South Carolina Football: Live Updates From NFL Combine
Shane Beamer and South Carolina's Football program have displayed an innate ability to develop all kinds of talent on both sides of the ball in their short time in Columbia, and that development will be on display between March 2nd and March 5th, as five different Gamecock football players will go through testing drills at the NFL combine:
- Zacch Pickens, DL
- Cam Smith, CB
- Darius Rush, CB
- Jalen Brooks, WR
- Jovaughn Gwyn, OL
As far as when each player will go through on-field drills, Zacch Pickens will go through on-field drills on Thursday, with Cam Smith and Darius Rush both testing on Friday, Jalen Brooks on Saturday and Jovaughn Gwyn testing on Sunday. Some players have been projected as potential first round picks, while others made plenty of noise during some notable all-star games, and the combine will offer each player their biggest opportunity yet to put their best foot forward in front of NFL scouts, coaches and executives in attendance.
GamecocksDigest will have the latest updates on the testing results from former South Carolina football players down below.
