  As an NFL hopeful at the University at Buffalo, Evin Ksiezarczyk had a daily routine of training at the football weight room next to UB Stadium. That routine ended March 16 when he learned the football weight room was closed as part of a shutdown by the school due to the Covid-19 outbreak. Ksiezarczyk, an offensive lineman from West Seneca East who played at UB from 2015 to 2019, immediately made plans to find a local gym and a trainer in lieu of using UB's facilities and working with its athletic personnel. But later in the day, many of the gyms and training facilities in Western New York had also closed per orders from New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo. That left Ksiezarczyk without a place to prepare for a future in professional football.

"I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to do," Ksiezarczyk told The News last week. "I did not expect any of this to happen." Scouts have told The News that Ksiezarczyk could be a late-round draft pick, or could sign as an undrafted free agent and compete for a spot on an NFL roster in training camp. But even after he participated in UB's pro day March 11 at the Murchie Family Fieldhouse, many NFL hopefuls like Ksiezarczyk, who aren't slam-dunk first-, second-or third-round prospects in the draft are trying to figure out how to negotiate preparation for the NFL. "It was good to have our pro day early," Ksiezarczyk said. "If not, it probably would have been canceled." - Buffalo News
