The javelin is a field event. However, at Utah, it means track and speed sprinting. Javelin Guidry burned down the 40 at the NFL Scouting Combine Sunday, clocking 4.29.

So, who is Guidry? He’s a 5-foot-9, 191-pound cornerback. He did 21 reps of 225 pounds, too. So, that means strength and speed.
A lot of info from his Utah bio:
2019: Honorable mention All-Pac-12 … played in all 14 games with 12 starts at nickel back … 48 tackles … tied for third on the team with six pass breakups …
