  • Players from the local universities in Kentucky will take part in the NFL combine.
  • Live reporting on the event takes place in the NFL Network and NFL+.

Ashton Gillotte and Quincy Riley had the opportunity to declare for the NFL design last year, but both decided to return to Louisville Football for the 2024 season. The two cardinals wanted another year of growth and development to improve their design of the shares.

Although their figures have dropped some last season, the two are still in line to be Draft picks and were selected to take part in the NFL combination in Indianapolis.

The combine harvester begins with line backers and defensive linemen on Thursday at 3 p.m., followed by defensive backs and tight ends on Friday at 3 p.m. Quarterbacks, Wide Receiver and Running Backs will compete on Saturday at 1 p.m., and the combine harvester will end with offensive lines on Sunday at 1 p.m.

Riley has the opportunity to be the third Louisville cornerback in so many years after Kei'trel Clark (2023) and Jarvis Brownlee (2024). If Gillotte were selected, he would be the first U of L defender to be selected since Yaya Diaby, his former teammate. During the pre -combination interviews, Gillotte said that Diaby was someone he studies to prepare for the NFL. Born in Florida, he also said that he had an informal meeting with the Tampa Bay Buccaners, the current team of Diaby.

The NFL design of 2025 is located in Green Bay, Wisconsin from April 24th to 26th.
