Gervon Dexter is an intriguing prospect in the 2023 NFL Draft class. Earlier this year, he was receiving some Round 1 buzz, but that has since quieted.
Now at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, Dexter will be trying to prove that he should be an early round pick in April in Kansas City.

“It was a tough decision and it came down to the last minute,” Dexter explained.
