Stock up for Capehart; Parker’s ‘Revival’ Continues
Day 1 of on-field workouts at the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis on Thursday featured impressive performances from a pair of Clemson defensive linemen – tackle DeMonte Capehart and edge rusher T.J. Parker.
The 6-foot-5, 313-pound Capehart posted a time of 4.85 seconds in the 40-yard dash, a 10-yard split of 1.71 seconds, a vertical jump of 33.5 inches and a broad jump of 8 feet, 11 inches.
NFL.com draft analyst Chad Reuter named Capehart as one player whose stock is up after his showing at the combine — one of the players “who undoubtedly impressed the league’s personnel decision-makers with their on-field performance” on Day 1.
