NFL Draft Notes: With Most Eyes on Kyler, Clayton Thorson Shows Off His Knee (and His Kneel Down)

EVANSTON, Ill. — Clayton Thorson didn’t want to do it, but his receivers and his quarterbacks coach, Terry Shea, thought it would be a great way to end his workout.

“I told them throughout the day, ‘We’re not doing that,’” Thorson said after his workout. “But, sure enough, they did.”

So on the final snap of his 50-play pro day throwing session, the players lined up in victory formation. Thorson took the snap and kneeled down.

Despite the QB’s embarrassment with the idea, the joke victory formation did hit with the scouts watching from the sidelines.
