That might not be the only Sooners off of last season’s roster who will have a chance to extend their football careers playing at the next level.
Players selected in the seven rounds of the NFL Draft have a built-in advantage in terms of their chances of making an NFL roster. That is not the only pathway, however, for a prospect to catch on in the National Football League.
Free agency is another option, and at least four former OU players we know of to this point will have an opportunity to make an NFL team by going that route.
