The 2015 Senior Bowl was an all-star college football exhibition game featuring players from the 2014 NCAA Division I FBS football season as well as prospects for the 2015 draft of the professional National Football League (NFL). The game concluded the post-season that had begun on December 21, 2014. Sponsored by Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, it was officially known as the Reese's Senior Bowl.{{cite web|url=https://www.hersheys.com/reeses/lets-go/senior-bowl/|title=Let's Go REESE'S|work=The Hershey Company|accessdate=December 28, 2014}}
