INDIANAPOLIS—Texas A&M ties a school record with nine 2017 NFL Combine invitations for the event which will be held in Indianapolis from Feb. 28- Mar. 6.
The nine Aggies are Jermaine Eluemunor (OL), Justin Evans (DB), Myles Garrett (DL), Avery Gennesy (OL), Daeshon Hall (DL), Trevor Knight (QB), Speedy Noil (WR), Josh Reynolds (WR) and Ricky Seals-Jones (WR). Three of the nine, Garrett, Noil and Seals-Jones are juniors who declared early for the NFL draft.
The previous mark was set in 1992 when seniors Keith Alex (OL), Quentin Coryatt (LB), Chris Crooms (DB), Keith McAfee (RB), Bucky Richardson (QB), Randy Simmons (RB), Kevin Smith (DB), Kary Vincent (DB) and Mark Wheeler (DL) attended the NFL Combine. Eight of the nine were drafted with two going in the first round -- Coryatt going second overall to the Indianapolis Colts and Smith to the Dallas Cowboys with the 17th overall pick.
The Aggies had eight players invited in the 1999, 2000 and 2001 NFL Combine events.
