Former Ole Miss and NFL player Michael Spurlock is bringing his skills and drills football camp, hosted by the Neshoba County Youth Football League and the Michael Spurlock SecondWind Foundation, to Philadelphia.

The camp will be at 9 a.m. Saturday at Philadelphia’s Northside Park, but registration will begin at 7:30 a.m.

“All together, there have been about four camps we’ve had there, but it’s just something for the kids and it’s a way for them to interact with NFL guys, as well as something they can take back to their schools to better themselves for the season,” Spurlock said. “It’s a very inexpensive camp, but there will be a lot of learning (experiences) and things they can take away.”

Spurlock currently serves as a special teams quality control and defensive assistant at the University of Texas at San Antonio. He’s also an eight-year NFL veteran. He said he expects his camp to become even bigger in future years. 

“This year it will be just me because I got started a little later,” he said. “But for the upcoming years, now that I’m officially retired and more settled, I have a lot of guys I will be bringing back — big-name guys. At least once a year they can interact with and see them on a more personal level.”

Saturday’s camp will follow a combine-like format, Spurlock said. 

“They’ll have the 40, and it pretty much will almost be like a combine. We’re going to be going through position drills, and then at the end, we’re looking to have 7-on-7 to finalize the camp,” he said.
