UNC's Willie Lampkin stands out at 2025 Senior Bowl despite being undersized

Posted Jan 30, 2025
Former UNC offensive lineman Willie Lampkin entered the Senior Bowl at 5-foot-10 and 270 pounds, 3 inches shorter than any offensive line prospect ever and the second-lowest weight. He didn’t let that size preclude him from dominating. At this week's Senior Bowl practices, he's had impressive reps against some of the draft’s best defensive tackles. (Pro Football Focus)
