Does La'el get the 1-5 mill Insurance policy this year?

Was just reading an article about Marqise Lee likely about to cash in on his 5 mill deal because of his injury causing him to drop out of the first round, also an LB who was considered a first round pick who got injured and went undrafted.
It made me think about two past LSU OTs considered first rounders the year before their injury. Black and Faulk were considered top 3 OTs if I'm not mistaken, and both went undrafted due to their injuries. With what has happened in the past in that very position, it seems like the best thing to do is grab the insurance.
They were talking about how USC tells their projected high picks that it's something they need to do, I wonder if LSU does the same.
And yes I know Black did, this is about La'el though.

Faulk is different. He still had another year of eligibility, and may have been able to apply for an additional one since he got injured early enough in the season.
He chose to take his chance in the draft.

That's good.
Does anyone know the details behind these policies? i.e. how much are they? It just seems like it would be very subjective re: the reason a player drops in the draft.
Do they get paid for a sprained ankle while at the combine, etc?

Oh that's good to know. Hate to see stuff like that happen. The article also brought up the Ball St WR who projected to go first round about 5 or y years ago, but had a serious career ending injury the next year (he was putting up monster stats). He didnt have a policy.
