2022 NFL Scouting Combine will remain in Indianapolis; 2023 combine up for grabs between Dallas, L.A., others

The NFL Scouting Combine will remain at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis in 2022, NFL Executive VP of Football Operations Troy Vincent confirmed Tuesday. Vincent also noted that the hope is to bring “as much back to normal as possible” after the marquee offseason event has been altered recently due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. As for the combine process for the athletes specifically, Vincent added they are currently looking at changing the experience, saying, “We can do better.”

While the 2022 combine looks to be getting back on a more normal track, there is a monumental change possibly coming in 2023. Earlier this summer, it was reported that the league will open up the NFL Scouting Combine to all 32 teams. Any club that wants to host the combine can place a bid for it as soon as 2023 and up to 2028. 

Vincent said Tuesday that Dallas, Los Angeles, and Indianapolis will be bidding to host the event in 2023.
