<p>Skill position players have been on display at the NFL Combine and on Saturday night, it’s time for the tight ends to shine. Everyone’s favorite event — the 40-yard dash — was on full display once again. One of the top projected tight ends, <strong><a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/miami-hurricanes/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Miami</a></strong>‘s <strong><a href="https://www.on3.com/db/will-mallory-120911/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Will Mallory</a></strong> put on a show, having one of the position’s best times.</p>



<p>Of course, the time from Indianapolis is still unofficial. Still, Mallory was able to put up an impressive 4.54 and raise a few eyebrows. Even Rich Eisen and Daniel Jeremiah were impressed from the commentary booth, talking about how quickly the tight end was moving.</p>



<p>Mallory got off to a nice start before looking consistent for all 40 yards. He was seemingly gliding out there, especially for somebody coming in at 6-4.5 and 239 pounds. Not many tight ends can move like him, sharing similar times to some wide receivers at the Combine.</p>



<p>You can watch the <a href="https://twitter.com/NFL/status/1632166574671929351?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">full run</a> from Mallory here.</p>

<p>To add to how impressive Mallory’s time is, the 4.54 unofficial was his second attempt. He was able to shed 0.03 seconds compared to his first attempts, putting him up there as one of the top tight ends. Some serious speed is being shown by the Miami product.</p>
