Notre Dame TE Tyler Eifert ran "unofficial" forty times of 4.60 and 4.62 at the NFL Scouting Combine, before being credited with an "official" forty time of 4.68.
The 4.60 and 4.62 were hand timed by NFL Network. Eifert adds the impressive times to his 9-foot-11 broad jump, 35 1/2-inch vertical, and 22 bench press reps at 225 pounds. He's now pulling away from fellow top tight end prospect Zach Ertz, who ran 4.76 and had worse numbers in every athletic drill. Eifert is setting himself up as an almost certain first-round pick.
