UConn football’s Travis Jones receives NFL Combine invite

UConn’s respectable list of pros in the NFL seems set to grow again this spring, as junior defensive lineman Travis Jones received an invitation to the 2022 NFL Draft Combine in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Jones is one of 322 athletes invited to the week-long event where the top draft prospects are measured, interviewed, and tested in drills on the field.

The New Haven, Connecticut native may even hear his name called within the first two days. Jones is projected by multiple draft sites as a mid-second-round pick, as both ESPN and Bleacher Report have him tabbed as the sixth-best interior lineman in the class.
