Ohio State quarterback Will Howard stepped forward and took his place at the imaginary line of scrimmage toward the end of his NFL combine drills Saturday evening.
At first, the Lucas Oil Stadium crowd—dotted with Buckeyes fans—cheered Howard. But a chorus of boos quickly followed. As the spectators grew more engaged than they had in either of the previous two days at the combine, Howard missed both of his downfield passes to receivers Chimere Dike and Da’Quan Felton.
