Just a few weeks removed from helping Ohio State earn its ninth national championship, former Buckeye running backs TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins sought to improve their standing in the 2025 NFL Draft pool.
In an effort to showcase the full range of their talent at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Henderson and Judkins each elected to run the 40-yard dash — in addition to participating in several other drills and tests.

With a collection of cheers raining down from the fans in attendance at Lucas Oil Stadium, Henderson dashed his way to a 4.43-second time on his first attempt of the day — marking the second-best 40-yard dash by a Buckeye running back at the NFL Combine, trailing only Brandon Saine (4.40). He tied for seventh-fastest among running backs who ran the 40 at this year’s combine.

Henderson matched Judkins’ vertical jump with a 38.5” while tallying a 10’8” broad jump.
The 38.5" vertical jump marks by Henderson and Judkins slotted them tied for the second-best all-time score by a Buckeye at the combine, falling just behind Robert Smith, who leapt 39 inches in 1993.
