The Arkansas Razorbacks feature their fair share of veteran talent entering the 2022 season, making them an obvious watch for Senior Bowl officials throughout the year. As the season approaches, the seven seniors from roster have been placed on a watchlist which could score them an invite to the 2023 Senior Bowl festivities in front of scouts across the NFL.

As the first stop for many NFL executives in the lead-up to draft day, the Senior Bowl offers the players who stayed in college for all four – or more – seasons rather than exiting for the professional ranks as a junior. The event has produced many success stories over the years from marquee names in the first round to surprise showings which land an unknown prospect on a roster in training camp.

The 2023 Senior Bowl watchlist has an Arkansas-heavy look with four defensive players and three offensive players making the early edition.

Arkansas players on 2023 Senior Bowl watchlist

Simeon Blair, S

Entering his fourth season with the Razorbacks after a 2021 breakout, Blair hopes to build on his 38 tackles, one sack and four pass deflections to impress scouts and earn an invite.

Latavious Brini, S

After transferring from Georgia to Arkansas this offseason, Brini hopes to build on the 38 tackles and eight pass deflections he made for the national champions in 2021.

Trey Knox, TE

After starting his career at wide receiver, Knox has shown great development at tight end since his transition. There are high hopes and Arkansas and surely at the next level about his continued improvement.

Bumper Pool, LB

Pool returns for his fifth season on the field for Arkansas, coming off a pair of 100-tackle seasons. With his big-time production stretching into a third full season, his spot on the list was an obvious choice.

Ricky Stromberg, OL

Stromberg has provided Arkansas with consistency on the offensive line over his time. At 6-foot-4, 310 pounds, he has the size to make an impact against any level of competition on the interior.

Dalton Wagner, OL

At 6-foot-9, 330 pounds, Wagner is one of the biggest offensive lineman on the 2023 Senior Bowl watchlist. His measurables and consistent film against top prospects could provide scouts with excitement.

Zach Williams, EDGE

Williams has taken on a steady increase in production over his first three seasons, playing in more games each year. He has 56 tackles and 4.5 sacks so far with a chance to break out in 2022.
