These Pro Days are important, as we saw just last year Cam Jones performing well at the Pro Day and ending up winning a Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs. While no Super Bowl is guaranteed, these Hoosiers hope to follow in Cam’s footsteps in the future, and a strong Pro Day is a great way to get there.
