Mount Sweat continues to make its mark in the training leading up to the 2019 NFL Draft.

The defensive end of the state of Mississippi, with a capacity of 6.6 kg and 260 pounds, officially ran Sunday with a 40.4-yard, 40-yard run, officially setting a record for surveillance handsets in the United States. the NFL for defensive linemen dating back to 2003, when data officially began to be tracked. His 1.55 second division on 10 yards was also among the best in his position group.

For comparison, only one running back (Justice Hill, in the state of Oklahoma) registered a mark faster than Sweat.

Sweat, who was twice selected for the first time with an All-SEC team, caused a stir at Senior Bowl training in Mobile, Alabama. He recorded 12 bags last season and 10 1/2 in 2017.

"I mean, obviously, I'm blessed with anyone who takes me into the repechage," Sweat said Saturday. "I'm going to give everything to anyone, but any team that takes me will be a winner."
