In hopes of courting curiosity from professional scouts and workforce executives, Virginia State defensive again Willie Drew showcased his blazing pace, posting a formidable time within the 40-yard sprint on the NFL Mix.
He clocked in at 4.48 on his first try and improved by two-tenths of a second on his second try with a 4.46.

Transferring to Virginia State in 2021, Drew recorded 11 interceptions in his final two seasons, with the workforce being CIAA Defensive Participant of the 12 months this previous season.
He was the one HBCU participant chosen to play on this yr’s Reese’s Senior Bowl and was considered one of two HBCU gamers chosen to take part within the NFL Mix (Howard OL Anim Dankwah).
Drew needs to turn out to be the second CIAA defensive again to be chosen within the NFL Draft up to now three years.
He would be a part of former Fayetteville State defensive again Joshua Williams, a 2022 fourth-round draft choose who has since gained two straight Tremendous Bowls as a member of the Kansas Metropolis Chiefs.
