Duke CB Mark Gilbert, Cousin of Darrelle Revis, Runs A 4.36 At Today's Pro Day
Duke cornerback Mark Gilbert, cousin of NFL great Darrelle Revis, ran a 4.36 at today's Pro Day. Unofficial 40 times are about as sketchy as Rocky Point tap water, but this showing at least proves Gilbert is healthy.
The kid has the bloodlines to be a great player, and now he has the (unofficial) skillset to warrant an NFL look. Speed may not always make a player elite, but it surely helps. Practically every offensive coordinator is looking for the next Tyreek Hill, so having a cornerback in the high 4.3s will garner some attention.
As Schefter tweeted, Gilbert dealt with injuries the past two seasons, which derailed a sure-fire first round selection. Setbacks from a hip injury in early 2018 led Gilbert to a three year recovery process, but it appears the Duke standout is now back to his old self. We here at OutKick wish him the best of luck.
