Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s family responded to Todd McShay’s report that NFL scouts believe Jaxon is healthy enough to play and is protecting himself for the draft
After Ohio State wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba announced earlier this week that he would miss his team’s matchup against Georgia in the College Football Playoff with a hamstring injury—and subsequently ending his college career by declaring for the NFL draft—ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay reported that Smith-Njigba’s decision. Now, the star wideout’s family has issued a scathing response for McShay.
“There are a lot of reports from NFL scouts that I’ve talked to [who] said he’s healthy enough to play and he’s protecting himself for the draft,” McShay said. “I got news for every prospect out there: NFL teams know. They know what you had for lunch last Thursday,” he continued. “They’re gonna know whether you’re healthy or not and if you’re healthy enough to play, you need to be out there with your teammates and play.
