Senior Bowl 2021 Preview
There will be 134 players from college programs around the country represented at the Senior Bowl this season, giving them one last chance to raise their draft stock. The American Team will be coached by the Carolina Panthers, while the Miami Dolphins’ staff will work with the National Team.
College players have limited chances to work in front of scouts due to restrictions in place for the pandemic. Players like Notre Dame quarterback Ian Book — who had a record-setting career at Notre Dame — are embracing the experience and looking to make the most of it.
“This is more important, the pro day is more important, and it’s about taking every rep one at a time and going out and competing,” Book told reporters. “I had a really good time today competing with the best of the best. That’s why you play football.”
Some players entered the Senior Bowl week with a good amount of rust, some playing just a few games this season and others not seeing a field at all due to scrapped season and opt outs. But Panthers coach Matt Rhule thought it was a good thing for the players to get out, knock that rust off and put some things on tape.
“I think opting out is just like transferring to me,” Rhule said. “It’s just like any other personal decision. I just always want to understand why. COVID has affected everyone so differently that I’m not here to judge anyone on their reaction to it. But it’s always big decisions.”
