University of Wisconsin left tackle Ryan Ramcyzk will undergo arthroscopic surgery to repair a torn labrum in his hip after the Badgers face Western Michigan in the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 2, according to a report by the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.

The report quoted anonymous NFL scouts, and one said Ramczyk's recovery would take four months.

The injury could affect Ramczyk's draft stock. Currently a redshirt junior, the UW-Stevens Point transfer is considering jumping to the NFL a year early.

He's been projected as a late first- or early second-round pick, but the surgery would prevent him from working out for NFL teams. Ramczyk was expected to test out well athletically, and missing the NFL Combine, UW's Pro Day and other workouts could prevent him from moving up draft boards.

Ramczyk must decide whether or not he will enter the draft by Jan. 18.
