With the 2024 NFL Draft still a couple of months away, there is plenty of time left for some players to rise up those draft boards in war rooms across the league.

One of the best opportunities that they’ll have is at the Reese’s Senior Bowl, which will be played on Saturday, February 3rd at noon central time in Mobile, Alabama.

The game will be featured on NFL Network (and streamed on NFL+) and will have Andrew Siciliano, Daniel Jeremiah, Charles Davis, and Tom Pelissero on the call.

While there are other games for NFL hopefuls, the Reese’s Senior Bowl seems to be the most prominent game, and seemingly has standout players that skyrocket up draft boards every season after big performances in Mobile. This game is unique because the teams are coached by current NFL coaches, but not by a head coach.

In 2024, Detroit Lions defensive line coach Terrell Williams will coach the American Team while New York Jets defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich will coach the National Team. This is also just the second year where two full staffs from NFL teams will not be coaching the game. Each staff has coaches from different NFL teams.

Here are all the Big 12 players who will play in the bowl game on Saturday. From the looks of things, it is pretty clear that the Big 12 is well represented, although a bit unbalanced, considering that the National team has just six Big 12 players while the American team has 11.
