Ginn might be fast — he ran a 4.28 40 time at the NFL Scouting Combine — but he’s not Usain Bolt fast, right? Believe it or not, Ginn once beat the Olympic champion in a high school track meet. Ginn was a national champion in the 110-meter hurdles, including part of a 4x 100-meter relay team that, in his senior year, beat a team led by Bolt. There aren’t many people that can say that they beat the fastest man in the world, but Ginn is one of them.
