Alabama defensive lineman Quinnen Williams ran the 40-yard dash in 4.83 seconds on Sunday in Indianapolis, the fourth-fastest time by any 300-pound player at the NFL Scouting Combine since 2003.
The 6-foot-3, 303-pound prospect’s time trailed only Jaye Howard (4.82 in 2012), Luis Castillo (4.80 in 2005) and Tank Johnson (4.69 in 2004) among 300-pounders, per NFL.com.
Williams, a potential top-5 draft pick, tallied 8.0 sacks and 19.5 tackles for loss in 15 games last season at Alabama.
The Crimson Tide standout ran faster than Ohio State quarterback Dwayne Haskins (5.04 seconds) this weekend.
Williams was also faster than previous Combine participants such as J.J. Watt (4.84 at 290 pounds in 2011), Geno Atkins (4.85 at 293 in 2010) and Daron Payne (4.90 at 311 in 2018), per ESPN Stats & Info.
