Quarterback Michael Penix Jr showcased his speed and athleticism at the University of Washington pro day, running an unofficial sub-4.6 40-yard dash and recording impressive vertical and broad jumps. His performance drew the attention of Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider.
Thursday was the University of Washington pro day , and the headline name among Huskies draft prospects was quarterback Michael Penix Jr . Even though Penix Jr participated in February’s NFL combine, he did not run the 40-yard dash . He ran the 40 at the pro day and unofficially went sub-4.6. Times are all over the place when it’s this type of event, but it’s nevertheless impressive. “I’m a 4.4 guy, in my opinion,” Penix said (via ESPN). “Some people had 4.46, some people had 4.
5, but that’s unofficial, so I’m good. I just showed I can run, so I feel good.” Penix Jr showcased his athleticism even more with a 36.5” vertical jump, a better mark than any other quarterback at the combine. Likewise for his 10’5 broad jump. Of course, Penix’s arm and prolific deep passing ability was his highlight trait in college, earning him Heisman Trophy runner-up honors in 2023. Unsurprisingly, Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider was in attendance
