The 2016 NFL regular season is officially over and the 2017 offseason is gearing up already. First thing on the docket is the 2017 NFL combine, which will, as it does every year, take place in Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium.
The combine kicks off in late February and features hundreds of college football players trying to boost their stock by running around in their underwear (OK, there’s more to it than that).
Those players are grouped by position and undergo a battery of tests -- physical, mental and emotional -- during their four days in Indy. The final day is primarily the workout day for players on television. Speaking of which, here’s how to watch and stream the NFL combine.
Here’s the full breakdown for each group’s schedule.
Day 1 - Group 1 (PK, ST, OL), Group 2 (OL), Group 3 (RB)
The first group to arrive in Indy is offensive linemen, special-teamers, placekickers and running backs.
Here’s their schedule for the week:

Day 2 - Group 4 (QB, WR), Group 5 (QB, WR), Group 6 (TE)
