other players, who may or may not have been taking the challenge as seriously as him.

The 6-foot-3, 245 pound Parsons, the heaviest player in the field by nearly 20 pounds, beat out Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill, Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb and teammate Trevon Diggs in the 40-yard dash.
