04/20/20 - ILB Kristian Welch, Sr/2020, Iowa

You could argue the NFL benefited from good fortune, as did many prospects who were invited to Indianapolis. But for so many others, the timing was disastrous. NFL-hopeful players who were not invited to the Combine have historically relied on their college's pro day to get noticed. That's the big day each one of these guys banks on; the few hours to get an audience of in-person NFL scouts and show what they can do. But as pro days across the country were canceled, a large swath of prospects felt left behind. Iowa linebacker Kristian Welch is one of those prospects.

"Not being able to get in front of coaches and scouts so they can see me do position work and other drills hurts their potential outlook on me," Welch said. "I am in the best shape of my life, and I think that would have truly showed at pro day." Imagine building toward a single day with more than a decade of tireless work … and then having it disappear from the calendar. That's what Welch grappled with when the heard the news while roaming the woods in search of shed deer antlers (a spring activity he enjoys). "I was extremely upset and just took a while to reflect," Welch said. "I am not one to feel sorry for myself, so I picked myself up and told myself to stay positive. "We always talk about in football, 'control what you can control.' And that's what I am trying to do during these trying times." - Iowa City Press-Citizen
