Former Irish stars take the NFL Combine

 

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - Having something to prove is nothing unique at the NFL Combine.

Still, that didn't mean the eight Irish who made the trip to Indianapolis weren't among that group hoping to fight for their spot with the elites.

Dexter Williams, Alex Bars, Miles Boykin, Alize Mack, Drue Tranquill, Te'Von Coney, Julian Love, and Jerry Tillery will all spend their weekend doing dozens on-field position drills, several medical tests and countless interviews as they make their pitch for pro teams to draft them this spring.

The first two Irish stars to arrive were Williams and Bars, with whom ABC57 spoke about the intense, yet important, process.
