The NFL released the official invite list for the 2017 Combine, and there will be plenty to pick apart from the group. The quarterbacks will be missing one notable candidate. Former Ole Miss quarterback Chad Kelly did not receive an invite, apparently in response to some of his off-field issues. The NFL is inconsistent in how they deal with off-field issues, so this is par for the course.
Here’s the full list of quarterbacks that will be in attendance at the 2017 NFL Combine. Will you be on the lookout for any of them in particular? Well, other than the big names. We don’t know yet which ones will not participate in full throwing drills, but I don’t recall hearing any suggestions that any were planning on sitting out some of the drills.
