Video: Lamar Jackson's cousin shows off speed.See the Deerfield Beach junior running back turn on the jets.Jakari Norwood of
Deerfield Beach (Fla.) is a blur on the gridiron.
The junior running back has ultra-athleticism in his blood — seeing how last year's Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson is his older cousin. Jackson, the dynamic quarterback for the Louisville Cardinals, won college football's most prestigious award as a sophomore.
Norwood apparently shares Jackson's genes, running a blazing 4.48 second 40-yard dash.
The 5-foot-10, 175-pound spark plug possesses blinding speed, as seen in the video above. Norwood posted 793 rushing yards, 192 receiving yards and 13 total touchdowns last season in helping the Bucks reach the Florida Class 8A state semifinals.
Norwood holds three Division I offers from Morgan State, North Carolina Central and Southern Miss. But his numbers and offers should increase with an expanded role this fall.
