According to NFL Draft Diamonds, the San Francisco 49ers were in attendance for the pro day of Calvin Ashley, a massive offensive tackle who transferred from Auburn for one season at Florida A&M in 2019. He opted to forego his senior year to declare for the NFL Draft.
The other teams reportedly in attendance were the Las Vegas Raiders, Chicago Bears, Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Denver Broncos, and Jacksonville Jaguars.
The MEAC conference did not compete this past season due to COVID-19, making Ashley's decision to go pro easier. He helped the Rattlers to a 9-2 record during his seven starts at right tackle in 2019.
Ashley is listed at 6-foot-7 and 335 pounds.
