There were NFL stars all over Austin recently for former Longhorn Jeremy Hills’ Pro Stars Camp.
Hills’ camp has over 40 current NFL stars that work alongside kids ages 6-18. All of the proceeds go to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, foster houses in Austin and Alex Okafor’s Survivor Scholarship Program.
Texas running back Bijan Robinson and starting quarterback hopeful Casey Thompson were seen in front of a bowling alley with former Ohio State and current Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields. Joining them for a photo was arguably the best corner in the league, Los Angeles Rams’ Jalen Ramsey.
Ramsey and Fields were each in town for Hills’ camp.

If Thompson had the chance to pick the brain of Fields, it certainly would bode well for the inexperienced quarterback, as we all know the success Fields had after finally getting a chance. He parlayed that into two College Football Playoff appearances, a Heisman candidacy, and being selected in the first round of the 2020 NFL draft.
By attracting notable NFL stars to Austin, current players get the chance to work with and learn from a variety of professional football players and shows recruits the perks of being a Longhorn.
