CORVALLIS — At the East-West Shrine Game in January, Storm Barrs-Woods got his first taste of the business side of the NFL.

After a scout learned another player was hurt, communication immediately stopped.

"That put a lot in perspective," Barrs-Woods said. "It's cut-throat. But at the same time, it's a blessing to be having an opportunity to play in the NFL."

The former Oregon State running back, along with eight other participants, got his latest chance to make a case for an NFL opportunity on Friday at the school's annual Pro Day in Corvallis following an up-and-down college career.
