Move over, Anthony Richardson. There's a new quarterback athletic marvel at the NFL scouting combine.
On Saturday in Indianapolis, Arkansas' Taylen Green broke Richardson's top marks at the position since 2003 for both the vertical leap and broad jump. Green's 43½-inch vertical topped Richardson's previous high by three inches, while his 11-2 broad jump beat the Indianapolis Colts signal-caller's measurement by five inches.
Then, Green reeled off a 4.36-second 40-yard dash time. That stood as the second-best time for any quarterback since 2003, trailing only Reggie McNeal in 2006 (4.35 seconds). Richardson, for comparison, logged a 4.43-second mark in 2023.
Green didn't even bother with a second attempt after his initial time.
