Quintez Cephus showed scouts how well he could catch the ball during his 2019 season. On Wednesday, he showed NFL personnel just how strong he is.

On his first day working out for scouts at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, the former Wisconsin Badgers wide receiver put up 23 reps on the bench press at 225 pounds, the most of any player who performed the lift.

Per UW Athletic Communications, Cephus' 23 reps tied former tailback James White for the fourth-most reps for a skill position player at the bench press at the NFL Combine. Only tight ends Travis Beckum (28) and Lance Kendricks (25) and running back Mark Montgomery (24) had more reps.

Cephus left Wisconsin following his junior season after leading the Badgers in catches (59), yards (901) and touchdowns (seven). The Macon, GA, native said that he had a formal interivew with the Carolina Panthers and an informal interview with the Green Bay Packers while at the Combine.

Former Wisconsin tailback Jonathan Taylor and outside linebacker Zack Baun will be participating in Indianapolis, while center Tyler Biadasz (shoulder surgery) will participate in interviews.
