Eighteen former Georgia Tech football players are scheduled to participate in the team’s Pro Day, which will take place on March 14.
The two who will likely draw the most attention are safeties Juanyeh Thomas and Tariq Carpenter, who earned invitations to the NFL scouting combine and the Senior Bowl, respectively.
Two others that NFL scouts will likely want to see are former Tech offensive tackle Devin Cochran, who played in the East-West Shrine Bowl with Thomas, and cornerback Tre Swilling, who took part in the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl.
The players will be tested on the drills performed at the combine, including the 40-yard dash, 225-pound bench press and the 3-cone drill.
