At the 2024 NFL Combine in Lucas Oil Stadium, former Clemson cornerback Nate Wiggins lit up the track with his blazing speed.
Wiggins’s 40-yard dash was highly anticipated, and he didn’t disappoint. NFL.com’s combine coverage clocked him at an impressive 4.28, solidifying his status as one of the top prospects in the 2024 NFL draft.

Nate Wiggins was STEPPING on this 4.29 seconds 40 yard dash. Best thing about it is he plays at that speed on tape as well. Phenomenal cover guy, with elite make up speed and route recognition. pic.twitter.com/tgTvUTOWJp

Nate Wiggins just dropped a 4.29.
The NFL teams he spoke to told him they were expecting a time in the 4.5’s.
4.5’s my 🍑.
