NFL teams finalized their rosters on Saturday, and with that we now know how many former NC State players will be on active NFL rosters when their season starts next week - the opening game on Thursday, however, will not feature any former State players.
NC State players on active rosters:
J.R. Sweezy - #64 - OG - Arizona Cardinals
For some reason, it feels like Sweezy is still protecting Russell Wilson in Seattle, but he now enters his second year with the Cardinals (and the final year of his contract).
Juston Burris - #31 - SS - Carolina Panthers
Burris is looking like he’ll be the starting Strong Safety for the Panthers this year after starting nine games for the Browns a year ago.
