The state of Florida’s three NFL teams will be holding their rookie minicamps beginning Friday, May 9, and going through Sunday, May 11.
Some NFL teams held their rookie mini camps the prior weekend.
No. 2 overall pick Travis Hunter will report for the Jaguars, as will the Dolphins’ No. 13 pick Kenneth Grant and the Bucs’ No. 19 pick, Emeka Egbuka, among others.
Rookie mini camps are three-day events where newly drafted players and rookie undrafted free agent signees get acquainted with their team and the NFL lifestyle.
Following the end to rookie minicamp, the teams will then come together for 10-session OTAs later in May, followed by three-day mandatory minicamps in June.
Each team’s schedule is a little bit different.
