The NFL Rookie Watch recently shared a video of famous Internet personality Zachariah Branch. The video demonstrates how Zachariah hit 26 MPH on a treadmill during his training. Measuring Zachariah’s speed the Twitter page said, “That is 1.33 MPH short of Usain Bolt’s record top speed of 27.33 MPH.” But after observing the accuracy of Zachariah’s speed, former Olympian Trey Hardee seemed a little disappointed.
Zachariah Branch reportedly hit 26 MPH during training recently.
That is 1.33 MPH short of Usain Bolt’s record top speed of 27.33 MPH.
Branch is already on the radar of NFL teams and he’s just a FRESHMAN at USC.

Hardee showed his disapproval of NFL Rookie Watch’s comparison of Zachariah with the greatest athlete of all time, Usain Bolt. Hardee retweeted the post saying, “Your daily reminder that comparing anything remotely fast to
@usainbolt is disingenuous & misleading. Hopping on a moving walk away for 4 seconds isn’t the same zip code as accelerating to, hitting, and sustaining the fastest Speeds ever recorded by the human species. Thanks…”
Hardee indicates that Zachariah only ran 4 seconds to be considered the fastest man on the planet by the NFL Rookie Watch, which is upsetting for him. However, track and field stars Tyson Gay and Yohan Blake have equaled Bolt’s speed but nobody has topped Bolt to date.
