Scouting Combine

Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk reports that Los Angeles has expressed interest in hosting the Scouting Combine once their new stadium opens in Inglewood.

“Indianapolis is hard to beat because you’re not playing a losing team,” a league source tells Charean. “They’ve done such a good job for a long time.”

This comes after the recent comments from Cowboys executive VP Jerry Jones Jr., who mentioned that he believes they could host the Scouting Combine at their training facility in Frisco at some point.

The NFL extended their agreement with Indianapolis to serve as the host of the Combine through 2020.
