Diaby, Abdullah shine on first day of NFL Scouting Combine

The YaYa and Yasir show continued on Thursday at the first day of the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis.

YaYa Diaby and Yasir Abdullah, perhaps the two biggest stars on the 2022 Cardinal defense, each delivered strong performances on the most important day of their respective professional careers so far.

Diaby ran the 40-yard dash in a time of 4.51, an absurdly fast time for a 6’3, 263-pound defensive lineman. His 1.56 10-yard split during that 40 was the second fastest of any defensive lineman, placing behind only Georgia’s Nolan Smith.

The first step @greatyaya4 is rollin’
