UCLA LB Myles Jack (knee) said his knee is fine and thinks the concerns hovering over it is a smokescreen. ‘As far as my knee goes, it’s absolutely fine. I’ve been working out for teams,’ Jack said. ‘I think you guys have seen the videos and stuff, so on my end everything’s fine. I don’t know if this is a smokescreen or whatever it is, but at the end of the day, whoever wants to take me will take me. I’m not worried about it.’
