Texas wide receiver Matthew Golden boosted his draft stock following his performance at the 2025 NFL scouting combine. Former NFL general manager and ESPN insider Mike Tannenbaum wrote in a social media post that there is "no doubt" Golden will be the first wide receiver selected in the 2025 NFL draft due to his combine results.

These defensive backs and tight ends helped their stock at the NFL Scouting Combine and might be on the Washington Commanders' radar this April.

In 2024, Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy ran the 40-yard dash in 4.21 seconds, which is recognized as the NFL Scouting Combine’s fastest. On Saturday, Golden had the fastest 40 among this combine’s crop of wide receivers as he recorded a 4.29-second showing in the 40.
