Baylor wide receiver Denzel Mims had already parlayed his great senior season with a terrific showing at the Reese’s Senior Bowl in January, but on Thursday evening at the NFL Combine he took his stock to another level with his performance in the testing portion of the event.

After measuring in at 6-foot-2-inches and 207-pounds, Mims “wowed” those in attendance and watching live on television when he dropped some of the most impressive combine numbers for receivers at the event and ranked about the top 16 in every testing event. There are 55 wide receivers competing at the combine.

The most impressive number came in the 40-yard dash where Mims posted an official 4.38-second, best for third among receivers. Mims (6-2, 207) fell behind a 4.27 second time from Alabama’s Henry Ruggs’ (5-11, 188) and a 4.35-second time from Southern Mississippi’s Quez Walker (6-0, 188).

Below the video are Mims’ final testing numbers from Thursday evening in six events. 

EVENT OFFICIAL MEASUREMENT WR RANK
40-yard dash 4.38 seconds 3
Bench (225) 16 reps 14
Vertical Jump 38.5” 10
Broad Jump 131.0” 4
