blazing Utah deep threat with NFL-track speed
Cliff Russell was known at Utah as the fastest player on the team, reportedly clocked at 4.37 in the 40, and that kind of speed made him a true field-stretcher rather than just a volume receiver[8]. In Utah’s stat archive, he showed big-play ability with efficient catches, including a 5-catch, 48-yard outing in 2001, and he later became a third-round NFL draft pick, which reinforces that evaluators saw real upside[2][1]. If you want a WR who can threaten coverage vertically and change spacing for everyone else, Russell is the type of athlete who matters.
