Here are the “unofficial” and some “official” combine 40 times for the Defensive Backs from Tuesday’s NFL combine action. Official times posted later. The defensive backs seemed quite a bit less athletic than the wide receiver group. I guess that means more NFL passing records will fall in coming years.
