In the previous 14 NFL Scouting Combines, no tight end had cleared 11 feet in the standing broad jump. On Saturday, three did.
Virginia Tech tight end Bucky Hodges led the way with a jump of 134 inches - 11 feet, 2 inches.
Miami (Fla.)'s David Njoku finished 1 inch behind Hodges, and Iowa's George Kittle hit 11 feet even with his effort at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
Those monster leaps left the 127-inch jump of Florida International's Jonnu Smith and the 126-inch jump of South Alabama's Gerald Everett behind, when in other years those performances might have bested the rest of the competition.
