By Zach Babajanof-Rustrian | Sports Writer

Baylor football had six Bears represent the green and gold on Saturday in the inaugural Big 12 Pro Day at the Ford Center in Frisco, with five competing in the events.

One opted out because of an injury, but they all hope to be drafted in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Baylor had offensive lineman Clark Barrington, defensive linemen TJ Franklin, Gabe Hall and Justin Sambu, and linebackers Mike Smith Jr. and Byron Vaughns participating in the Big 12 Pro Day.

Throughout the weekend, the players were able to meet with NFL scouts from all 32 teams, as well as participate in student-athlete evaluations to assess player skills to maximize the prospect experience.
