Joe Burrow laments missing Pro Day due to coronavirus pandemic

LSU quarterback Joe Burrow would've taken the field one last time with his teammates on Friday for his Pro Day ahead of the 2020 NFL Draft.

LSU's Pro Day has been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic, and the projected first-overall pick is pretty upset that he won't be able to do something he's looked forward to his entire life.

The Pro Day allows NFL scouts to visit schools and watch players compete in NFL Combine-like workouts ahead of the draft as one of their last opportunities to show what they're made of. 

These Pro Day workouts are a great way for scouts to get a final feel for players and it's a great way for non-combine players to show scouts what they can do. With the coronavirus pandemic canceling the event, many players have been left in an unsettling state.
