If someone drafts Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein with the intention of making him a tight end, it won’t happen because of his performance at the Scouting Combine in tight end drills.

Klein’s agent, Peter Schaffer, tells PFT that Klein will not be participating in tight end drills in Indianapolis.

So while Klein will be asked to work out with the tight ends, he won’t be accepting the invitation. “Collin is excited to work out as a quarterback to demonstrate to the powers-that-be that he is an NFL quarterback,” Schaffer said.

Eventually, Klein may have to choose between joining the NFL as a tight end or going to another pro football league in order to play quarterback.
