To bring this into a more local perspective.
Tee Higgins ran a 4.59, with a 1.66 10 yard split and 2.72 20 yard split. He had a 4.53 20 yard shuttle, 31” vertical and 10’3” broad jump.
Fant ran a 4.5, with a 1.55 10 yard split and 2.61 20 yard split. He had a 4.22 20 yard shuttle, 39.5” vertical and 10’7” broad jump.
Noah Fant is an athlete.
FWIW, Mike Gesicki tested similarly to Fant, but also 3 years older.
The goal is to negate safeties double teaming Chase and Tee both. Mostly Chase. Fant & Gesicki on deep routes aren’t going to allow it.
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
