NFL legends John Elway and John Lynch were in attendance. Elway and Lynch are the general managers of the Denver Broncos and San Francisco 49ers, respectively. Elway also holds the title of President of Football Operations.
In total, 27 of the NFL’s 32 teams sent a representative to the school’s Pro Day, according to the Arizona Republic’s Michelle Gardner.
The turnout likely benefitted from the NFL’s Annual League Meeting, which concluded around the same time. One of the league’s most notable events took place from March 24-27 in Phoenix, Arizona.
Additionally, the Pro Day attracted scouts from both the CFL and AAF.
