We have already seen that NFL scouts and coaches ask some extremely wacky questions at the NFL Combine. However, this question was a little bit more legitimate, and it apparently led to a wacky answer.
Former Ohio State defensive end Noah Spence had some drug issues in his time with the Buckeyes, testing positive twice for Ecstasy, which got him banned from the Big Ten. Spence transferred to Eastern Kentucky, and is still looking at making the NFL by working out at the NFL Combine.
Well, one of his alleged answers to a Combine question might get him into a little bit of trouble.
Spence actually responded on Twitter, refuting the report.
Edholm doubled back on his stance, saying that he is just relaying information that he had heard from an NFL team.
Whether it is true or not, this is still a bad look for Spence. It further shines the light on his drug issues instead of his skill, and it leads to the idea that he may be bad at keeping things in the locker room. We will have to wait and see where this ends up going, but for the time being, Spence is taking a hard-line stance of denial that he ever said this at the Combine.
