Oklahoma has two players playing in their final ‘college’ game of their careers.
Jalen Hurts and Neville Gallimore will play against each other in the Reese’s Senior Bowl. Hurts will don his Oklahoma jersey number No. 1 and Oklahoma helmet for the Senior Bowl South team, as Gallimore will don his Oklahoma jersey number No. 90 for the Senior Bowl North team.
The former Oklahoma signal-caller got off to a rough start in day one in Mobile, Alabama, at practice, reportedly missing open receivers and being late on throws. Hurts got better as the week went on, but ended up as the South team’s No. 2 quarterback behind Oregon’s Justin Herbert.

Gallimore, on the other hand, raised his draft stock immensely down at the Senior Bowl.
“Personnel directors and scouts I spoke with worried about his ability to create disruption on his own,” wrote NFL.com writer Chase Goodbread. “This week, Gallimore may have put some of those concerns to rest. He opened the door for teams to view him differently, at minimum. The former Sooner was able to translate his trademark high energy and athleticism into frequent pocket pressure in one-on-one drills. He also helped muddle lanes vs. the run. Gallimore might be a somewhat polarizing prospect, but this was a good week for him.”
