Call of Duty: Warzone seems to have a secret Merc Foregrip movement speed buff unspecified in the June 29 Season 4 update.
CoD Season 4 Reloaded update on June 29 brought in some changes to both Modern Warfare and Warzone. Like any other update, it brought about changes to the playlist and weapons, and also included some general and bug fixes.
With the inclusion of loadouts, players can create different combinations of attachments with weapons. Each providing different benefits and uses, however, loadouts have never improved movement speed until now.

Secert Merc Foregrip Movement Speed Buff
YouTuber JCODGaming posted a clip on his Twitter showing the difference in movement speed when holding a UZI with and without a Merc Foregrip.
The player posted a side-by-side clip comparing the movement speed. With a timer at the top of the screen, the player sprints to the other side of the map. The base gun took 11.662 seconds to reach the end whilst the Merc Foregrip UZI took 11.345 seconds.
Despite the difference being only a few milliseconds, that little boost could be the difference in a fight. The player claims that the Merc Foregrip provides an additional 3% boost to movement speed.
Skeptical players have asked if it works with other weapons. The player replied saying that it also works on Rifles, LMGs, and SMGs.
Call of Duty and Infinity Ward are yet to comment on this secret movement speed buff. Whether it will be fixed, players can use this buff to run away or surprise an opponent.
