Arkansas quarterback Austin Allen is one of approximately 300 players who have and will be invited to this year's NFL Combine in Indianapolis (Ind.).

Allen, Arkansas’ starting quarterback for the past two seasons, finished his career with 5,045 yards and 36 touchdowns.

After throwing for 3,430 yards and 25 touchdowns his junior year, Allen entered his senior season on many publications’ watch lists. Unfortunately, a shoulder injury forced Allen to miss four games and significantly lowered his production.

Allen heads toward the NFL with the eighth-most passing yards and seventh-most passing touchdowns in Razorback history.

The Jacksonville Jaguars selected his older brother and former Arkansas QB Brandon Allen with the 201st pick in the sixth round of the 2016 draft.

Now Austin joins his brother as the fourth-straight starting quarterback at Arkansas to make the NFL Combine. All three former players, Ryan Mallett in 2011, Tyler Wilson in 2013, Brandon Allen in 2016, were drafted. Mallett and Brandon Allen are still in the NFL.
