The Miami RedHawks had over a dozen prospects in attendance for their Pro Day earlier this month.

The Miami RedHawks got their prospective professionals in front of scouts early, inviting scouts from the various leagues to their athletic facilities on March 3rd. At least 13 former RedHawks were verified to have participated in Combine-style workouts, with several more listed but with no verified numbers.

Notable amongst the absences are former MAC Defensive Player of the Year Matthew Salopek and fellow linebacker Brian Ugwu. Salopek has no verified numbers, while Ugwu tore his pectoral during the bench workout and was unable to finish Pro Day. Neither player will have a listed profile below.

For our reports, we’ve pulled raw numbers from Draft Scout and RAS.football to assemble the RAS cards, which are used with express written permission of RAS’ creator Kent Lee Platte.
