INDIANAPOLIS — Apparently former Rutgers receiver Leonte Carroo did some growing in the four weeks between the Senior Bowl and the NFL Scouting Combine.
Carroo measured 6-foot even on Thursday at the Combine. He had checked in at 5-foot-11 and 7/8 at the Senior Bowl in late January. Obviously 1/8 of an inch isn't going to make much of a difference on the field, but it's impossible to ignore the fact that 6-foot looks better than 5-foot-11 on paper.
With his 6-foot measurement, Carroo tied for 26th-tallest out of the 43 wide receivers at the Combine.
