Tight end Brock Bowers of the Georgia Bulldogs is a top prospect in the 2024 NFL draft class. Expected to be a high first-round pick in the coming month, he is reportedly suffering from a hamstring ailment that will prevent him from taking part in Georgia’s Pro Day later today.
Even though it’s unlikely that this injury would bother him throughout the NFL season, it’s worrying that one of the best non-quarterbacks in the class won’t be able to take part in the school’s Pro Day. Brock Bowers had surgery to treat a high ankle sprain last season, which caused him to miss a few games.
Nevertheless, he continued to generate output, amassing 56 receptions for 714 yards (12.8 yards per reception) and six receiving touchdowns, in addition to six attempts for 28 yards (4.7 yards per attempt) and a touchdown on the ground. Although it is not encouraging that Brock Bowers is battling with an injury ahead of the NFL draft, teams will still be very interested in what he can do for them.
Might this jeopardize his draft standing? Maybe. On April 10, he will, nonetheless, host a different exercise for NFL teams, according to ESPN’s Jordan Reid.
In the NFL draft of 2024, which team is Brock Bowers most suited for?
While the discussion surrounding Brock Bowers is fascinating, some teams may be interested in utilizing their pick on the Georgia Bulldogs’ roster. The Cincinnati Bengals, who own the 18th pick, appear to be a perfect fit for one team. Tee Higgins’ trade request will allow the Bengals to add another tight end to the lineup, which will increase their strength.
Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh may choose to take him with the fifth overall choice in the draft, which is another team that would be interested. Having a reliable target for Justin Herbert to throw to would be excellent because the team may be facing some cuts and has already lost running back Austin Ekeler.
