NFL Combine medical rechecks take place late next week and Michigan’s Maurice Hurst was not requested back for them, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com tweets. That is a positive sign for the defensive lineman after he was found to have a heart condition during the February combine, cutting his stay in Indianapolis short.

Hurst was allowed to participate in the Wolverines’ pro day and could still come off of the board early if he passes physicals with enough teams (or, perhaps, the right teams). The Browns recently met with Hurst and they could be among the clubs to consider him with second round picks at No. 33 and No. 35.

Although Hurst is a bit undersized for the defensive tackle position, he has been lauded for his explosiveness and hand moves to get around linemen. From a talent perspective, he’s one of the best interior pass rushers in this year’s class, but his medical situation will ultimately dictate his draft stock.
