14 former Buffs have signed NFL contracts in the last two years
BOULDER — The National Football League is taking notice of the Colorado football program.
Over the last two years, 14 Buffs have signed NFL contracts, the most in any two-year span in at least the last 15 years.
In 2017, eight of Mike MacIntyre's players signed NFL deals — four of whom were drafted and four more who put their names on free agent agreements after the draft was completed. Of those eight, five finished the year on NFL rosters.
