Fifteen Washington State players expected to partake in Cougars’ Pro Day

Fifteen Washington State football players will audition in front of NFL scouts this Thursday when the school holds its annual Pro Day event in Pullman.

The workouts will be split between the Cougar Football Complex and the Rogers Practice Fields on the WSU campus. The first segment of workouts will be held inside the football operations building before players move out to the practice fields.

WSU players expected to attend include nose tackle Daniel Ekuale, quarterback Luke Falk, Rush linebackers Dylan Hanser and Frankie Luvu, wide receiver Robert Lewis, offensive linemen Cole Madison and Cody O’Connell, defensive tackle Hercules Mata’afa, defensive lineman Garrett McBroom, running backs Gerard Wicks and Jamal Morrow, nickel Kirkland Parker, cornerback Marcellus Pippins, safety Robert Taylor and kicker Erik Powell.

Falk recently participated and threw at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, but according to multiple reports, the Pac-12’s career passing leader won’t be slinging any footballs on Thursday. Falk is however expected to throw at Utah State’s Pro Day, which will be held in his hometown of Logan on March 28.

The four-year starter has worn a brace on his left, non-throwing wrist since he had the wrist operated on following WSU’s appearance in the Holiday Bowl. Falk has said he expects to have the brace removed permanently in the next few weeks.

Morrow underwent surgery on the left foot he broke during the Holiday Bowl and was forced to withdraw from the NFLPA Collegiate Bowl, held Jan. 20 at the Rose Bowl. According to The Seattle Times, Morrow required three to four more weeks of recovery before he could begin to train for the NFL, though the versatile running back expected to be healthy for WSU’s Pro Day.

Thursday’s activities won’t be open to the general public.
