Bengals LB Malik Jefferson says the NFL combine is ‘absolute hell’
Bengals rookie linebacker Malik Jefferson had a pretty good scouting combine. He ran a 4.52 second 40-yard dash, bench pressed 225 pounds 27 time and jumped very well.
Still, Jefferson was no a fan of the combine at all.
“I learned a lot about this process,” Jefferson told Will Brinson of CBS Sports. “I don’t agree with how they do it. Because you go through these extreme months of training and you go to the combine, the combine is absolute hell, nobody wants to be there after Day 2 because you get no sleep. You don’t get to exercise, they expect you to be able to workout like a superhuman on the last day. And they ask you awful questions.
