The Los Angeles Rams and Cincinatti Bengals are set to face off in Super Bowl 56 on Sunday, but we're already looking ahead in the NFL calendar toward the draft. Before that takes place, 324 prospects will head to Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis to showcase their skills.

On Wednesday morning, six Oregon Ducks were included on that extensive list, earning a formal invite to the 2022 NFL Scouting Combine. Oregon had the second-most invitees of any Pac-12 school, with Arizona State leading the conference with eight. 

The 2022 NFL Scouting Combine will take place from March 1 through March 7.
