JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The NFL scouting combine is in full swing up in Indianapolis, and it’s the place to be.
Coaches, executives, scouts, and staff from all over the league are watching the best draft prospects take part in the activities leading up to April’s NFL draft.

Three members of the Jaguars’ brain trust — general manager James Gladstone, executive vice president Tony Boselli, and head coach Liam Coen — are the few not in attendance.
Their absences made headlines last week when it was announced that they wouldn’t be going to the Combine.
But Jaguars fans shouldn’t worry too much about that. Coen and Gladstone both cut their teeth in the league with the Los Angeles Rams, a franchise that doesn’t send its coach or GM to the Combine.
Gladstone said on Friday that the franchise is well represented in Indy, and that they are still very much a part of the process even if they stayed in Jacksonville.
“The Combine is a significant annual event on the NFL calendar, one that we value greatly,” Gladstone said in a statement.
“The information and data gathered in Indianapolis are integral to our process. We have significant and influential personnel in Indianapolis, inclusive of our scouts conducting interviews with a full allotment of prospects, and our medical staff is, of course, present and gathering player data. Every piece of information or video that we need from the NFL Combine is at our disposal, which allows us to make appropriate decisions on behalf of the Jaguars organization. I look forward to continued collaboration between our scouting and coaching staffs as we build our team for 2026 and beyond.”
