He was ranked the top overall prospect and defensive end by Sports Illustrated, ESPN, Pro Football Focus, and NFLDraftScout.com.[1][2][3][4] He received an invitation to the NFL Combine and performed all drills and positional drills except for the 3-cone drill and short shuttle. He opted to attend Texas A&M's Pro Day and attempted to beat his times in the 40-yard dash, 20-yard dash, and 10-yard dash.
