Report: Marvin Harrison Jr. Won't Work Out At NFL Combine

Ohio State Buckeyes star Mavin Harrison Jr. is not expected to perform drills at the NFL Scouting Combine later this week in Indianapolis.

Marvin Harrison Jr. proved his dominance as the top receiver prospect in the 2024 NFL Draft during his final season with the Ohio State Buckeyes. 

For now, he's letting his production do most of the talking. 

According to Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer, Harrison is not expected to do any testing at the NFL Scouting Combine this week in Indianapolis. He is expected to meet with teams for interviews and schedule in-person visits before April 25 but nothing more. 

Harrison, a two-time All-American and Heisman finalist is not expected to work out at Ohio State's Pro Day alongside the other potential draftee prospects. 

According to Breer, Harrison's on-field work is enough for scouts to pinpoint the flaws in his game. Testing won't change the persona of Harrison's overall draft stock, who entered the year projected to land inside the top five after a 1,000-yard campaign in Columbus. 

“His sterling reputation as a worker and a person also give Harrison even more flexibility here," Breer wrote. "That allows everyone to view Harrison’s plan as strictly a business decision, made with an eye towards having a great rookie year, rather than as some reflection on his character.”

Harrison hasn't been working out on combine drills like other targets. Instead, his focus has been on little areas like footwork, change of direction, and hand usage in the open field. 

Last season, Harrison totaled 1,211 yards on 67 catches for 14 touchdowns. His highlight moment came against Penn State, where he hauled in 11 catches for 162 yards and a game-clinching touchdown. 

In two seasons as the Buckeyes' No. 1 target, Harrison finished with 155 receptions for 2,613 yards and 31 touchdowns. He was a two-time Big Ten Receiver of the Year and one-time Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year.

Harrison, who will not be represented by an agency, looks to be the highest-drafted receiver in program history, surpassing Terry Glenn (No. 7) in 1996. Should he land within the first four picks, Harrison would be the highest receiver drafted since A.J. Green (No. 4) in 2011. 

Early mocks believe Harrison will come off the board at No. 3 to the New England Patriots or No. 4 to the Arizona Cardinals.
