Wisconsin’s J.J. Watt and Penn State’s Stefen Wisniewski both enjoyed productive, award-winning Big Ten careers that have led to each being top prospects and potential first-round draft picks in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Leading up to the recent NFL Combine and their respective Pro Days, Watt and Wisniewski chose Athletes’ Performance to support their performance goals with integrated training, nutrition and recovery strategies as part of the Combine/Pro Day preparation which supported a total of 85 draft-eligible athletes this year.
