Sports Illustrated noted that before the 2014 draft, writer Colby Rogers attempted to quantify the impact of hand size. Using measurements from the combine and football stats (starts, touchdown passes and interceptions), he found that the best size isn’t either large or small. It’s average. The group with hands between 9¼ and 9¾ inches outperformed players outside that range.
