FROM FRIDAY:
This is not the report we wanted to pass along today.
According to multiple reports, NFL Draft prospect David Ojabo suffered what could be a serious injury during Michigan‘s pro day on Friday.
Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press confirms that a “pop” was heard when Ojabo was injured and that he was later seen on crutches with a boot on his left foot and a wrap on his left leg that went almost to his knee.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Ojabo, who was considered by just about everyone to be a top 20 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft. He is an outstanding young man who has a bright future in the NFL.
David Ojabo left Michigan pro day on crutches with a boot on his left foot and a wrap on his left leg that went almost to the knee.

Yep. … He was doing a pass drop drill, went down the line, started running up field and went to the ground. Took the air out of pro day https://t.co/T22eUKuw0Q
