But, he’s hurt!

Is this an actual game? Why would players opt out of bowl games but then play in stuff like this? Why are these games even held? Just do combine drills, there’s plenty of tape on these players.

This bowl isn't until 1/28.

Nah. This is a strong evaluation week for NFL scouts. They watch practice and attend the game.

These all-star bowls, including the East-West Shrine game and most notably the senior bowl, are hugely impactful for guys to work with NFL staffs for a week of practice and make a serious impression on the staffs and get to really “practice like Pros” the game itself is largely “all star format” which severely limits the risk for injury as well.

Rooting hard for 53 to make it and collect some decent $$$.

Mikel started the first defensive series.

I know they’re going to rotate guys through, but I’m assuming that means he had one of the best weeks of practice out of the LBs.
