  Now more than ever, overall body of work by a player will be evaluated more than an agility drill or 40-yard dash. Those five Hilltoppers have taken their own routes to train with similar position groups since the season ended with a 9-4 record and a bowl win on Dec. 30. Season production has helped guys in the past like current NFL Hilltoppers Forrest Lamp, Tyler Higbee, Jack Doyle and Taywan Taylor. Pro days and individual workouts suited George Fant the best. He was a four-year star for the Hilltopper basketball team and barely played at tight end in his fifth-year eligibility. But his athleticism and individual workouts earned him a spot with the Seattle Seahawks where he was at one point the starting left tackle. The Bowling Green native recently signed a three-year, $30 million deal with the New York Jets.

"It may play in our guys' favor," Helton said. "We'll see, but the dynamics have changed. Who knows what happens, whether it hurts or helps them. The NFL does a great job and nothing will come out of this where a guy got missed. Our guys are working hard and trying to put their best foot forward to get their shot." The wide receiver Jackson certainly likes his own tape from 2019. He led the team with 94 receptions for 1,133 yards. His 209 catches rank second all-time at WKU and 2,680 receiving yards are third in school history. "In a situation like this where you're not able to have a pro day in front of scouts and other things they can judge off of, you have to go off what is already out there," Jackson said in a phone interview with the Daily News. "I played a lot of years so I've played a lot of football and a bunch of different games against different opponents, so I feel comfortable with my tape. That's up for them to judge. I'm waiting for my opportunity to perform." - BG Daily News
