Oregon State tight end Luke Musgrave is experienced a familiar uphill battle ahead of the 2023 NFL Draft. One of the top players at his position, a season-ending surgery led to the standout pass-catcher only playing two games for the Beavers in 2022. Musgrave was then cleared to participate and play in the Senior Bowl in Mobile last month but with him taking a similar hit to what caused his initial injury during the game, there was concern about his future health status.

Fortunately, Musgrave has received full medical clearance on his knee in Indianapolis at the NFL Combine, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport.

Musgrave played in the Senior Bowl last month and will participate in Oregon State's Pro Day, which will take place later this month.

Prior to the Senior Bowl, a determined Musgrave tells Draft Network's Justin Melo that ā€œIā€™d like to prove that Iā€™m still the same player, if not better, than I was before my injury. Iā€™m 100% healthy and ready to compete.ā€

At 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds, Musgrave has both the size and talent to be a difference maker at the next level. Though he desires to prove that heā€™s more than just an excellent pass-catching tight end, scouts raved about him at the Senior Bowl because of his combination speed and size.

ā€œIā€™m going to put the full range of my skill set on display. I also want to prove that Iā€™m a versatile player. Iā€™m not just a pass-catching tight end. Iā€™m a blocking tight end as well. You can move me around the formation because thatā€™s where I really shine as a player.ā€
