Two Former Wildcats to Compete in NFLPA Collegiate Bowl

It’s officially senior showcase season for prospective NFL Draft picks. Over the next week there are three games for outgoing college football seniors to show off their stuff one more time for NFL front office personnel. It all begins Saturday evening in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl.

Interior offensive lineman Tashawn Manning will represent Kentucky for the American team, while cornerback Keidron Smith will suit up for the National team. Jeff Fisher is coaching Manning’s squad. Smith’s will be led by one of Fisher’s pupils, former Heisman Trophy winning running back and current Tennessee State head coach Eddie George.
