As of Thursday afternoon, the most unusual question asked of Benny Snell during team interviews at the NFL Combine wasn’t all that unusual: What is a time you’ve overcome major adversity?
He was shy with media about one of the answers he’s given teams — “I don’t think I want to say that,” he said with a grin — but quickly pivoted to another instance familiar with anyone who’s closely followed the University of Kentucky’s career rushing leader: The Wildcats’ 27-16 win over Florida last September.
“I told ’em about the Florida game, when kind of how it was an even game going into halftime,” Snell said.
