The NFL Combine has kicked off this week, with 329 prospects heading to Indianapolis to conduct interviews and work out in front of NFL scouts.

The quarterback is always a top-position group. It may not have the stacked talent it had in previous years, but it's still intriguing.

One question regarding every quarterback is whether they will throw at the combine. That includes Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart.

NFL reporter Tom Pelissero has confirmed that Jaxson Dart will throw at the NFL Combine, as will Alabama's Jalen Milroe and Notre Dame's Riley Leonard.

Colorado's Shedeur Sanders will not throw, but there is uncertainty about whether Cam Ward will be on the field during workouts.

The on-field workouts for quarterbacks will occur on Saturday, March 1, with media and team interviews the day before.

Below are the quarterbacks who will be in attendance at the NFL Combine:

  • Max Brosmer, Minnesota
  • Brady Cook, Missouri
  • Jaxson Dart, Mississippi
  • Quinn Ewers, Texas
  • Dillon Gabriel, Oregon
  • Seth Henigan, Memphis
  • Will Howard, Ohio State
  • Riley Leonard, Notre Dame
  • Kyle McCord, Syracuse
  • Graham Mertz, Florida
  • Jalen Milroe, Alabama
  • Kurtis Rourke, Indiana
  • Shedeur Sanders, Colorado
  • Tyler Shough, Louisville
  • Cam Ward, Miami

Jaxson Dart impressed the scouts during college and propelled his draft stock further during the Senior Bowl.

Dart was seen as a second-round prospect, but recent noise suggests he could climb into the first-round conversation. A good showing at the NFL Combine will intensify that talk.

He left the Rebels as the all-time leader in passing yards in the program, surpassing the great Eli Manning. Dart lead quarterbacks in several stats in the SEC this past season, and there are more ticks in the boxes for the NFL scouts.
