The NFL Combine is back for the first time since 2020, and with it comes one of the most popular events to watch: the 40-yard dash.Fans mi sed out on a chance to watch burners like Anthony Schwartz, Ja'Marr Chase and Rondale Moore tear up the turf in pursuit of John Ro s' 2017 record of 4.22 seconds last season as schools held pro days in an effort to give their athletes a chance to have miniature combines.No one from last year's group reached the record, with Schwartz posting the fastest time in the field at 4.27 seconds.This year's competition was without one of the draft's fastest runners, as Alabama wide JJ Arcega-Whiteside Jersey receiver Jameson Williams is still recovering from a torn ACL suffered in the national championship game. But several other speedsters made great runs at Ro s' record, including Baylor cornerback Kalon Barnes (4.23) and UTSA cornerback Tariq Woolen (4.26), both of whom produced top-five all-time finishes in the 40-yard dash.In all, three players produces sub-4.3 times, while 31 players produced sub-4.40 times. If speed kills, then this cla s is full of killers.The Sporting News tracked the fastest performances at the 2022 NFL Combine, including an overall tracker and breakdowns by position.2022 NFL Draft 40 timesHere Wilbert Montgomery Jersey are the fastest 40 times recorded during the 2022 NFL Combine.The table will be updated as 40 times are recorded over the four-day period of player workouts.RankPlayerPositionSchool40 time1.Kalon BarnesCBBaylor4.232.Tariq WoolenCBUTSA4.263.Tyquan ThorntonWRBaylor4.284.Velus JonesWRTenne see4.315.Calvin Austin IIIWRMemphis4.326.Zyon McCollumCBSam Houston State4.337.Danny GrayWRSMU4.338.Nick Cro sSMaryland4.349.Bo MeltonWRRutgers4.3410.Christian WatsonWRNorth Dakota State4.3611.Percy ButlerSLouisiana4.3612.JT WoodsSBaylor4.3613.Tycen AndersonSToledo4.3614.Alontae TaylorCBTenne see4.3615.Amare BarnoEDGEVirginia Tech4.3616.Pierre StrongRBSouth Dakota State4.3717.Lewis CineSGeorgia4.3718.Isiah PachecoRBRutgers4.3719.Cobie DurantCBSouth Carolina State4.3820.Tariq Castro-FieldsCBPenn State4.3821.Dax HillSMichigan4.3822.Ty ChandlerRBNorth Carolina4.3823.Kenneth Walker IIIRBMichigan State4.3824.D'vonte PriceRBFlorida International4.3825.Garrett WilsonWROhio State4.3826.Cam Taylor-BrittCBNebraska4.3827.Damarri MathisCBPitt4.3928.Jalyn Armour-DavisCBAlabama4.3929.Kalir ElamCBFlorida4.3930.Chris OlaveWROhio State4.3931.Breece HallRBIowa State4.3932.Josh ThompsonCBTexas4.4033.Zamir WhiteRBGeorgia4.40NFL COMBINE RECORDS: Those are the top 20 40 times overall.
