Brandon Tate, Brooks Foster attend NFL combine

Posted Feb 21, 2009
UNC receiver/kick returner Brandon Tate is attending the NFL combine, but isn't ready to work out for scouts as his recovery from a season-ending knee injury continues. According to teammate Brooks Foster, Tate hopes to be ready to run and work out for scouts at the school's Pro Day on March 17. Foster is recovering from a much less serious knee injury and said he'll take part in all the combine workouts except the 40-yard dash. (Charlotte Observer)
