Changed from a 4.72 to a 4.62. Good time for him, may be able to wiggle himself to a late round pick.

I wouldn't call Nick a physical back. Especially when he weighed in at the combine at 209.

Not really known to be physical either.

There's a reason the other RBs call him "slow azz"

I think Jeremy Hill was 4.61. He was a big back.

He may not be the biggest back, but he’s not the fastest either

Not unexpected. I figured 4.7-4.8

Likely undrafted free agent with a time like that.

I see 4.68 on the nfl website.

Elijah Holyfield with 4.76.

The Utah punter ran faster, it will be an uphill battle to make a roster.

He won’t be drafted but I can see him being a solid reserve RB and special teams guy for some team. Brosette’s calling card was never his speed but he does have good field vision and when he finds a hole he commits to it and cuts upfield. He’s one of those jack of all trades, master of none type guys. 40 yard dash is pretty meaningless to a between the tackles runner.

4.68 was probably his second run. 4.68 isn’t a terrible time if he had come in at 225. It’s not good when he weighed in at 209.
