Ole Miss receiver Metcalf cleared for combine

Mississippi receiver D.K. Metcalf, who underwent season-ending neck surgery in October, has been cleared to resume all football activity ahead of the NFL Combine. His surgeon, Dr. Kevin Foley, said there are no limitations on Metcalf's activities.

Metcalf is training for the combine in Phoenix and has been projected as a potential first-round selection. The redshirt sophomore led the squad with five touchdown receptions at the time of his injury and had 26 receptions for 569 yards, a splendid 21.9 average yards per catch.

Metcalf missed the bulk of the 2016 season with a foot injury, but played in 12 games in 2017 and had 39 catches for 646 yards and seven touchdowns. The NFL Combine runs from Feb. 26 through March 4 in Indianapolis.
