NFL combine notes: Michigan State's Jalen Nailor, Connor Heyward tout versatility

Indianapolis — Players always arrive at the NFL Scouting Combine with goals for individual drills and the 40, and they typically keep those numbers to themselves.

Former Michigan State receiver Jalen Nailor is no different, but he assured he will turn heads with his 40-yard dash time during testing Thursday.

“I’m think I’m going to run pretty fast,” Nailor said Wednesday morning during an interview session.

And what about his projected time?

“You’re going to have to wait and see,” he said, smiling.

Nailor feels good about the season he had last year with the Spartans, despite missing the final 4½ regular-season games with a hand injury before returning for the Peach Bowl.
