Florida offensive tackle Jawaan Taylor, a potential first-round pick, won't perform in any of the drills at the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine after suffering a mild hamstring strain, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Taylor isn't expected to be sidelined long and will likely be good to run at his Pro Day on March 27.

The 6-foot-5, 334-pounder is competing with Alabama's Jonah Williams and Oklahoma's Cody Ford to be the first offensive tackle off the board, and could be chosen as high as the top 10.

However, it appears he'll have to wait to showcase his talents to NFL decision-makers.
