Every year, the NFL Combine brings together some of the best athletes in the FBS and college football as a whole. Some players like running backs and wide receivers can improve their draft stocks by running fast times in the 40-yard dash. Others, like kickers and punters, may not even need to run the 40 because teams may not value that data.
Either way, no matter who the player is, a fast 40 time sure doesn’t hurt one’s draft hopes.
Here’s a look at the fastest 40 times from the NFL Combine for kickers and punters (disclaimer: this is using data NFL.com, which only goes back to the mid-2000s):
