It wasn’t how Hendon Hooker wanted to go through the NFL Combine, but it was still a productive weekend in Indianapolis for the former Tennessee quarterback. Though he couldn’t go through on-field drills, he did go through medical checks with teams. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, those checks went pretty well.

Rapoport reports that Hooker is on track to be ready for the NFL season opener in September.
