Former Tar Heels in the NFL Combine
Posted Feb 27, 2012
UNC is well-represented at the NFL Combine, as Dwight Jones, Quinton Coples, and Zach Brown, among others, were all invited to participate. The Combine began on Saturday with offensive linemen and tight ends, but UNC didn't have any players in those particular categories this year. That category figures to change in the coming years though.
