The Penn State pass rusher and projected top-five pick Abdul Carter will not work out during the NFL Scouting Combine. Carter is expected to partake in physical exams and interviews this week, but has not yet recovered from a shoulder injury he suffered during the Fiesta Bowl.

Penn State defensive end/outside linebacker Abdul Carter will not work out at the NFL's scouting combine this week because of a shoulder injury he suffered near the end of the Nittany Lions' season. Carter's agents -- Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey -- told ESPN's Adam Schefter that Carter suffered the injury in Penn State's win against Boise State in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals in December.

Kyle McCord (St. Joseph's Prep), Jihaad Campbell (Timber Creek), and Donovan Ezeiruaku (Williamstown) could be drafted early.
