The 2017 NFL season officially came to an end on Sunday with Super Bowl LII and that means the next major event on the league’s calendar will be the 2018 Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, IN. That annual event will be held February 27 – March 5 at Lucas Oil Stadium and on Tuesday the names of the players invited to participate in it was released.
As you can probably imagine, this year’s list of combine invites, 336 in total, includes several players from this season’s National Champion, Alabama. In total, 14 former Crimson Tide players were invited to this year’s scouting combine. The team that Alabama beat in this year’s National Championship game, Georgia, has 10 former players who have received invitations.
As usual, we’ll be profiling several of these players listed below for you prior to the combine getting underway and even more after it is over. Additionally, Alex Kozora and I will once again be tracking all of the combine results for you in real-time this year.
