Next month, the draft prospects of Alabama football will have its Pro Day.

According to a report from NFL.com, the Crimson Tide will have its event on March 23. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the NFL Scouting Combine has altered its format.

All attention has shifted to pro days, where NFL teams will conduct tests, measurements, and all else needed to evaluate players.

Per NFL.com, each pro team is allowed up to three representatives at the respective collegiate pro days.

Alabama has the same date for its pro day as Iowa State, Nebraska, and Purdue.
