"These are world-class athletes," Metcalf said afterward on NBC streaming service Peacock, which broadcast the event, when asked whether he learned anything by competing in the event.

So, like I said, just excited to be out here.".

Former Olympic sprinter Ato Boldon said on the broadcast beforehand that something in the range of 10.6-10.7 would be a good time for the 6-foot-4, 229-pound Metcalf.

"He did not embarrass himself," Boldon said of Metcalf.

A deferential and appreciative Metcalf said on the Peacock broadcast that he wanted to test his speed "against world-class athletes like this." He called the opportunity to do so a blessing.

Asked why he wasn't afraid of the risk he could be taking by competing against professionals, Metcalf said: "Because I'm a football player and an athlete first, and a man of God.

Great run by DK," Boldon said on the broadcast

Metcalf was asked in his postrace interview on Peacock if his performance will convince him that he should make another run at qualifying for the Olympic team, and perhaps lose some weight during the NFL offseason to aid his speed

"Like I said, just excited."
