Video: Kenyan Drake shows how he's training for the NFL Combine 40-yard dash

This is pretty awesome.

This is pretty awesome. Former Alabama running back Kenyan Drake, who was arguably the hero during the Tide's 45-40 win over the Clemson Tigers in the College Football Playoff National Championship, is ready to take the next step in his career. Drake, who will participate in this year's 2016 NFL Combine in Indianapolis this month. posted a video to his Instagram account to give a little glimpse of how he's training for the 40-yard dash portion of the combine.

Per NFL Draft Scout.com, Drake is projected to run a 4.49 40-yard dash — which would be pretty impressive given Drake's 6-foot-1, 210 pound frame. We'll see how well Drake does come the end of this month.
