A couple of guys who recently signed contracts with the Buffalo Bills might be set to run a race, of sorts.
On Thursday, the Bills inked running back Matt Breida to a one-year deal. If he’s known for one thing, it’s speed.
Well, Isaiah McKenzie, the gadget man and first in line to be Buffalo’s return man in 2021 after recently re-signing with the team, decided to challenge Breida’s quickness.
Breida took to his Twitter account to express his happiness after the news of his signing was announced. McKenzie noticed, and said “it’ll suck if someone was faster than you” to Breida.
A little friendly trash talk, but Breida took things in stride. He’s ready to find out the answer:
Lmao will just have to find out💨🙏🏾

During this year’s training camp, perhaps the Bills and their social media team will put this challenge together and let fans get in on the fun. It has to be at least recorded, right? Would be pretty cool, but we also still need Josh Allen vs. Patrick Mahomes and their throwing challenge, too…
For what it’s worth, at the 2017 NFL Scouting Combine, McKenzie, a Georgia product, ran a 4.42 40-yard dash time. Breida, who left college at Georgia Southern that same year, was not at the combine but at his pro day reportedly ran a 4.38.
