Former Slocomb, Troy standout Hayes trains for NFL chance

Thus, it seems perfectly natural that former Slocomb and Troy University standout defensive end Jarvis Hayes spends time training with his pit bulls to stay in football shape.

“I may run across somebody who has good feet and can cut like that. It helps me to work with my eye coordination and feet coordination.”

Hayes continues the training in hopes of hearing his named called in this week’s NFL Draft, or either sign as free agent afterwards.

Hayes was among 10 Troy players who took part in a variety of drills in front of NFL scouts at Pro Day on campus March 5.
