Shemar Stewart is regarded as one of the best players in the 2025 NFL Draft despite having only 4.5 sacks in three years with the Texas A&M Aggies.
While the lack of production in college was a concern for NFL GMs and scouts, many were still high on Stewart because they believed he had the raw athleticism and tools to become a top-tier NFL pass rusher. Those beliefs were more than validated at the NFL Combine.
Shemar Stewart Dominates the NFL Combine
While many knew Stewart was a freak athlete, his results at the NFL Combine are still blowing people away. He has put on an absolute show, testing in the top percentile in many drills.

Despite weighing a heavy 267 pounds, Stewart had the second-highest vertical among edge rushers testing, jumping a jaw-dropping 40 inches. He then moved on to the broad jump, where he exceeded expectations once again, coming in with a 10’11” jump.
Next up: the 40-yard dash and Stewart didn’t disappoint, running a 4.60 with a 1.58-second 10-yard split.
What Does Stewart’s Combine Performance Mean for His Draft Stock?
While Stewart was already projected to be a first-round pick, this performance could very well solidify him as a top-10 selection.
Stewarts play strength, physical toughness, and, as proved at the Combine, overall elite athleticism should have NFL GMs drooling over him.

Stewart’s rare ability to combine speed with power, as well as his long arms and big frame, should make it easy for an NFL team to develop him into the full package as a pass rusher and an overall monster in the league.
Stewart was one of the prospects with the most to gain from the NFL Combine, and he certainly raised his stock.
