Mekhi Becton wasn’t the only offensive linemen turning heads during Saturday’s edition of the NFL Scouting Combine. No, Iowa’s Tristan Wirfs is a top prospect in his own right and refused to be overshadowed.
The 6-foot-5, 320-pound blocker tallied a 4.85 40-yard dash which was the best mark of any offensive linemen in attendance. He didn’t stop there. Wirfs went on post a 36.5-inch vertical jump which is a modern record among offensive linemen. He also posted a 10-foot-1 broad jump, tying the all-time record among O-linemen set by Kolton Miller a few years ago.
A consensus first-round talent, Wirfs showcased the athletic tools that should cement his status as a top prospect going into April’s draft. His performance matches the tape where Wirfs looks and plays like an elite athlete for the position.
