INDIANAPOLIS -- The big men opened the workout portion of the NFL scouting combine Thursday in Lucas Oil Stadium. It didn't take long for one of them to set the tone.
The University of Pittsburgh's Calijah Kancey, at 6-foot-1, 281 pounds, had a 4.67 official time in the 40-yard dash, the fastest time by a defensive tackle at the combine since 2006, when ESPN Stats & Information began tracking data from the event.
Kancey was in the first group of players at the combine to participate in the on-field workouts. The defensive linemen and linebackers, divided into three groups, were the first to do the on-field drills.
