‘I THOUGHT I WAS SLOW!’: Penn State S Jaylen Reed Impresses With 40 Time

Indianapolis— Penn State safety Jaylen Reed completed his time at this year’s NFL Combine Friday evening in Indianapolis.

He ran the 40-yard dash and did well, posting an official time of 4.49.

Reed’s time was unofficially clocked at 4.50 but the official time was just a smidge faster.

After his run, Reed had a little fun on social media.

4.49 OFFICIAL I THOUGHT I WAS SLOW!!!,” Reed posted to Twitter. We. Take That!”

Reed talked with reporters Thursday and wasn’t too happy with where Mock Drafts have him.

“I see all these freaking mock drafts every single day (saying) I’m going in the seventh round,” he said.

But Reed also said that NFL teams project him between the second and fourth.

We’ll find out in late April.
