INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — There's always energy in the bench press room at the NFL scouting combine when players grip the crossbar and begin pumping the 225 pounds of free weights.
But never like this.
Even Shaquem Griffin, the one-handed do-it-all defender from Central Florida and a late invitee to the combine, didn't expect to do what he did Saturday with his prosthetic left hand .
His personal max was 11, but he had a much more modest benchmark here.
"My goal was six ," Griffin acknowledged afterward.
Griffin clipped his prosthetic hand onto the bar, then leaned back.
