As long as he does his pro day, it is all good.

eh, home turf allows for some manipulation. Do they use their own scales? are they calibrated and providing reliable measurement? Is the track sloped to allow a faster time? Why are you uncomfortable doing the same drills in an unfamiliar territory?

Is he not working out at the combine because of an undisclosed injury, no matter how minor?

I'd like to see conferences set up pro day for all their member teams at a neutral site if that's the way a lot of the players are gonna go. The purpose of the combine was to centralize the drills so that teams could maximize their evaluations. Now, we have to send scouts to multiple locations to check out every prospect we haven't pre-dismissed, and may not have the full staff at any one facility if there is overlap or travel to incorporate into the process.

I guarantee my first interview question would be "Why did you opt out of workouts this week?"
