Former USC quarterback Matt Barkley threw in front of scouts Wednesday for the first time since injuring his shoulder in November. 

"A lot of the proof is in the tape -- that's where they look first," Barkley said. "But today was proof that I can still throw and make those passes down the field."

There was interest in Barkley's progress from the injury since he did not work out at the Senior Bowl in January or throw at the combine in February. Barkley appeared crisp, completing 55-of-60 attempts during the rehearsed passing display.
