What do you do if you were limited in the NFL Scouting Combine and didn’t have a Pro Day?
Improvise.
Despite getting a lot of praise from Reese’s Senior Bowl director Jim Nagy as being a top player at the all-star showcase, according to most mock drafts, his week-long performance did little for his draft stock. Uche was projected to the third-round and that’s where most experts still have him.
So Uche, knowing he has a diverse set of skills and the ability to be disruptive, made sure NFL teams knew just how good he can be. Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, he sent a video showcasing his skills to all 32 NFL teams on Thursday.

The 2020 NFL Draft starts next Thursday remotely. Uche is one of the invitees to the virtual draft, as he can take part electronically when he gets picked.
Given the change of circumstances due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, Uche is smart to do anything in his power to publicize himself to teams who might not know as much about him.
