Three representatives from the NFL's Denver Broncos and one from the Chicago Bears are attending Friday's game between Ohio State and USC.

According to a report from Mike Klis of KUSA-TV, the Broncos' representatives at Friday's game will include president of football operations and general manager John Elway, director of player personnel Matt Russell and senior personnel advisor Gary Kubiak, who was formerly the Broncos' head coach. The Broncos are likely to be taking a close look at USC quarterback Sam Darnold, who is projected to be a first-round pick if he declares for the 2018 NFL draft.

Other potential top prospects who could catch the Broncos' and Bears' eyes on Friday include Ohio State center Billy Price, cornerback Denzel Ward and defensive ends Sam Hubbard, Tyquan Lewis and Jalyn Holmes. Other top prospects for USC include running back Ronald Jones II, linebacker Uchenna Nwosu and wide receiver Deontay Burnett.
