Nearly 40% of all NFL players come from 18 schools

Posted on

Recruiting in college football is a lot easier if a school can show kids that they produce NFL players, and no school has more players on this season’s NFL rosters than Louisiana State University.

Things may not be going so well for LSU this season after their loss to Troy at home, but they did have 51 players on NFL opening-week rosters. LSU was second to Alabama a year ago.

In all 18 schools have at least 30 players in the NFL this season, accounting for 40% of all players on rosters in Week 1.
