Thereβs no bigger spotlight at a combine than the 40 yard dash.
Every player wants to post a number that makes scouts raise their eyebrows.
But hereβs the truth most athletes fail to understand. Your time isnβt ruined at the 20 yard mark. Itβs usually blown before your foot ever leaves the line.

Letβs break down the five most common mistakes that sabotage your 40 time before you even start.
