When I learned I was credentialed for the 2019 NFL Combine, I didn’t quite realize how much had changed since I last covered the event three years ago. The media sessions are at the Indiana Convention Center — not Lucas Oil Stadium — and it seems to keep growing in scale.
Brandon Gowton asked me to write about all the things “behind the scenes” that you might be interested in reading.
So, here’s my impression of the first day we heard from prospects:
1 - Indianapolis is cold in February
As someone from Columbus, Ohio, the weather wasn’t entirely surprising, but it was in the low-30’s most of Wednesday and into Thursday which means Uber travel rather than walking.
