Former Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray Officially Invited to NFL Scouting Combine
Former Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray will attend the NFL Scouting Combine.
He is listed as an official combine participant after declaring for the draft in January. He was the No. 9 pick in the MLB draft in June 2018.
Murray, this season's Heisman winner, is weighing a future in the NFL or playing for the Oakland A's organization. He has been quiet so far, dodging direct questions on which sport he will choose. The MMQB's Albert Breer broke down the key dates on Murray's calendar in Thursday's Game Plan, with key benchmarks arriving soon in both his budding MLB and NFL careers.
