In Atlanta this weekend for promotional purposes with Puma, eight-time Olympic Gold medalist Usain Bolt just turned heads at Mercedes-Benz Stadium — in sweats and sneakers no less.

Bolt ran an electronic-timed 4.22 in the 40-yard dash, tying the all-time fastest mark set at the NFL Combine by former Washington speedster John Ross. Ross broke Chris Johnson's record two years ago in Indianapolis on his first run and didn't try a second attempt.

One of the world's fastest men, Bolt is the only athlete in history to win Olympic 100m and 200m titles at three consecutive Olympics (2008, 2012 and 2016).

The Jamaican retired sprinter, 32, doesn't look like he has lost any of his world-class jets. He recently declared that his "sports life is over" and is looking to gain appeal in the business world, much like former USA gold medalist Michael Johnson.

He isn't signing with any NFL team, sorry!
