The Los Angeles Rams’ roster is littered with great athletes. It’s part of the reason they’re expected to be one of the best teams in football this season. Whether it’s speed, leaping ability or short-area quickness, the Rams boast some elite talent on both offense and defense.
When it comes to sprinting speed, there are a number of players who come to mind as good candidates to succeed on the track. With the 2020 Olympics taking place in Tokyo right now, the Rams posed the following question to their players: Which four Rams players would you put on a 4×100 meter relay team?
The common selections were Jalen Ramsey, Tutu Atwell and DeSean Jackson, with Robert Woods and Van Jefferson earning mentions from their teammates, too.

Woods was an All-USA high school track and field selection in high school as a track star, so he has plenty of speed to burn. Ramsey was part of Florida State’s 4×100 relay team, as well, which makes him a strong pick for this hypothetical team.
Atwell and Jackson are just absolute blazers on the field and on the track, with Atwell running a 4.32 40-yard dash this year. They would be must-picks for this team, while Jefferson has sneaky speed too.
So who would you pick for a 4×100 team?
