Defensive lineman Jonathan Allen, outside linebacker Ryan Anderson, linebacker Reuben Foster, tight end O.J. Howard, cornerback Marlon Humphrey, safety Eddie Jackson, offensive tackle Cam Robinson, wide receiver ArDarius Stewart, defensive lineman Dalvin Tomlinson and outside linebacker Tim Williams will all either workout or meet with NFL teams and scouts after taking part in the NFL Scouting Combine.
Joining them are defensive lineman Dakota Ball, wide receiver Gehrig Dieter, offensive lineman Brandon Greene, kicker Adam Griffith, offensive lineman Korren Kirven, long snapper Cole Mazza and offensive lineman Brandon Moore.
Foster seeks redemption
It will give Foster an opportunity to speak to NFL teams directly after he was sent home from the Combine after a reported verbal, non-physical altercation with a hospital employee. Foster has since sent a letter to all 32 NFL teams apologizing and hoping to curb any negative impressions that may have formed about him.
Foster is widely projected as first-round selection and the top linebacker available in the 2017 NFL Draft. He did not participate in the workout portion of the Combine due to recent surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff.
Howard came away from Indianapolis believed to have solidified himself as a first-round draft pick after a stellar workout and interviews. The 6-foot-6, 250-pounder ran the faster 40-yard dash in the history of the event for a player his size.
