Day 1 of the 2018 is in the books. Today was mostly players checking in, getting their physicals and meeting with NFL clubs as all “pre-work”, if you will, to the official festivities.

The event officially kicked off with an introductory press conference, which I was able to attend. At the mic tonight was Senior Bowl Executive Director, Phil Savage, Quarterback Josh Allen, Linebacker Shaquem Griffin, and Edge Rusher Marcus Davenport.

If these names aren’t familiar to you, check out my “Players to Watch” list, as each of these players are featured on there.

Phil Savage

An interesting nugget from Savage’s portion was announcing that the Senior Bowl is partnering with Zebra Technologies, the Official On-Field Player Tracking Provider of the NFL and the company behind Next-Gen Stats.
