Former Cougars in NFL see mixed success

With 15 members in the NFL, Houston is well-represented. However, not every former Cougar has fared well through five weeks of play.

Here’s who is doing well in their professional career and who isn’t:

Quarterback Kyle Allen – Carolina Panthers

Since being named starter for the Panthers after Cam Newton ‘s foot injury, Allen has played well in the NFL.

In his Sept. 29 game against the Arizona Cardinals, his first as starter, Allen completed 19 of 26 passes for 261 yards en route to a 38-20 win over former college teammate Kyler Murray.
