Fastest 40-yard Dash Times in NFL Combine History
36. . . . Marquise Goodwin. 10. player
Marquise Goodwin is a former track star who used his track experience to excel in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine.
At the 2013 Combine, Marquise Goodwin registered as the fastest man there with his 40-yard dash time of 4.27.
It should be no surprise that he earned one of the speediest times because he was a four-time All-American at the University of Texas in track and field. Running a 40 was second nature.
The former Longhorn was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft and collected 17 receptions for 283 receiving yards with three touchdowns during his rookie year.
Goodwin’s best year with Buffalo was in 2016 when he snagged 29 receptions for 431 receiving yards with three touchdowns.
In 2017, the former third-round pick signed a two-year deal with the San Francisco 49ers. He had a career year (56 receptions for 962 yards with two touchdowns).
He would spend two more seasons with San Fran, and after that, he would land with the Eagles for a stint that never got going thanks in part to COVID. He then transitioned to the Chicago Bears for a short time and is currently with the Seattle Seahawks.
During the 2022 NFL season, he collected 27 receptions for 387 yards with four touchdowns.
