"Green, who measured in at 6-foot-5 7/8-inches tall and 227 pounds, ran a wide-receiver worthy 40-yard dash in an official time of 4.36 seconds to go with a 43 ½-inch vertical jump and a broad jump of 11-2. All three are records for quarterbacks since at least 2003, according to ESPN Research."
"Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson Sr., who was selected with the No. 4 pick in the 2023 draft, had the previous bests for a quarterback in the vertical and broad jumps in that span - 40 ½-inches and 10-feet-9-inches respectively. Green's 40 time is now the first sub-4.4 clocking for quarterback since at least 2003."
"Green was a four-year starter in college - two years at Boise State and two at Arkansas. This past season he threw for 2,714 yards with 19 touchdowns and 11 interceptions to go with 777 yards rushing as well as eight rushing touchdowns."
Taylen Green, a 6-foot-5 7/8-inch, 227-pound quarterback from Arkansas, delivered a record-breaking performance at the NFL combine. He ran a 4.36-second 40-yard dash, the fastest for any quarterback since at least 2003, along with a 43½-inch vertical jump and 11-2 broad jump—all quarterback records. These marks surpassed previous records held by Anthony Richardson Sr., the 2023 No. 4 overall pick. Green's 40 time is the first sub-4.4 clocking for a quarterback in over two decades. A four-year college starter with two seasons each at Boise State and Arkansas, Green threw for 2,714 yards with 19 touchdowns last season. Scouts note his extended throwing motion requires improvement for consistency.
