Most of the Michigan contingent has had their turn of the initial stages of the NFL Scouting Combine, but with linebackers doing the bench press on Friday night, one former Wolverine set the bar very high.
As a VIPER in the Michigan defense, Khaleke Hudson qualifies as a linebacker rather than a defensive back, naturally, and he proved just how strong he is.
While he didn’t set this year’s record for most reps of 225-pounds — that distinction went to Fresno State offensive lineman Netane Muti with 44 reps, Hudson managed more than any non-linemen, and the most of any linebacker, putting the bar up an astounding 30 times.

With defensive backs up next, it’s likely safe to say that he will go down as the strongest non-lineman in this draft.
