J.J. McCarthy and Michael Penix Jr. delivered the best NFL combine highlights from … a hallway

Michigan’s J.J. McCarthy and his Washington counterpart Michael Penix Jr. are among the quarterbacks who will reportedly throw in front of scouts at the 2024 NFL combine, unlike other stud QBs who will do it at their pro days.

But we already saw them show off their stuff … in a hallway.

I don’t know exactly where this is in Indianapolis — in the convention center, I’m guessing? — but it’s so fun to see them sling passes through the halls, with people casually watching. All I know is the NFL Network needs to be televising these along with the rest of the coverage.

Here you go:
