North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton was one of the players who helped himself the most at the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine.
Hampton measured at 6 feet tall and 221 pounds, ran a 4.46-second 40-yard dash, vertical jumped 38 inches and broad jumped 10 feet, 10 inches, while also bench pressing 225 pounds for 18 reps. He said on PFT Live that he knew he was going to impress with his workout.
