Velus Jones Jr. runs blazing fast 40 at NFL Combine

From the breakout senior season at Tennessee, to an impressive week at the Senior Bowl — Velus Jones Jr. is making the most of his NFL Draft season. He backed it all up on Thursday night in Indianapolis, running one of the fastest times recorded at this year’s NFL Combine.

Jones ran a blazing fast 4.32 second 40 yard dash, solidifying what everyone saw on tape during the 2021 season.

Jones has been talked up recently by draft media, and now everyone sees why. He’s gone from a return specialist only, to a guy that NFL teams might just end up spending a day two selection on.
