Manti Te'o may have performed admirably in his press conference with a massive media horde on Saturday, but he left a little bit to be desired during his 40-yard-dash performances at the NFL Scouting Combine Monday.

The former Notre Dame linebacker clocked unofficial hand-times of 4.81 and 4.8 in his two attempts, neither of which were awful, but also failed to show the explosiveness many teams would be looking for in a first-round pick.

NFL Network caught the reaction of Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh after Te'o's first run, which showed him mouthing the words "4.83" and shaking his head.
