Former Clemson defensive end Xavier Thomas ran the 40-yard dash on Thursday, when defensive linemen and linebackers went through on-field drills at the 2024 NFL Scouting Combine at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

Thomas recorded an unofficial time of 4.63 seconds on his first 40-yard dash attempt (1.65 10-yard split) before clocking an unofficial 4.64 on his second run.

Thomas officially posted a time of 4.62, the fourth-fastest among defensive ends who ran the 40 at the combine.

In 12 games for the Tigers this past season (11 starts), Thomas was credited by the coaching staff with 28 tackles (4.0 for loss), 3.0 sacks, four pass breakups, a team-high 21 quarterback pressures, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery.

The 6-foot-2, 245-pounder finished his Clemson career (2018-23) with 133 tackles (34.0 for loss), nine pass breakups, six forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries over 61 games (30 starts). He’s a former five-star prospect who earned multiple all-conference selections during his time as a Tiger.
