SEC's fastest, strongest players at the 2020 NFL Combine
Southeastern Conference players once again led the way at the combine.
The 2020 NFL Combine is in the books from Indianapolis and the players from the SEC dominated the leader boards when it comes to the fastest players to compete at the event.
Taking a look at the strongest players to compete at the event, the SEC did well there, too.
We’ve taken the liberty of rounding up the top SEC performers in terms of 40-yard dash times and the bench press and listed them out below.

I believe Daniel Thomas also hit 24 reps on the bench press. Not that any of this matters but I was very impressed at that coming from a safety.
I think Albert Okwuegbunam should get an honorable mention. While he did not have a top 10 40 yard dash, he did have the 4th fastest 40 time of any TE in recent history.
The man is 6’5, 258 and ran a 4.49!
