Washington football offensive star shows off skills at NFL Combine

Five Huskies participated in quarterback, running back and wide receiver practices on the third day of 2024 NFL Combine training. Expectations were especially high for fans who were looking forward to the performance of Washington's top offensive talent.

WR Roma Odunze

height: 6'3″
weight: 212
arm: 31 1/4″
hand: 9 1/4″

Showing off some impressive skills at the combine, Roman Odunze showed off both his size and athleticism, proving why he is one of the top receivers in the draft. His standout performance included a 40-yard dash speed of 4.45 seconds, highlighting his speed on the field. A 39-inch vertical jump highlighted his explosive jumping ability, which was further complemented by a 10-foot-4-inch broad jump.

WR Jalen McMillan

height: 6'1″
weight: 197
arm: 32 1/8″
hand: Ten”

Jalen McMillan was 6 feet 1 inch tall and weighed 197 pounds. With his arms measuring 32 1/8 inches and his hands measuring 10 inches, McMillan displayed a combination of size and solid physical attributes. Despite being rated as an “average backup or special teamer,” his on-field potential was limited by his quick 4.47 meter 40-yard dash, 37-inch vertical jump and his 10-foot-7 inch shined in the long jump, further highlighting his explosive athleticism.

WR Jarrin Polk

height: 6'1″
weight: 203
arm: 31 3/4″
hand: 9 3/4 inch

Jalyn Polk showed off his speed on the field with a solid 4.52 40-yard dash. Additionally, a 37.5-inch vertical jump and 10-foot-9-inch broad jump highlighted his explosive athleticism and hinted at his ability to make impactful plays. Polk's well-rounded performance positions him as a prospect with the potential to evolve into a starter at the next level.

QB Michael Penix Jr.

height: 6'2″
weight: 216
arm: 33 5/8″
hand: 10 1/2 inch

Penix had a solid combine and showed he has the potential to develop into a reliable force on the field. When you combine his metrics and skill, you know the quarterback has the tools to lead the league and make an impact. Despite some accuracy issues during pitching practice, Penix's performance positions him as a prospect who can be expected to be a consistent and reliable starter in the future.

RB Dillon Johnson

height: 6'0″
weight: 217
arm: 30″
hand: 9 3/8″

Johnson's 4.68 40-yard dash disappointed some, but he never had high straight-line speed and didn't need to. His quick wits, strong vision, and ability to run through defenders prove his potential role as a versatile contributor in the NFL.
