The 2025 NFL scouting combine is here and with it, the official kickoff of the 2025 NFL Draft season.
The NFL invited 329 players to Indianapolis for the annual event, where players work out, teams get to interview them and coaches and front-office personnel from around the league address the media with the final recaps of the 2024 season and start looking ahead to 2025.
The Tennessee Titans have the No. 1 pick in this year’s draft. The last time they picked first was in 1978, when they — then the Houston Oilers — selected Heisman Trophy-winning running back and eventual Pro Football Hall of Famer Earl Campbell. This season’s Heisman winner, Travis Hunter, will be in Indianapolis. The two-way superstar is listed as a cornerback, but may work out with the defensive backs and wide receivers, should he take the field.
The top running back in this class has already decided he won’t be working out, with Ashton Jeanty reportedly making that decision at the beginning of the week.

Isaiah Bond does not come close to breaking Xavier Worthy’s combine 40 record
