The word freakish gets thrown around a lot around NFL draft time, but there really isn’t another way to describe former Illinois receiver Josh Imatorbhebhe’s jumping ability.
Imatorbhebhe, then committed to USC, first rose to national prominence in 2015 when, three months after his 17th birthday, he supposedly posted a 46" vertical leap at a Nike football camp. That mark tied the all-time combine record set by North Carolina’s Gerald Sensabaugh in 2005, but keep in mind that Imatorbhebhe had just finished his junior year of high school. Another video from the same camp purports to show Imatorbhebhe leaping 47.
