Alabama football linebacker, Jihaad Campbell is seeing his name climb up draft boards after posting an impressive head-turning 40-yard dash time.

Campbell entered the NFL scouting combine at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis after being the heart of the Alabama defense throughout the past two seasons and registering 117 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss and five sacks as a junior in 2024. Campbell did himself some good on Thursday evening by posting the fourth fastest 40-yard dash time amongst the 28 linebackers competing at the NFL combine, clocking an official forty time of 4.52 seconds.

This performance by Campbell now has league talent evaluators increasing the stock value of the Alabama defender ahead of April’s NFL Draft.
