INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis colts held a pro day on Monday inside the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center for local prospects looking to improve their stock ahead of the 2022 NFL Draft.
While several of the athletes who participated are projected to be late-round picks or post-draft free agent signings, the Colts had the chance to meet with players from nearby football programs such as Purdue and Indiana.
In total, six Boilermakers made an appearance, including wide receiver David Bell, a graduate of Warren Central High School in Indianapolis. Bell did not participate in any drills, but he was able to talk to the Colts general manager Chris Ballard.
Bell also touched base with former Colts pass-catcher and first-year wide receivers coach Reggie Wayne.
Following Purdue's pro day back on March 29, Bell talked about what it would mean for him to stay close to home and play for the Colts in the NFL.
"I'm 15 minutes from the stadium," Bell said. "Grandma would be able to come to all the games. Also, I definitely would bring a big fan base, because a lot of people in Indianapolis support me. It definitely would be something nice to play for my hometown team."
The NFL Draft will take place between Thursday, April 28-Saturday, April 30 in Las Vegas. The first round starts at 8:00 p.m. ET on Thursday followed by the second and third rounds on Friday at 7:00 p.m. before Rounds 4-7 begin at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday.
