Report: Tyquan Lewis Contracted the Flu, Combine Participation In Doubt

The specter of influenza haunts America every winter. The 2018 strain is particularly deadly. Even future NFL players at the combine aren't safe.

Former Buckeye defensive end Tyquan Lewis, who hoped to improve his draft stock with an impressive outing, is reportedly one of the inflicted in Indianapolis.

This is not good. The flu is going around the Combine and #OSU DL Tyquan Lewis is among those who have it. He may not be able to participate in drills.

Lewis would be the second Buckeye unable to compete after Billy Price partially tore his pectoral muscle while bench pressing Thursday afternoon.
