The NFL Scouting Combine has monsters on the grass.
Early in the 2025 combine, prospects are running through a series of drills testing their athletic prowess, making NFL future players slid left and right at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
There was a noticeable problem during the “wave drill.” This issue is expected to cause players to shuffle left and right and sprint over short distances, resulting in several players losing their balance.
Oklahoma linebacker Danny Statzman and Ole Miss Edge Rusher Jared Ivy were among the players who fell during the drill, but perhaps there were more people there as the audience noticed the trend.
The reason for sliding and sliding stems from the new grass at Lucas Oil Stadium.

The Colts, who play for home games on the grass at Lucas Oil Stadium, also had problems slipping during the regular season.
This new turf could affect the receiver's 40-yard dash time, with running backs coming on Saturday. This year's class is about to break Xavier Worthy's record time last year.
Worthy posted a 4.21 seconds of time and landed alongside the then back-to-back champion Chiefs on their 28th pick in the first round.
