Former University of Kentucky football player C.J. Conrad, who sat out this month’s NFL Scouting Combine after a heart problem was identified during a physical leading up to the event, has been cleared to resume his pursuit of a pro football career.
“My prayers have been answered!” the former UK tight end posted on Twitter on Monday evening. “After getting further testing done, today I was finally cleared.”
Conrad will not take part in UK’s annual Pro Day this Friday, during which players work out on campus in front of pro scouts, but said he would hold his own Pro Day on April 8.
