Justyn Ross looks the part of a NFL receiver. But he hasn’t tested well during the pre-draft process and comes with a questionable medical history. Despite those red flags, the Pittsburgh Steelers seem to be interested. Mike Tomlin and Kevin Colbert attended the Tigers’ Pro Day, though that’s common for them in a given year, with New receivers coach Frisman Jackson joining them and personally putting Ross through his workout.
Ross is working towards the NFL after missing the entire 2020 season due to a spinal injury. One that required surgery for a condition called Klippel-Feil syndrome, a congenital fusion in his spine that caused bad “stingers” or numbness in his body.
