The National Football League, guided no doubt by its unwavering adherence to an moral code, decided a little over a month ago that Chad Kelly’s off-field transgressions should prohibit him from joining other top draft prospects at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis. No specific explanation ever emerged—even Kelly’s lawyers struggled to get a straight answer from league officials—though vague reports have suggested the former Ole Miss star’s baggage is worse than what’s been publicly reported.
In any event, Kelly gets the chance to show his stuff to NFL scouts on Monday at Ole Miss’ pro day.
