Penn State's Zane Durant stole the show at the NFL Combine with a blazing 4.76-second 40-yard dash, a time that's faster than the average for defensive tackles since 2003. Standing at 6-foot-290 pounds, Durant's speed is remarkable and is expected to boost his draft stock. He entered the Combine ranked 18th among defensive tackles and 140th overall in the 2026 class, but his performance could see him move up to the late Day 2 pick. Durant's explosiveness and 11 tackles for loss in 2024 make him an attractive prospect. He's confident in his abilities, stating, 'I'm a fast cat, explosive and twitchy, and I can't wait to show those guys who I am.' Durant's performance at the Combine is a testament to his talent and could be a turning point in his NFL journey.
