Former Penn State football offensive lineman Olu Fashanu reportedly suffered a right thigh injury at the NFL Combine Sunday, according to NFL Network correspondent Stacey Dales on Twitter.

Unfortunately Penn State’s Olu Fashanu told me he is done for the day at the combine. Told me it’s a right thigh injury. Said he should be okay by his pro day March 15. Ultra competitive and an awesome guy, he’s in good spirits.

Dales reported Fashanu will not compete in the rest of the combine’s activities Sunday but will be available for Penn State’s Pro Day on Friday, March 15.

Fashanu recorded a 5.11-second 40-yard dash time, 32″ vertical, and 9’1″ broad jump before reporting the end of his day.

Fashanu registered a 9.49/10 RAS score (Relative Athletic Score), which ranks him as the 67th-best offensive tackle performance at the NFL Combine since 1987.

Olu Fashanu has an unofficial 9.49/10.00 #RAS.

This would rank him 67 out of 1293 OT from 1987 to 2024.
