Alabama WR Henry Ruggs gets high-fives for hand size at NFL Combine

NFL Draft News
2020 NFL Combine

The wide receiver with the biggest hands was 6-foot-4, 230 pound Juwan Johnson of Oregon, who’s hands measured 10 4/8 inches. The receiver with the second-largest hands was 6-3, 225 pound Dezmon Patmon of Washington State who’s hands measured at 10 2/8 inches.

Then two players tied for the third-largest hands, and one of them was 6-1, 212 pound Donovan Peoples-Jones of Michigan. His hands measured 10 1/8 inches.

The player tied with Peoples-Jones?

That would be Alabama junior Henry Ruggs.

Ruggs is one of the smaller receivers at the Combine at 5-11, 188 pounds, so his hand size is both impressive and unexpected. Then again, it shouldn’t come in as a huge surprise, since Ruggs had the nation’s highest passer rating when targeted this season, according to Pro Football Focus.
