Michael Penix’s athleticism was on full display at Washington’s Pro Day, where he recorded impressive results. In his only attempt at the 40-yard dash, he ran a hand-timed 4.53. Additionally, Penix recorded a 36 1/2-inch vertical jump and a 10-foot, 5-inch broad jump.
Despite feeling good overall during his throwing session, Penix missed a couple of throws out of 60 attempts. Despite this minor setback, the New York Giants had a significant presence at Penix’s Pro Day. Head coach Brian Daboll, offensive coordinator Mike Kafka, quarterbacks coach Shea Tierney, and other key personnel were among those in attendance.
Penix is expected to be a late first-round pick after a successful two-year stint at UW, where he boasted impressive stats and led the team to the national title game last season.
