Did you know a #Purdue (and @Colts) team doctor helped bring the @NFL combine to Indianapolis? 🏈 Learn how Dr. Donald Shelbourne and his Methodist Hospital colleagues helped keep it there by providing unbeatable medical service at the event. purdue.university/3MZwf3Q

Did you know the roots of the modern combine have a strong Purdue connection from which it grew from? Check out the story about how our program played a role in what you see today. 🚂⬆️ #PurdueAT stories.purdue.edu/why-is-th…

Why is the NFL combine in Indy? Ask a former Purdue doctor.

Dr. Donald Shelbourne, former team physician at Purdue and with the Indianapolis Colts, convinced the NFL to bring its scouting combine to Indy in 1987.
