Georgia Bulldogs running back Zamir White helped his NFL draft stock with an impressive 40-yard dash at the 2022 NFL combine. White is known as a bruising, tough-to-tackle running back, but he showed his speed at the combine.
White’s unofficial time of 4.47 was later officially timed as a 4.40. White finished as the seventh-fastest running back in the event, but was only 0.03 seconds off the fastest time for a running back.
White’s 40-yard dash time is surprisingly faster than James Cook’s time. Here’s a look at Zamir ‘Zeus’ White’s 40-yard dash at the NFL combine:

White is one of the top backs in the 2022 NFL draft. He still has work to do as a receiver, but he is not a fun guy to tackle. White ran for 25 touchdowns in three seasons with the Bulldogs.
White ended his career with a national championship, 856 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns in 2021.
White’s other NFL combine results include a 33.5 inch vertical jump and the tied for best broad jump at 10 feet, 8 inches. Neither White nor Cook participated in the bench press.
