This week, the NFL world will be centered in Indianapolis, as the annual Scouting Combine takes place. This is an opportunity for many of the best collegiate prospects to work out in a variety of drills, talk to teams, and a number of other things as well. It has become a pretty big event in the NFL world, probably in large part because people are already football-starved by this time, but regardless the attention will be on Indianapolis this week.
Television Schedule:
NFL Network will again be broadcasting the Combine, and the on-field workouts begin on Friday. From Friday through Monday, the NFL Network's live coverage will begin at 9:00 a.m. ET each day as they cover the drills, and on Wednesday and Thursday the Network will be broadcasting press conferences in the afternoon.
Online Streaming:
NFL Network will stream the Combine live online at NFL Combine Live, so be sure to check that out if you'd rather watch it online instead of on the TV.
