Luke Kuechly reaction drills

Remember when everyone tried to question his athleticism coming into the NFL?  Funny how a lack of pigmentation always comes with questions of athleticism.  Then Luke goes to the Combine and just blew all the other LBs out of the water in virtually every drill.

Agreed. He's extremely athletic. Even if he wasn't the great football mind he is, he'd still probably be a top 10 MLB just riding on athleticism alone. Top talent across the board.

Luke has been a savage athlete for a long time. Here's a cool article from 2008 when he was a junior in high school (felt old yet today?).

 

While a stadium full of young stars participated in SPARQ Testing, one star shined far brighter then the others… that star was Junior LB Luke Kuechly who posted an off the charts SPARQ Rating of 106.14. Kuechly, a member of the 2007 state championship team, finished in the top 3 in each of the 4 SPARQ events. When asked what benefits SPARQ Testing will bring the Bombers, the Junior LB feels “the testing will help us set goals because you really don’t know what goals to set until you come out here and test.” The power ball toss proved to be Kuechly’s strongest event as he placed himself among the elite athletes in the country with a toss of 43 feet. Rounding out a performance that ranks Kuechly in the 99.9th percentile in the country was a 4.78 second 40 time, 4.35 second shuttle and a 32.9 inch vert. Kuechly, who has gained interest from high profile colleges such as Stanford, Boston College, Michigan State and Northwestern plans to “work on a lot of speed drills to improve my 40 time.”
