Final NFL count for opening day rosters?
We had one undrafted free agent (Bryce Callahan - DB with Bears) make the opening day roster in a bit of a surprise, and our 6th round NFL pick (Christian Covington - DL with Texans) also made the roster. So that's eight Rice guys who will be suiting up next week for various NFL rosters. I don't know for sure but that sure seems to be the most we've had in decades. Two others were final cuts today but maybe they make it back on a roster later this season for someone.

What's the count for other teams?

WKU

RB Bobby Rainey (Bucs)
TE Jack Doyle (Colts)
RB Antonio Andrews (Titans)

CB Cam Thomas (Bills - PUP)

TE Mitchell Henry was one of the last cuts for GB. Should be on a practice squad at the least this year.

Darryl Roberts got put on season ending IR with a bad wrist injury. He was actually slated to start for the Pats.

I believe Neville Hewitt made the final 53 for the Dolphins. Not official yet though (not confirmed).

Jasperse got cut by the Bengals, they had three centers on the roster, not sure why they even invited him.

Fronaphal got cut by the Chargers.

I think the following MT alums made final NFL Rosters:

1. Eric Walden OLB Colts
2. Josh Walker Guard Packers
3. Benny Cunningham RB/KR Rams
4. Jamari Lattimore LB Jets

CB Sammy Seamster was a Final Cut for the Saints could show up on somebody's Practice Squad.

I think with the injuries to Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb, Myles White has a chance to become a big part of their offense.

I think so. The last preseason game proved that point.

Also, Houston Bates will be part of the Washington Redskins practice squad.

The kid's told he's made the 53-man roster one day and is cut the next. The NFL is as cut-throat as they come. I'm still hoping he'll make a practice squad this year.

Looks like IK only made the practice squad in Buffalo. May only play against the Jets!

He has a chance. He cleared waivers and the Saints have 1 practice squad spot left.
