Professional career

Pre-draft

On January 27, 2017, Langley appeared in the 2017 Reese's Senior Bowl as part of Chicago Bears head coach John Fox's North team. Langley recorded three combined tackles and intercepted Tulane quarterback Antonio Pipkin as the North lost 16–15 to the South. Langley was one of 60 collegiate defensive backs to attend the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, Indiana. He completed all of the combine drills and finished first among all defensive backs in the bench press and tenth in the 40-yard dash. On March 23, 2017, Langley attended Lamar's pro day, but opted to stand on his combine numbers and only performed positional and coverage skills for team representatives and scouts from ten NFL teams. During the draft process, he had private visits and workouts with multiple teams, including the New England Patriots, Denver Broncos, New York Jets, Arizona Cardinals, Minnesota Vikings, and the Oakland Raiders. At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, Langley was projected to be a fourth to sixth round pick by NFL draft experts and analysts. Langley was ranked as the 24th best cornerback prospect in the draft by NFLDraftScout.com. Шаблон:NFL predraft
