Welcome to Combine week! The 2024 NFL Scouting Combine gets underway today as decision-makers from around the league descend on downtown Indianapolis for the next several days.
Between now and Monday, team officials, media members, and of course draft prospects will come and go through the city. Some NFL fans will also be in attendance as well; once again, the 2024 Combine also features an expanded opportunity for fans to observe workouts and participate in mini-Combine drills.
The draft prospects will arrive in waves, with different position groups keeping the same schedule, just staggered each day. The general cadence of a prospect’s schedule looks something like this:
Day one: Registration, orientation, and team interviews
Day two: Medical exams, more team interviews
Day three: Media and team interviews
Day four: Measurements and on-field workouts
Day five: Bench press and departure
This year, the defensive players arrive first, with those playing positions on offense following later on.
