Linebacker Shaquem Griffin NFL Combine
Shaquem Griffin has had more than an amazing NFL combine surpassing expectation of most! His left hand was amputed at a young age because he was born with a birth defect.
Furthermore, Griffin was a second team All – American in 2017. He did not get invited to the NFL Combine initially, but received a late invitation.

40 Yard Dash
Shaquem Griffin absolutely killing the 40 yard dash is what has everyone buzzing!
His time of 4.38 is the fastest time recorded by a linebacker in 15 years.
First, an anonymous GM said he’d be shocked if Shaquem Griffin got 5 reps on bench press … He got 20
Just now, Griffin silenced all his critics … with a 4.38 40-yard dash
