The NFL playoff field is set, and 20 players with Utah ties will be on this year's postseason rosters.
That is five fewer players than the 25 with local ties that made playoff rosters last season, and 26 percent of the 77 locals currently in the NFL made the postseason. Thirteen are on active rosters, with three on injured reserve and four on practice squads.
