2026 NFL combine primer: Schedule, how to watch, 40-yard dash and more

The 2026 NFL Draft is the marquee event of the offseason, and the first big step in the evaluation process is right around the corner.

The 2026 NFL scouting combine will take place Feb. 22-March 2 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. The first day (player arrivals) and last day (OL bench press) don’t involve much, so we’ll stick to the big stuff in between.

Here is the full list of participants. The big names include Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, Miami edge Rueben Bain Jr., Ohio State WR Carnell Tate, Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love and more.

Combine coverage, including all on-field workouts and 40-yard dashes, will be broadcast on NFL Network. You can also stream on the NFL+ app.
