Kamalei Correa entered the NFL Scouting Combine hoping to convince the Browns and other teams he could make a successful transition from a defensive end at Boise State to a 3-4 outside linebacker.
He showed he’s certainly fast enough Sunday as defensive linemen and linebackers worked out at Lucas Oil Stadium. He finished third among D-linemen in the 40-yard dash (4.69 seconds) and 11th among D-linemen and linebackers combined.
While Correa went through agility drills, NFL Network analyst and former New England Patriots and Browns edge rusher Willie McGinest said, “That’s a linebacker.”
Correa has never played outside linebacker, but he’s preparing to do so at the next level.
