Giants Now (3/2): Winners of 2020 NFL Scouting Combine

now-march-2

Who was the fastest, strongest, quickest in Indianapolis?

The 2020 NFL Scouting Combine has officially come to a close. Defensive backs took stage on the final day, closing the book on an eventful week in Indianapolis. What happened there will likely shake up draft boards and, of course, mock drafts. For now, here is a look at the best performances of 2020:

Fastest 40-yard dash: WR Henry Ruggs, Alabama (4.27 seconds)

Most reps in 225-pound bench press: OL Netane Muti, Fresno State (44 reps)

Highest vertical: WR Donovan Peoples-Jones, Michigan (44.5")

Longest broad jump: WR Donovan Peoples-Jones, Michigan (11'7")

Fastest 3-cone drill: WR Denzel Mims, Baylor (6.66 seconds)

Fastest 20-yard shuttle: RB JaMycal Hasty, Baylor (4.03 seconds)

CB Jeff Okudah returns after taking hard fall during NFL combine workout

Ohio State cornerback Jeff Okudah, the No. 4 overall prospect in Jeremiah’s rankings, withdrew from positions drills after taking a hard fall on the final night of the combine. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound Okudah, however, returned to complete the track events, posting impressive marks with a 41-inch vertical and 11-foot-3 broad jump.

Judging by his tweet afterwards, it looks like he will be just fine as the fall didn't hurt his sense of humor.
