Texas DE Orakpo done for the day

This from a report by NFL Network’s Paul Burmeister:
Texas DE Brian Orakpo limped off the field a few minutes ago and went under the bleachers with one of the trainers. Orakpo is done for the day, and he just has a tweaked hamstring. He said he was worried after he thought he heard it “pop,” but the trainer said Orakpo was OK.
Before his workout session ended early, Orakpo was among the top 10 defensive linemen in the 40-yard dash and the vertical jump. He also posted a top-10 performance in the bench press on Sunday.
NFL Network’s Mike Mayock has Orakpo listed as his second-best outside linebacker and one of the five best overall prospects in the draft.
Orakpo’s Pro Day workout is scheduled for March 25.
