Ross is best known for his 4.22-second 40-yard dash at the 2017 NFL Combine, a record recently broken by Xavier Worthy’s 4.21-second dash. The 5-foot-11 receiver is returning to the NFL after an unexpected retirement before the 2023 season with the Kansas City Chiefs. Ross, 28, had a five-season stint in the NFL, initially drafted ninth overall by the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite high expectations, he struggled to deliver, with his best season in 2019 recording only 28 receptions for 506 yards in eight games. In his four years with the Bengals, Ross totaled 51 receptions for 733 yards and 10 touchdowns. He became a free agent in 2021 and joined the New York Giants, where he managed just 11 receptions for 224 yards and one touchdown over 10 games. Overall, in 37 games and 21 starts, Ross has 62 receptions for 957 yards and 11 touchdowns in his career.May 23, 2024
