OXFORD, Miss. – When Ole Miss kicked off spring practice Wednesday, three players were noticeably absent.
There was no Laquon Treadwell catching passes and mixing it up with teammates, no Laremy Tunsil locking down the left side of the offense line, no Robert Nkemdiche blowing up plays for the defense. All three have been busy preparing for the upcoming NFL draft.
“[It was] kind of dull,” Ole Miss running back Jordan Wilkins said. “The practice was quiet, not as excited, but we kind of got used to it. We worked into it, and a couple of the players that needed to step up stepped up.
