Just as we saw in the BCS, Manti Te’o lacks speed

PLAYERS: Manti Te'o
TEAMS:
Baltimore_ravens_head_5f78
It was quite obvious to anyone watching the BCS National Title Game that Manti Te’o wasn’t the fleetest of foot, as Eddie Lacy and his offensive lineman ran by him all night long. He confirmed that at the NFL Scouting Combine, and Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh’s reaction was simply priceless. Te’o's 40 time was a 4.81 unofficially. That means it could be slower once it becomes official. That’s been the pattern for the 40 the last few days. The other big story out of the Combine surrounding Te’o is his sexual preference.
