The NFL combine is once again back in Indianapolis, bringing in hundreds of the top potential NFL Draft prospects to Lucas Oil Stadium.
Arguably, the most-anticipated highlight of the event is the 40-yard dash. From the big guys up front to the skill position players looking to set a new fastest time, all eyes are glued to the field when any prospect lines up for the dash.
However, long before these players were preparing to sprint at Lucas Oil Stadium, many were high school track and football stars, continually trying to get faster for college and, potentially, one day, the Combine.
Here's a look at the fastest 40-yard dash times posted by defensive prospects and what high schools they come from.
