Canady Skips Agility at Combine, Focuses on On‑Field Drills

Oregon Ducks cornerback Jadon Canady chose not to run agility drills at the 2026 NFL Combine, instead focusing on on‑field drills that highlighted his quick reactions and ball skills.

Canady, a transfer to Oregon for his final season after stints at Tulane and Ole Miss, opted out of the combine’s agility testing, preferring to showcase his quick reactions and ball skills in on‑field drills. The 5‑foot‑10½‑inch, 181‑pound corner recorded 39 tackles, six passes defensed and two interceptions for the Ducks last season.

His hand size is 9¼ inches and arm length 30 inches, matching his listed measurements. Canady also met with media and NFL teams during the event and is expected to excel in short‑yardage agility and vertical jump at Oregon’s Pro Day.
