Video: Former Mizzou star Shane Ray wins $10,000 in race against Demarcus Ware
Former Missouri defensive end Shane Ray was a nightmare for SEC tackles because of his speed off of the edge. His Denver Broncos teammate, Demarcus Ware, learned about Ray’s speed the hard way.
In an attempt to prove he’s still got it, Ware, one of the NFL’s top pass rushers of the last decade, raced Ray with $10,000 on the line. Ware posted a video of the race on Instagram.
According to the tape, it looks like Ray edged him by just a hair.

It’s preseason, meaning NFL players are trying to find ways to pass the time until the real action begins. Beating a mentor and picking up a nice chunk of cash isn’t a bad way for Ray to enjoy the last bit of camp.
