40-yard dash: 4.37 seconds
Vertical jump: 38.5 inches
Broad jump: 10'4" feet

RELATED PRO DAY RESULT: Former PV's defensive back Darius Hawkins sped to a 4.39 seconds 40-yard dash, 39.5-inch vertical jump, and 10-foot broad jump.

SOUTHERN'S PRO DAY

Again, HBCU football athletes are dispelling the opinions of naysayers that talent does exist and compare to the talent at Power 5 programs.

Ja'Tyre Carter, at over 300 pounds, ran 5.01 seconds in the 40 and skyed to a 34.5 inch vertical (did I mention he's over 300 pounds?). Marquis McClain had a 4.59 seconds 40, 39 inches vertical, and 10-foot broad jumps. Next, Caleb Carter received an invitation from the New Orleans Saints after posting a 4.51 seconds 40-yard dash and 10-2 broad jump.

Brooks' numbers are exceptional. Hopefully, the NFL scouting departments will not only call these young talented HBCU football players but seriously consider taking a flyer and drafting them in the 2022 NFL Draft.
