Multiple teams have asked Lamar Jackson to work out as a wide receiver at the NFL Scouting Combine, NFL Network's Peter Schrager reports, citing a source.
A Heisman Trophy winner as a quarterback, some NFL scouts have identified the Louisville product as a wideout at the pro level.
Jackson put up more than 9,000 yards as a passer in his three-year college career, and never recorded a catch.
He called the idea of moving to receiver "annoying" in January.
Jackson is expected to participate in the quarterback drills and has yet to determine whether he will work out as a receiver as well.
