Thirteen players ran the 40-yard dash in 4.40 seconds or faster at the 2018 NFL Combine. The Green Bay Packers now have four of them on their roster, as astute Twitter user @buzzboy3 noted on Thursday.
Green Bay drafted wide receiver Jaire Alexander and his 4.38 speed with their first selection in the draft last April, then picked up wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (4.37) in round five. Following final cuts, general manager Brian Gutekunst also signed cornerback Tony Brown, he of the 4.35-second time, to the practice squad.
