The big man would have given his right arm to be working out on that practice field.
Alas, the right arm of UCLA defensive end Takkarist McKinley was in a sling Tuesday, with fresh bandages on either side of his shoulder from the labrum surgery he underwent the day after last month’s scouting combine.
Although representatives of all 32 NFL teams were on campus — including a pair of Hall of Famers in Rod Woodson and Kevin Greene — McKinley, a potential first-round draft pick, was relegated to spectator status. His recovery is expected to take four months.
