The 2017 NFL Combine continues on Thursday with quarterbacks and wide receivers getting measured. One of the big questions heading into Thursday was how tall Mitch Trubisky is. There had been some early reports he would measure in under 6’2, but he ended up measuring in at 6’2 1/8, with 9 1/2 inch hands.
The difference between 6’1 and 6’2 is not a lot, but for a quarterback, teams will see a problem with a “shorter” quarterback. There are some shorter quarterbacks that have succeeded, but they are viewed as the exception not the rule.
