ON LOCATION (MOBILE, ALABAMA): PANINI SENIOR BOWL BUZZ
Down the stretch we come for the 2026 all-star circuit, as All Access Football descends upon Mobile for the prestigious Panini Senior Bowl. All 32 NFL teams are represented with 28 general managers and more than one dozen head coaches on hand to get an up close look at some of the premier draft-eligible prospects for the 2026 NFL Draft.
The event has shifted away from the traditional NFL team staffs and now implements a collection of top coaching assistants from around the league. Serving as head coaches this week will be Clint Hurtt of the Philadelphia Eagles and Joel Thomas of the New Orleans Saints. Practice windows are also 15 minutes shorter this year and while much of the practice has been utilized for team drills, there has still been adequate time allowed for one-on-one drills.
The trenches always seem to bring out the adrenaline and we saw some tempers flare at the end of a rep between Arizona State offensive tackle Max Iheanachor and Michigan defensive end Derrick Moore, with fellow Wolverines teammate Rayshaun Benny interjecting as punches were thrown. Moore has provided the highlight of the week with his steamrolling of Miami offensive lineman Markell Bell.
In terms of speed, LSU wideout Barion Brown has clocked the fastest mark of 20.35 mph during practice this week. Other burners include Ted Hurst of Georgia State (20.33 mph) and Arkansas cornerback Julian Neal (20.22 mph). Below, we have highlighted one dozen offensive standouts whose NFL Draft stock is sure to be on the rise after their performance in Mobile. Be sure to check back for our defensive edition of Senior Bowl standouts, as we continue to count you down to the 2026 NFL Draft in Pittsburgh, just 84 days away!
The 77th Panini Senior Bowl will kick off at 2:30 p.m. ET (1:30 p.m. CT) on Saturday, Jan. 31, from the University of South Alabama’s Hancock Whitney Stadium and will be televised on NFL Network.
