Watch: Louisville Players Talk 2023 Pro Day

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - On Tuesday, several members of the Louisville football program took the next step in their upcoming professional careers.
The Cardinals held the 2023 iteration of their annual Pro Day, starting at the Howard Schnellenberger Complex for measurements and strength drills, moving to Cardinal Stadium for the 40-Yard Dash, and finishing at the Trager Center for agility and position drills.
In total, 16 players took part in the activities. This included NFL Combine invitees defensive end YaYa Diaby, linebacker Yasir Abdullah, quarterback Malik Cunningham, cornerback Kei’Trel Clark and running back Tiyon Evans.
"I think it went amazing," Clark said. "Just coming out here and seeing my teammates, going after it after all the training that they've been through for the last few months. It's just been an amazing experience to see that."
Scouts from 32 NFL clubs were present to watch the Pro Day. With such a large NFL contingent in town, the players wanted to make sure they left the scouts impressed.
"This is a humbling experience," tight end Marshon Ford said. "I just gotta keep grinding like I never arrived. The moment I arrive is the moment that I stop learning, and then things may go left."
Following the Pro Day, Clark, Ford, Cunningham, Diaby and Abdullah took some time to meet with the media. They discussed their respective performances, where they excelled and where they needed to improve, what they each set out to prove to scouts, and what their plans are between now and the NFL Draft.
