Georgia defensive lineman Jordan Davis may be able to claim the most impressive feat of the NFL Combine in 2022.

Davis, the 6-foot-6, 341-pound star of the Bulldogs defense, wowed scouts and executives on Saturday by posting an official 40 time of 4.78.

That is a solid 40 time in any context, but there is no precedent for a time like that at Davis’ weight. In fact, Davis actually outran Patrick Mahomes’ combine 40 time by two-hundreths of a second. His measurements are also ridiculous across the board by combine standards.

This is faster than Patrick Mahomes' 40 time (4.80) despite Jordan Davis weighing 116 pounds more than Mahomes https://t.co/jS2QJMwLwD

Jordan Davis

6-6 (96th percentile)
341 lbs (92nd percentile)
40-yard: 4.82 (96th percentile)
10-yard: 1.68 (85th percentile)

That run by Davis at that size is one of the wildest things the Combine has ever recorded

Davis is part of a ridiculous class of defensive players in this year’s draft. Georgia boasts a number of those players, and their school is going to produce a whole lot of picks on the first two days of the draft.
