The NFL announced on Thursday the full list of prospects who have earned invitations to the 2025 NFL Combine, and a pair of Mountaineers will find themselves representing the old-gold-and-blue at the event.

West Virginia offensive tackle Wyatt Milum and defensive lineman Sean Martin both received the prestigious invite from the NFL to attend the largest pre-Draft scouting session in the football world, held annually each offseason at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.



Both Mountaineers that received an invitation are also in-state natives. Milum hails from Kenova, W.Va and played high school ball for the Spring Valley Timberwolves, while Martin was raised in Bluefield, W.Va and starred on the gridiron for the Bluefield Beavers.

Milum was recently named the 18th-best overall player in college football from the 2024 season by popular sports data analytics firm Pro Football Focus (PFF), and became just the fourth-ever WVU offensive lineman to achieve Consensus All-American status. Milum saw action in 46 games over his career in Morgantown -- starting 42 contests -- and has been projected as a potential Day One or Day Two selection in the 2025 NFL Draft.

Martin appeared in 56 games and earned 34 starts over a five-year career with the Mountaineers. He tallied 99 tackles (19 TFL) and 8.5 sacks during his time in Morgantown. He was a two-time All-Big 12 Honorable Mention selection and was one of a select group of WVU players awarded the 2024 Iron Mountaineer Award.

On-field action and drills at the 2025 NFL Combine are set to to start on Thursday, February 27th and finish on Sunday, March 2nd. The event will be televised on the NFL Network
