James Dator thought that Hawley would run the 40-yard dash in 7.2 seconds after he saw the size of the bag stand in the video. He looked at the number of frames in the video and compared it to the number of inches Hawley ran. According to the outlet, Hawley ran 5 inches per frame.
John Ross ran the 40-yard dash in 4.22 seconds, which was the fastest by a player at the combine. The fastest class since the combine began tracking speed in 2003 was the scouting combine class.
The average time was three seconds off.
