He didn't do any running drills.
Ryan is expected to be the first quarterback taken in the NFL draft, which will be held April 26 in New York.
He is projected to be a Top 10 pick, perhaps even first overall; he is currently ranked fifth by Scouts, Inc.
Ryan started in 32 of 45 games with Boston College, completing 59.9 per cent of his passes (807-1,347) for 9,313 yards and 56 touchdowns with 37 interceptions.
He completed 388 of 654 passes for 4,507 yards and 31 touchdowns with 19 interceptions last season, leading the Eagles to an 11-3 record.
"He takes command of the huddle, which is what great quarterbacks do," Eagles head coach Jeff Jagodzinski said.
Pro Day involved players from regional schools like BC, Bentley, Harvard, Holy Cross, Northeastern and St. Francis and UMass, and attracted NFL personnel like Kansas City Chiefs head coach Herm Edwards.
