Stay up to date with everything that happens during on-field workouts in Indianapolis
For the first time this week, Friday night brought fireworks to Lucas Oil Stadium. Kentucky cornerback Maxwell Hairston and South Carolina safety Nick Emmanwori dazzled with historically strong performances. Meanwhile, LSU tight end Mason Taylor put his best foot forward for his name to be included among the top tight end prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft.
Quarterbacks, running backs and wide receivers take the field tomorrow. Texas running back Jaydon Blue and Texas wide receiver Isaiah Bond have each said that they will beat the 40-yard dash record set by former teammate Xavier Worthy at last year’s NFL Scouting Combine.
Stay tuned below for live updates from the NFL combine.

Bowling Green’s Harold Fannin stock held up by athletic potential
Fannin will not be the biggest tight end — he measured 6-foot-3 2/8″, 241 pounds — so his athletic testing is important. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.72 seconds unofficially and ranked 9th among 14 tight ends that competed in the broad jump.
Slow 40-time for Texas TE
Gunnar Helm, who broke out in his final season with the Longhorns, catching 60 passes, just ran a 4.93u in the 40-yard dash. Yikes.
A limited group of tight ends
Michigan’s Colston Loveland, Penn State’s Tyler Warren and Miami’s Elijah Arroyo will sit out this evening’s festivities.
2025 CBs so fast they make other CBs look not fast
Best combine performance ever?
Combine TE broad jumps
Nebraska TE with huge broad jump
That’s a huge number for a tight end. Placing him in the 93rd percentile at the position since 1999. And Fidone legitimately looks like an oversized wide receiver on film. He measured in at 6-foot-5.
Cannot get enough Emmanwori nuggets
Tight ends in the Top 100 prospect rankings
- Colston Loveland, Michigan (No. 15)
- Tyler Warren, Penn State (No. 19)
- Harold Fannin Jr., Bowling Green (No. 53)
- Gunnar Helm, Texas (No. 59)
- Elijah Arroyo, Miami (No. 68)
- Mason Taylor, LSU (No. 81)
Context on Malaki Starks’ 10-yard split
The 1.51 10-yard split for Malaki Starks is damn good. Tied for second-fastest among all safeties in attendance.
For perspective, same 10-yard split as Devon Achane.

Perspective on Emmanwori’s historic workout
When Jeremy Chinn worked out in 2020, I didn’t think five years later we’d have a “more explosive Jeremy Chinn” combine comparison, but here we are, with Nick Emmanwori

Nick Emmanwori continues to rock at the combine
43″ vertical jump, 11’6″ broad jump, 4.40u 40 + this skillset & production https://t.co/rjkSc2uRYp

Nick Emmanwori is targeting a faster time on his second run
4.40u for South Carolina safety Nick Emmanwori!

Iowa State CB quietly had a strong day of his own
High-waisted individual so you can not expect him to look as fluid as smaller players through drills, but Darien Porter looked good, relatively.
Darien Porter is a CB prospect in the 2025 draft class. He scored an unofficial 9.99 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 4 out of 2480 CB from 1987 to 2025.

Top of the CB group in the 40-yard dash
Official 40-yard dash times from the cornerback group are in.
Maxwell Hairston (24.25 mph top speed) checked in with a 4.28o forty, tied for the fifth-fastest time by a cornerback at the Combine since 2003.

Nick Emmanwori’s vertical jump
The South Carolina safety followed his 11-foot-6 broad jump with a silly 43-inch vertical. Those results are both in the 98th percentile at the safety position since 1999. My word.
Holllllly!!!
Nick Emmanwori just launched to 43” on the vert!

Maxwell Hairston continuing strong performance
The testing is not all Hairston has done well today. He has looked really good through the on-field portion of the day as well.
Maxwell Hairston with effortless speed in DB drills 🙌
