Former Virginia Tech wide receiver Tre Turner had a big day Tuesday. The multi-year starter for the Hokies did something rare, participating in two pro days ahead of next month’s 2022 NFL draft.
Yes, Turner participated in all of his positional drills for Virginia Tech’s pro day in Blacksburg. However, before his workout in Blacksburg, Turner was in Lynchburg, catching passes from top quarterback prospect Malik Willis of Liberty.
That’s a smart move by Turner. The 6-foot-1, 184-pounder from Greensboro ran a 4.51-second 40-yard dash earlier this month at the NFL combine and wanted to get in front of NFL scouts with a top passer.
