Draft Analyst has learned Washington receiver John Ross, stamped as a unanimous first round pick, will undergo surgery to repair an injured labrum in his shoulder soon after the combine.
The present game plan is for Ross to participate in all the drills at the combine except for the bench press. Ross is expected to be one of the fastest receivers in Indianapolis if not one of the fastest players at the combine.
The week immediately after the combine, which leads up to Washington’s pro-day of March 11th, will be used by Ross to take part in any private workouts requested by NFL teams.
The belief is Ross initially hurt the shoulder during the teams 44-6 victory over Stanford in late September. Ross finished that game with 4 receptions, 82 yards and 1 score, then went on to play the remainder of the regular and post season with the injury.
According to Bradley Cicala, Ross’ agent, the speedy receiver purposely pushed back surgery in order to participate in the combine. I’ve been told Ross expects to be ready for training camp after the surgery.
