VIDEO: Wisconsin RB Jonathan Taylor Shows off Speed at NFL Combine With Impressive 40-Yard Dash

Wisconsin Badgers RB Jonathan Taylor is anticipated to be one of the first running backs off the board, and with good reason. The star tailback recorded back-to-back 2,000+ yard seasons, scoring 21 touchdowns in his junior campaign. Well, much of his success can be attributed to his blazing speed, which he showcased at the NFL Combine on Friday, to the tune of a 4.39 40-yard dash.

That's speed, folks.

Taylor had said prior to the Combine that he was looking to crack a 4.40 second 40-yard dash, and he did just that with his performance on Friday.

In 41 games as a Badger, Taylor amassed 50 rushing touchdowns and 6,174 yards while scoring an additional five touchdowns through the air -- all of which came as a junior.
