How Penn State QB Trace McSorley fared at the NFL Combine — and why he won’t work with the DBs

At least one NFL team apparently isn’t sold on Penn State’s Trace McSorley playing quarterback at the next level.

McSorley was requested Saturday to also work out with the defensive backs during Monday’s portion of the NFL Combine in Indianapolis. But McSorley, who some college teams recruited at safety, reportedly declined the offer by saying he was prepared and focused at quarterback.

“So disrespectful,” former Penn State star Saquon Barkley said on Twitter.

McSorley’s performance Saturday likely didn’t help, or hurt, his cause one way or another. “Good enough,” is how one New York Giants beat writer characterized his performance.
