Quarterbacks, wide receivers, and tight ends were under the spotlight in Indianapolis on Day 2 of the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine.

Here are the top five performers from the 40-yard dash, bench press, and other on-field drills.

Isabella's time was initially listed incorrectly at 4.56 due to a laser issue. After a correction was made, he tied Campbell for the fastest time so far in the 2019 combine.

Metcalf's 4.33 surprised many and set Twitter ablaze. He became the fastest player to weigh more than 225 pounds at the combine since the NFL began tracking data in 2003.
