The 2014 NFL Combine is in the books for the running backs and leading the field in the 40-yard dash was Kent State’s diminutive playmaker, Dri Archer. In fact, Archer was just two hundredths of a second from breaking the Combine record set by Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson in 2008 when he finished in 4.24 seconds.
NFL Combine 2014: Results for running backs
Dri Archer was just two hundredths from breaking Chris Johnson’s record for the fastest 40 yard dash in NFL Combine history, and other players like Jerrick McKinnon had solid showings as well.
Archer was far from the only running back that had a solid weekend, though. Georgia State’s Jerrick McKinnon, Baylor’s Lache Seastrunk and Auburn’s Tre Mason each put up impressive numbers as well.
