Northern Alabama Pro Day

Per NFL Prospect analyst Gil Brandt:

Seven players worked outdoors on FieldTurf at North Alabama’s pro day.

The headliner was wide receiver Ed Gant. He measured in at 6-foot-1 1/2, 197 pounds. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.41 and 4.50 seconds, had a 32-inch vertical, a 10-foot, 3-inch broad jump, a 4.12 short shuttle, a 6.77 three-cone drill and put up 18 bench press reps at 225 pounds. This is the kind of player who shows so much athleticism he can be switched to defensive back, if it doesn’t work out at wide receiver.

RB Mike McClendon was another notable prospect and he checked in at 5-8 7/8, 196 pounds. He ran the 40-yard dash in 4.46 and 4.50 seconds, had a 24-inch vertical jump, a 9-foot, 7-inch broad jump, a 4.68 short shuttle, a 7.54 three-cone drill and put up 22 bench press reps.
