It takes remarkable amounts of talent to play one sport at the Division I level. However, the players with the athleticism to do so are truly remarkable, like Bo Jackson or Deion Sanders. One of the players who, arguably, has the raw talent to play multiple sports is USC wide receiver, Jordan Addison. However, like many others, instead of playing two sports, Addison was forced to choose one over the other.

While speaking to the media following practice, Jordan Addison revealed that if he didn’t play football he would have run track.

“Track,” Jordan Addison said. “I like to play track–run track.”

“I get in the four by one [hundred meters] and the long jump. So, y’all contact the track coach. Tell him I want to try and run.”

USC’s track and field coach, Quincy Watts, should probably take Jordan Addison up on that offer. Addison is an incredibly talented athlete and it’s easy to see him dominating on the track.
