The 2018 NFL Scouting Combine officially gets underway today, Tuesday, Feb. 27, though prospects won’t see the field for drills and workouts until Friday, March 2. The combine runs through March 5, and includes 11 groups of players across four different schedules, as well as head coach and general manager interviews with the national media.
While exact times for when things will be covered live on television are evasive, the NFL Network will have daily coverage beginning with press conferences on Wednesday, Feb. 28 at 10 a.m. PT. They will have more press conference coverage the following day, and then it’s on to the first groups of players seeing the field on Friday.
For the San Francisco 49ers, we already know that general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan will speak on Thursday morning. Lynch will speak at 7:45 a.m. while Shanahan will speak at 8:45 a.m. We also previously wrote about the full list of combine invitees.
You can find a list of the daily NFL Network coverage, as well as when each position group will see the field for workouts and drills, handily arranged by our friends at Cincy Jungle, below. And below that, you can find a table with the times for all of the general manager and head coaching combinations. The bench press for each group will take place on the day before they see the field for workouts.
All times listed are Pacific Time
