INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 25 (UPI) -- Former Miami Hurricanes pass rusher Rueben Bain Jr. says NFL teams aren't "too concerned" about his arm length, which is considered suboptimal for a prospect.
Bain made the comments during his news conference with reporters at the 2026 NFL scouting combine Wednesday at the Indianapolis Convention Center. The Hurricanes defensive end is considered a first-round prospect.
"None of the teams seem too concerned with it," Bain said, when asked about his arm length. "As long as I just talk the talk, walk the walk and play with technique, nobody actually asks me about it."
An NFL scout told The Athletic that Bain's arms recently measured in at 30 3/4 inches. NFL scouts generally prefer prospects with an arm length of at least 33 inches.
