To be honest, former NFL defensive end Austen Lane didn't really have much of a pro career. The 28-year-old bounced from Jacksonville to Detroit to Chicago, starting just 17 games between 2010 and 2014.

However, Lane's recent Twitter game is worthy of a straight-up MVP award.

In light of the 2016 NFL Scouting Combine getting underway, Lane recently tweeted a series of questions he remembers being asked when he went through the process.

Only, Lane didn't just share the rather absurd questions he was asked a few years back, but he also included some amazing reaction GIFs to portray how he felt at the time.

The questions Austen Lane allegedly heard at the NFL Scouting Combine were beyond bizarre.

Like, who even says this type of sh*t?

Seriously, this is probably one of the more messed up things you can say to someone.

Why would anyone in the NFL have to murder someone?

And is this really anyone's business besides the individual wearing the underwear?

Get a grip, NFL.
