Watch Tennessee’s Owen Williams put up 42 reps of bench press during pro day
Published:
Owen Williams is a beast. That much we have learned.
The 6-foot-2, 295-pound defensive lineman participated in Tennessee’s pro day this morning and secured what would have been the best — by far — number of reps on the 225-pound bench press at the NFL Combine.
He put up 42. That is eight more than Arizona State offensive lineman Christian Westerman, who had 34 at the combine last month.

The record for the most bench press reps at the NFL Combine was set by Stephen Paea in 2011 when he managed to finish with 49 reps.
