With the NFL Combine beginning in this week, flocks of prospects will head to Indianapolis to show their skills in front of scouts and GMs from across the league.
Before heading to Lucas Oil Stadium, two prominent quarterbacks – Florida State’s Jameis Winston and Baylor’s Bryce Petty – made a pit stop in Ann Arbor for some last minute tutelage from Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh.
According to the Detroit Free Press, a Michigan spokesman said the two quarterbacks arrived in Ann Arbor on Sunday with quarterback guru George Whitfield, a friend of Harbaugh.
The two have been training with Harbaugh since Sunday and came to Michigan before making the trip to Indianapolis in order to “get acclimated to the time and weather, and throw in an indoor facility before going to Lucas Oil (Stadium).”
Winston reportedly hasn’t decided yet whether he will throw at the combine, with Whitfield saying “it’s a game-time decision.”
“He’s a very big believer in himself, so it’ll be interesting. He’s prepared to do it,” Whitfield told USA Today.
Quarterbacks are scheduled to throw on Saturday, so Winston still has a few days to mull his decision.
