In recent years, players like Josh Allen, Jalen Hurts and Lamar Jackson have contributed to a shift in the way the quarterback position is viewed. They have demonstrated the mobility that makes them difficult to stop, apart from the exceptional arm skill to play quarterback in the day of garish passing stats.
Allen is known for his ability to pass the ball downfield just as well as run the ball. Being able to use both hands and legs makes him a legitimate dual-threat signal-caller.
Some fans may be interested to know about Allen’s 40-yard dash time at his NFL Scouting Combine performance, which took place before the 2018 NFL Draft.
Josh Allen ran the 40-yard distance in 4.75 seconds during his Combine exercises in Indianapolis in 2018. Wide receivers are typically the fastest players in football, as they can complete a 40-yard run in 4.30 to 4.40 seconds on average.
Allen is understandably slower than the receivers, who are frequently quicker. Still, if he has a good running angle, he can outpace a lot of other quarterbacks and defensive linemen.
