NFL Network Reports Price Failed To Finish Bench
Stopped and walked off rubbing left shoulder...

If it is a tear, I think you have to assume he will not play his rookie year. If you get some playing time out of him his first year, consider it a bonus. I would think this knocks him out of the first round.
Too bad for him. 50+ consecutive games at OSU and he gets injured at his NFL audition.
Report: Center prospect Price has torn pec
The MMQB's Albert Breer reports Ohio State C Billy Price is believed to have suffered a torn pectoral during the bench press at the Combine.
The dreaded torn pec. How many of those did we deal with a couple years ago? But maybe you get him in the 2nd or 3rd round now.

Today they’re reporting just a partial tear, he may well be ready for camp?
Billy Price hoping pec injury doesn’t affect draft stockCenter Billy Price’s worst injury at Ohio State was an MCL sprain that didn’t even keep him out of practice. He set the school record for most consecutive starts with 55.
“That’s the irony behind it, I guess, and everybody’s making a headline out of it right now,” Price said. “Things happen. It’s football. You’re playing a very dangerous game. You’re training at a very high level, and everything you’re putting your body through to be the best and most prepared here at the combine, to be able to compete with your peers and to compete with the best centers in this class, the best guards in this class. It sucks. It did. Again, that was something I watched Quenton Nelson rip out 35, and I looked around and said, ‘OK, let’s go get this thing. Let’s go push the limit.’ Got in there felt great. Just something happens. It’s part of it.”
Seeking reps in the 30s on the bench press, Price said “something didn’t feel right” after three. An MRI diagnosed an “incomplete” pectoral tear. He will get a second opinion in the next few days. Surgery is not out of the question, he said, which would require a four-month rehab.
But it’s better news than it could have been as he will return in time for training camp.
“It’s a huge relief,” Price said. “You see guys completely tear their pec.”

im no doctor, but I can google like a mother fucker and I once drove by a holiday inn express so just take this for gospel... sometimes a partial tear is worse than a complete tear. the partial tear will scar up and feel ok, but the strength isnt right and ultimately it will let go completely or at least worse than before and likely cause further issues. IMO hes young and the damage has been done to his draft stock, get it fixed now and see where the chips fall.
