Nine NFL squads watch a dozen GS players work out
STATESBORO - Ten professional scouts, and even one NFL assistant coach, were on hand Wednesday as a dozen former Georgia Southern football players went through their Pro Day at Allen E. Paulson Stadium.
Players who worked out were, in alphabetical order: Jacorey Belvin (LB), Deshon Cooper (DE), Jeremiah Culbreth (OL), Wesley Fields (RB), Sean Freeman (S), Monteo Garrett (RB), Logan Hunt (DL), Joshua Moon (S), RJ Murray (S), Curtis Rainey (OL), Tomarcio Reese (LB) and Ellis Richardson (TE). Several players from Savannah State and Mercer were allowed to work out, as well.
The afternoon started with measurements, along with heights and weights being taken before the players worked out on the bench press and performed the vertical jump inside the weight room. After moving to the turf, each player did the broad jump, ran two 40s, did the shuttle and cone drills and then the scouts worked out the players by position groups.
Full times and results will not be released out of respect for the scouts who showed up to evaluate. Rainey (24), Reese (23) and Hunt and Richardson (22) led the way on the bench press while Moon (36"), Garrett (35.5"), Fields (35") led the way in the vertical.
The professional teams in attendance were the Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Jets, San Francisco 49ers, Pittsburgh Steelers, Tennessee Titans, Cleveland Browns, Atlanta Falcons, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Chargers and Calgary Stampeders of the CFL.
The 2019 NFL Draft will be held April 25-27 in Nashville.
