Seven former NC State Football players have advanced to the 2024 NFL Playoffs.

Quarterback Russell Wilson and Linebacker Payton Wilson play for Pittsburgh (6 seed), who will play Baltimore (3 seed) in the Wild Card Round tonight at 8pm on Prime Video. The Ravens are 9.5-point favorites. This season, Pittsburgh and Baltimore split the series, with each team winning at home. With the Ravens being the higher seed, the game will be played in Baltimore. Payton Wilson is on every 2024 NFL All-Rookie team I’ve come across, and was 1 of the highest graded Linebackers overall in the NFL the season.
