The Vanderbilt star is one of 15 quarterbacks slated to take the field during the four-day session. Few passers will have as much riding on the spectacle as Pavia, who will hope to separate himself from his peers as a real option to NFL teams.

Pavia, 24, was one of college football’s finest talents across his final two seasons with the Commodores, producing more than 5,800 passing yards and 67 total touchdowns. His 2025 performance landed him SN’s College Football Player of the Year Award, placing him in elite company.

Still, he is unlikely to hear his name called early come draft day. Pavia is a borderline Day 3 pick, felled by perceived physical limitations. He’ll look to secure his draft stock with a glistening display across the Lucas Oil Stadium field throughout the combine.

Here’s what you need to know to watch Pavia’s combine workouts.
