McMaster University defensive back Ethan Stuart was the top performer in the short shuttle at the 2026 CFL Combine with a time of 4.02 seconds. He also won the three-cone drill, becoming the only player to top two categories.<\/p>\n

In 35 career games with the Marauders, the six-foot, 223-pound halfback from Oakville, Ont., has made 122 tackles, three tackles for loss, two sacks, eight pass deflections, and three interceptions.<\/p>\n

Other players who finished in the top five of the event include Northern Illinois University defensive back Cyrus McGarrell (4.08), University of Ottawa running back Charles Asselin (4.08), Georgia State quarterback Christian Veilleux (4.13), and Universit\u00e9 de Montreal linebacker Charles-Elliot Bouliane (4.16).<\/p>\n

The all-time CFL Combine short shuttle record was set by St. Francis Xavier defensive back Dylan Hollohan in 2012 (3.89 seconds). The native of Moncton, N.B., had two stints with the Montreal Alouettes but never dressed for a regular-season CFL game.<\/p>\n

The next best performances all-time came from Saskatchewan receiver Daniel Wiebe in 2025 (3.95), Manitoba receiver Alex Vitt in 2016 (3.95), Laval defensive back Anton Haie in 2025 (3.96), and Calgary defensive back Michael Schmidt in 2016 (3.96).<\/p>\n

The top performer at the 2025 CFL Combine in Regina was Wiebe. He was later drafted in the eighth round by the Saskatchewan Roughriders and is set to attend training camp with the team in May.<\/p>\n
