Ohio State standout wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. will not work out at his school’s Pro Day on Wednesday, according to Sports Illustrated‘s Albert Breer.
Harrison, who is the consensus top wide receiver in a draft filled with premier pass catchers, asked nine teams he met with at the NFL combine whether or not they needed to see anything from him at Ohio State’s Pro Day. According to Breer, each team told him no, he opted to sit out Pro Day and instead continue training in Columbus for his NFL career.

In his three seasons at Ohio State, Harrison caught 155 passes for 2,613 yards and 31 touchdowns. Last season, he averaged a career-high 18.1 yards per catch with 14 touchdown receptions. He also added one rushing touchdown for the Buckeyes last fall.
Harrison’s decision to skip combine workouts and his school’s pro day is not expected to impact his draft stock whatsoever. Due to his lineage and innate ability that he’s shown at the college level, he’s a can’t miss prospect at wide receiver and is expected to be one of the top players selected in next month’s draft.
