The 2020 NFL combine has arrived. Beginning Sunday, draft prospects are arriving in Indianapolis to get ready for the biggest series of job interviews and tryouts of their life.
The players will have different schedules, depending on their position group.
Here is how the groups are split up.
Groups 1-3: Quarterbacks, receivers, tight ends
