Parsons is NFL.com analyst Bucky Brooks' No. 1 linebacker in this year's draft and Thursday was the first chance for scouts to see him since the 2019 season, as he opted out of the 2020 campaign. He ran the 40 in 4.39 seconds -- an excellent time -- put up 19 bench-press reps, posted a 34-inch vertical jump and a broad jump of 10 feet, 6 inches.
He measured 6-foot-3, 246 pounds with 31 1/4-inch arms and massive, 11-inch hands.
"You just don't see guys (of Parsons' size) run 4.39 and then when you turn on the tape, they disrupt at every level," said Brooks during Thursday's edition of NFL Now. "His ability to rush the passer, he plays with strong hands, he's terrific against the run -- he is a difference maker. I think this (workout) will be a reminder to NFL scouts that this guy deserves the big grades that some of us want to put on him."
