The Kansas Jayhawks were represented by 10 players on the 12th Annual Senior Bowl Watch List, which was announced on Wednesday morning. KU is one of 22 schools in the country with 10 or more players on the list.

Jayhawks earning a spot on the list are quarterback Jalon Daniels, running back Devin Neal, wide receivers Lawrence Arnold, Luke Grimm and Quentin Skinner, offensive lineman Bryce Foster, defensive lineman Jereme Robinson, linebacker JB Brown and cornerbacks Cobee Bryant and Mello Dotson.

The watch list is composed of position players who were evaluated by the Senior Bowl staff and identified by the scouting team as the top draft prospects at every level of college football. Every player on the list is eligible to participate in an all-star game as either a 2020 high school graduate or a true four-year player.

Meanwhile in Kansas City Tyler Anderson outlasted Cole Ragans in a matchup of All-Star pitchers, and Zach Neto hit a go-ahead homer for LA, as the Angels beat the Royals 9-5 on Tuesday night to end the Royals' five-game winning streak.

The Royals are still tied with the Twins for second in the AL Central and for the second AL Wild Card spot, and sit just 3.5 behind the Guardians for first place in the Central with a month remaining in the regular season.
