Combine gets another year in Indy … The NFL announced earlier this morning that the annual scouting combine will be held again in Indianapolis in 2026. This year’s combine had already been slated for Indianapolis, but that was the last year of the NFL’s previous agreement with the city and the league had accepted bids from other cities for future years as it explored ways to make the combine a bigger event with more fans and potentially more TV viewers. NFL teams, though, have tended to prefer sticking with Indianapolis because of its central location and easy access to hotels.
