Irish contingent impress at NFL combine

Irish kickers caught the eye in front of watching NFL scouts as they competed in the combine last night in Indianapolis.

The lads nailed kicks from a variety of distance including and up to 55 yards. A huge feat for 3 men who are very new to American Football. The lads made all the early kicks with all three going 5/5 early on.

While they all missed an attempt at 60 yards – this is a distance the majority of seasoned pros also miss at. The US coaches are said to be very impressed with all three kickers🏈

Earlier in the day, the players held interviews with all 32 clubs and now must wait to see if any have been impressed enough to offer them a spot on their practice squads.

Those offers, if they happen, could come as early as today or at any stage after the new season starts this September.
