NFL Professional Day Information and Rumors: David Ojabo injured at Michigan Professional Day
I’m informed Ojabo was taking part in defensive position drills with Aidan Hutchinson and Chris Hinton. The coaches had Hutchinson and Ojabo peel off and do protection drills. Ojabo dropped into house, planted his foot, caught the ball, and went down.
That is eerily akin to the best way Washington cornerback Sidney Jones tore his Achilles in the course of the Washington Professional Day in 2017.
How’d Ojabo’s harm occur, and what’s the newest?
As one scout available mentioned, “It didn’t look good.” Scouts I spoke with informed me it wasn’t a state of affairs the place Ojabo was overworked, fairly an unlucky turf harm.
Earlier right this moment, I used to be informed it was an ankle/foot/Achilles harm. I’m informed Ojabo is present process additional examinations so a remaining prognosis might be rendered. I’ve not heard again from Ojabo’s crew regardless of making an attempt to contact them this morning.
But, somebody within the interior circle informed me it’s “severe and appears like an Achilles harm.” Hopefully, that adjustments together with the ultimate diagnoses, as Ojabo has lengthy reigned on the highest 10 on my board.
Defenders shine at Michigan’s Professional Day
The aforementioned Hinton weighed in at 304 kilos, then timed 4.80 within the quick shuttle and seven.80 within the three-cone. I’m informed regardless of the slower than anticipated instances, Hinton seemed very clean and fluid in drills.
Evidently, scouts switched up the three-cone drill on the final second, placing a lot bigger cones instead of the smaller ones that gamers had been accustomed to, and the change damage everybody.
Linebacker Josh Ross ran the 40 once more and reportedly seemed actual good in drills. I’m a lot greater on Ross than most within the scouting neighborhood, and regardless of poor testing on the Mix, he’s a terrific linebacker.
It ought to come as no shock the Pittsburgh Steelers took him out to dinner after the occasion. Ross’ model of play parallels Myles Jack, who sarcastically simply signed a two-year cope with Pittsburgh.
