2025 NFL Scouting Combine: Schedule, key dates, Seahawks info, and more!

It’s that time of year! The 2026 NFL Scouting Combine takes place at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana. Also known as the ‘Underwear Olympics,‘ the combine is like the ultimate job market for the top prospects from not just college football, but the rising number of international players. As always, draft stock will be reaffirmed, rise, or fall based on what happens over the next several days between drills, interviews, medical reports, and anything else that comes up in Indy. I hope you felt good about your first mock draft, because it’s about to be less accurate after the combine ends.

The Seattle Seahawks only have four draft picks at the moment, coupled with the fact that they’re at the bottom of the order due to winning the Super Bowl. Nevertheless, an example of the Seahawks keying in on a combine standout is Nick Emmanwori, who was phenomenal in his drills and was drafted in the second round. I’d say Emmanwori has paid immediate dividends for the Seahawks’ top-ranked defense.

The combine runs from Monday, Feb. 22 through Sunday, March 2. Here are some other key dates and facts you must know:
