FRISCO, Texas — Seven former BYU offensive and defensive linemen, including first-team all-conference players Tyler Batty and Caleb Etienne, participated Wednesday in the first on-field workouts at the 2025 Big 12 Pro Day taking place in Frisco, Texas.
Conducted in the Ford Center at The Star, a 12,000-seat stadium that serves as the practice facility for the Dallas Cowboys on the campus of its world headquarters, the Big 12 Pro Day this year features more than 200 conference players showcasing their abilities doing combine tests and position workouts for nearly 300 NFL scouts and personnel representing all 32 NFL teams. Offensive linemen, defensive linemen and linebackers took their turn on the field on Wednesday.
Batty, who previously attended the annual NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, conducted position workouts and participated in meetings with NFL personnel during the Big 12 Pro Day while letting stand his results at the Combine. During the Combine, Batty recorded a 4.78 40-yard dash, 34-inch vertical leap, 10-foot broad jump, 7.21 three-cone drill, 4.54 20-yard shuttle and 27 reps of 225 pounds on the bench press.
Etienne, who started at left tackle in 2024 for the Cougars after playing right tackle in 2023, posted strong results to consistently rank among the best of the 32 offensive linemen participating in the workouts. Showing his agility and athleticism even with his large 6-7, 329-pound frame, Etienne tied for the top broad jump (9’6”), had the third-best 40-yard dash (5.01), tied for No. 3 in the vertical leap (30), had the third-most bench reps to rank tied for No. 5 in the event (30), demonstrated the fifth-best reach block (9.37), ranked No. 10 in both the pull drill (14.58) and pass rush drop (6.16) and was 12th in the 3-cone drill (7.94).
